Death and Friends episodes

April 18, 2024 S5 E7 | Do You Smell What The Rocks Are Cooking? Surprise, It’s Death!: A History of The Paris
Angel and Nash are enjoying a lovely holiday in Paris. Or they would be, if they could expense it. Since they can’t, join them as they deep dive on the city’s catacombs and how they came to be. Hey, if you thought the bone mudslides of early Plymouth Colony (The First Thanksgiving Episode) were fun, we bet you’ll love this! (Hint: Yeah, more bone mudslides!)
In other news, we’d like to formally apologize for our French accents. We’re bad at them, and yes, we feel bad. Not enough to change (just like your toxic ex) but enough to ask you to stay (also like your toxic ex).

April 04, 2024 S5 E6 | Baby Fight Club: Medical Doctors versus Midwives
Oh good, men are taking over women’s medicine. And history. And body autonomy. And political rights. And whatever else this list doesn’t have on it already. Ladies, get ready to hear the unfortunate true story of how 19th century men think the female brain works and how they forced their way into childbirth after a millennia of pretending they couldn’t hear babies being born.
Look, medical science is great and all, and we truly appreciate modern healthcare, or we would if we could afford to have seen a doctor in the last 4 years. (This podcast takes place in the U.S.) But getting here…wasn’t always the best look. Dr James Marion Sims is in this episode, and …well, that’s your warning.

March 07, 2024 S5 E5 | Shut Up About The Sun: Ahkenaten or How I learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Sun
Back to Egypt! And this time we don't make fun of anyone... okay so we make a little fun... alright we gave it an honest try. Come learn why monotheism can be bad sometimes (all the time), now with 30% more desert. Nash and Angel also learn why having a super hot supportive girlfriend (Nefertiti) can lead to international conflict and historical erasure.

Did you ever wonder why the ghost of your grandmother keeps harassing you with the local cats? No? Well maybe it’s because you stopped writing her letters. Join Nash and Angel as they learn all about why the living are terrified of the dead, and what you could maybe do about it. Also Harry Houdini is in the episode in a way you would not see coming. Yay, magic!

February 08, 2024 S5 E3 | Ashes to Nash’s, Baby: A History of Cremation
Ever wondered why people started setting dead people on fire? We sure have! Our therapist says this isn’t a healthy thing to wonder, but what do they know? They haven’t studied ANY of the history of cremation, so we aren’t super inclined to take their opinion on this.

This isn’t a fun episode, per se, so just… go in knowing that. Well. Most of it IS fun, but there’s a section that is deeply unfun. I mean, it’s fun for an episode about burning dead bodies… you know what? You decide for yourself, and let us know.

January 25, 2024 S5 E2 | Cut My Life into Pieces: History of the Autopsy
Let's go back to Egypt (and other places!) for the original "show me what you're made of." How far back? *checks notes* Pretty damn far. Let’s talk about the origins of looking inside your bits (non derogatory) and how it’s done.

January 24, 2024 S5 E0.5 | Live Jazz, Die Strung Part 2: Before The 27 Club, It Was, Like, EVERY Jazz Musician, And With Heroin
Do you know why I pulled you over? I saw you playing saxophone in the club earlier. You have a license for that? In the depressingly-thrilling conclusion to part one, Angel, Nash, and the ever-obnoxious jazz guy Dom explore how New York City made the jazz life even harder than it already was.

What do bebop music, and German big pharma, and a bunch of heroin-prescribin’ doctors in Kentucky have in common? Jazz! (*Does jazz hands.*) The show’s editor, audio engineer, and not-quite-Chicagoan, Dom, joins Nash and Angel for some shulie-a-bop-a-doo-vah-day high times.
