  Ep 244: Are Millennial Killing the Public Execution Industry? - Paris Morgues

  Oct 15, 202552 min

  So guys, I’m not gonna lie, I raw-dogged this episode. There’s some rough content at the end where Casey and I talk about the death of family members as well as the death of pets and animals in general and we didn’t exactly put a trigger warning on it because we didn’t expect to have emotions happen. Also I cried so… sorry not sorry. Anyway, Casey talks about the French morgues and the creative way they came up with to try to identify unknown bodies.

  Oct 1, 202536 min

  An incredible woman who would have risen through the ranks of the political sphere had she just not been disabled and a woman. Virginia Hall was a woman who led an interesting, tumultuous and dangerous life in the name of what she thought was right and what she was passionate about. Like I said, one hell of an Aries.
