I Ship It

176 - Dead Moms Club

Listen Later

There are many tropes that have endured for the ages, but none quite so popular as the Dead Mom Phenomenon. Everywhere we look in films, books, TVs shows, etc. moms are dropping like flies. Em is joined once again by two lovely motherless mongrels, Carly and Farleigh to breakdown why moms are such easy targets in fiction, talk about our favorite fictional moms, and of course, get off topic at least a few times.
