Bring out your dead - and mock them mercilessly. It's alright, they don't get right of reply. On this week's episode we are joined by actor, writer and comedian Carrie Quinlan to discuss the witty, catty and tricky topic of the World's Worst Obituary. We have vengeful hit-pieces, touching tributes and euphemistic eulogies.

Inspired by some more contemporary controversy coming out of the House of Windsor, Ben and Barry examine the work of a more infamous royal whackjob. In 1597 James VI of Scotland released a treatise on necromancy, witchcraft, and how best to ward of the temptation of evil. We take a deep dive into it, with pit stops for unicorn snooker and depressed werewolves.

Got ourselves a crying, walking, sleeping, talking, living doll in the form of Dr. Kit Chapman returning to the show this week with a world of creepiness to explore. As we hunt down the world's worst doll, we uncover the second life of composer Alma Mahler, the failures of Thomas Edison and, of course, far too many sex dolls.
