I must confess the results don't seem too relevant for my first search: as I recently lost a family member to it, I searched "philosophy suicide", and got the following:

* Post-Human Capitalism and Revolution: Detroit and Blade Runner 2049

* The voice in your head: How a movement of people who hear voices is reshaping our understanding of mental illness – and consciousness itself.

* The Ghosts of Mark Fisher

* The radicalism of Randolph Bourne: Bourne’s affinity with outsiders drove his vision of making North America a united states of communities. A century on, his writings have become more relevant than ever

* Is the quest for immortality worse than death?

* The Dangers of Meritocracy

So far only the 4th result seems more than just tangentially relevant, and I know of much more relevant mainstream podcast episodes specifically dealing with the philosophy of suicide, but none of those seem to come up.
