    Inside Farts

    We’re starting the new season of Death is Everything with a bang, or at least a long, protracted toot! Pass time (and certainly not anything else) with Marianne, Chris, Angel and sometimes Joey as they divulge crucial DIE Crew lore and commiserate over the horrors of modern living. Then enjoy a cut up of curious life-and-death stories. No cheese involved, but there are cute cat statues, a dose of legendary grave robbing, vampiric burials, and history’s coolest mine-hunting rat. Where will our rambling tangents and rumbling tummies take us today? Listen in to find out, Land of the Living!

    I Haven’t Been Pinched in Years

    Sit down and please answer this one simple but imperative question: Are you wearing something green? Oh lordy you’d better say yes because it’s St. Patrick’s Day, and the penalty for not wearing green is dire. Could it be…. mmmDEATH?!* Join the DIE Crew as we look into the origin of this most Irish of holidays, which in Death is Everything tradition involves healthy doses of Paganism and death. We take a look at the life of St. Patrick, his historic deeds, and his many Houdini-like escapes from captivity. Plus guess what: part of his name is not quite true, and it isn’t the “Patrick” part. Then we look into associated lore and symbolism for the holiday and, naturally, an associated gangland massacre, as is par for the course with holidays it would seem. Listen in while you “drain the shamrock,” but no driving during or after. Celebrate responsibly, Land of the Living! * Nope, sorry, it’s pinching. Not quite our cup of tea but it is what it is. #deathiseverything #DeathIsEverythingPodcast  #DIEwithMarianne #DIEwithMarianneandChris #DIEwithMCA #deathinpsiration #deathpodcast #LApodcast #takingchances #landoftheliving #StPatricksDay #StPatrick #Irish #Ireland #holidays #green #NotReallyASaint #DrainTheShamrock #NoBreadJustBeer #DontDrinkAndDrive #JusticeForTheSnakes Thanks for listening, Land of the Living!  Subscribe, and follow us on Instagram @die.podcast  for updates!  Check out deathiseverything.com for merchandise, our mailing list, and more!

    7 Minutes In Heaven - The Queen of Mean

    This week on 7 Minutes in Heaven we tell the tale of a notorious tax-evading New York real estate mogul with a larger-than-life personality and penchant for cruelty. No no no, not that one, we’re talking about Leona Helmsley, famously labeled the “Queen of Mean” for her scandalous ways, even from beyond the grave! But hey, at least she cared about the dogs of the world and her own precious dog Trouble (yes, that is the name), that has to count for something, right?

    But Wait, There’s More!

    It’s time for DIE Variety Hour, where we present you death-related stories to tickle your fancy! We present to you a rare case of someone mistaken for dead on the precipice of being cremated; a lottery for coveted Paris burial plots with a costly but cool catch; the terrifying answer to the common worry, “What if I don’t make it back onto the cruise ship before it leaves port?” (hint: death); and a kooky caste of nuns trying to make their way home. Join us for good times and hearty laughs… while you can! P.S. Welcome to the DIE Crew, Joey! He’s been on board writing blurbs and helping with show research for a few months now, so feel free to give him a ghostly disembodied wave as you listen. Cheers!

    7 Minutes In Heaven - Burial in Frozen Places

    What do you do when it is time to bury the deceased but the ground is frozen? Since we at DIE reside in sunny Los Angeles (sorry/not sorry, residents of places with “Real Weather”) it is a bit of a foreign concept, but one that our death-coded minds are nonetheless curious about, so today on 7 Minutes in Heaven we look at some crucial cold weather funerary practices. Come break the ice with us, Land of the Living! Or, well, you do that while we enjoy our blue skies and golden sunshine.

    My Spooky Bitch Genesis

    The classic adage “one person’s trash is another’s treasure” is apropos for this week’s guest. Jessica of Holzbrennen Studio is an artist who works with what she dubs “trashion”: clothing made from up-cycled discarded materials. Her works are both intricate pieces of fashion and an excellent way to repurpose refuse. We talk about the inspiration behind her projects, her goals and aspirations, and of course her outlook on death and burial. Tune in and check out Jessica’s amazing creations!

    7 Minutes In Heaven - Candle Safety

    We love candles here at DIE and are willing to bet there’s a good chance that you do too. Seriously, is the Venn Diagram of “death positive people” and “candle lovers” a circle? If not then it’s likely close! But open flames naturally bring with them risk. Luckily we’ve got you covered! Listen in to our Resident Candle Expert and “Fan of Burning Things” Marianne as she highlights key safety measures you should definitely have in mind when employing candles. Stay safe and burn bright, Land of the Living! #deathiseverything #DeathIsEverythingPodcast #7MinutesInHeaven#7MinutesInHeavenwithMarianneandChris #7MinutesInHeavenwithMCA #7MinutesInHeavenwithDIEpod #deathpodcast #LApodcast #takingchances #landoftheliving #candles #candlesafety #burningthings Thanks for listening, Land of the Living!  Subscribe, and follow us on Instagram @die.podcast  for updates!  Check out deathiseverything.com for merchandise and more!
