This week Madison touches on some wild ancient beliefs surrounding pregnant women and funerals! Next, Spencer is back with some more wild last will and testaments. We’ve got an obituary for a gal who lived life to the fullest, one for a guy who begrudgingly showed up to his final soiree and of course, we’ve got some dumb.ass.criminalllllls!
