Marty is back!

This week we discuss weird burials throughout our state, beginning with the Great Pizza Funeral of 1973! Don't mind Angie; she was a little too excited talking about pizza and called them Michigan and Cheese pizzas, which I'm sure are great, but not exactly what we were discussing.

Also, Marty forgot this is a family show and he said the "s" word. Sorry, Moms and Dads! ;)

We hope you enjoy! If you liked this episode, don't forget to tell your friends!
