Before We Go is a narrative podcast hosted and produced by Dr. Shoshana Ungerleider—physician, science journalist, Oscar-nominated documentary producer, host of TED Health, and founder of End Well, a nonprofit reshaping how we think about life’s final chapter.
Season 1 followed Shoshana’s deeply personal journey through her father’s terminal cancer diagnosis, a path that forced her to confront her own mortality and illuminated unexpected truths about love, loss, and meaning.
Now, Season 2 opens the conversation wider. Shoshana sits down with people from all walks of life to explore what it means to live alongside mortality. Actor Yvette Nicole Brown shares her story of caregiving. Comedian Patton Oswalt reflects on grief through the eyes of his child. Actor Alexandra Breckenridge talks about navigating loss, and entrepreneur Mark Cuban lays out his vision for transforming healthcare. Alongside these voices, leading experts help us ask the deeper questions—about love, resilience, and what it means to face the inevitable with courage and compassion.
