Lori LoCicero and Lisa Pahl: The Death Deck

Death is not a game. Or is it? Listen to Lori LoCicero and Lisa Pahl talk about their bold new card game, “The Death Deck” and how it’s helping people have healthy conversations about dying — and living. From sample questions to poignant stories, they explain the reason they created the game and how they use humor and lively game-play to break down resistance and open up communication. Says Lori, “It’s so much easier to approach a parent or a spouse with a silly card game that has humor in it rather than sitting down and saying, ‘you know, we really should have this important conversation.’ By having a tool or device — something to almost blame it on — it’s a lot easier way to open that conversation.”
