Greetings Inmates! This week Madison is telling us all about dealing with death behind bars, she covers everything from prison furlough, what happens when you die in prison, and even on site hospice care. Afterwards, Spencer is giving us some fresh ideas for planning a service to remember with themed funerals! We’ve got some obituaries full of misadventure and of course, we’ve got some dumb.ass.criminalssss! 

New episodes come out every Thursday for free, with 1-week early access for Wondery+ subscribers.
