Show Notes
Sick of being sad at the departure of a loved one? Ever want to get married at a funeral? Feel like manipulating a corpse like a marionette?
Join the lads this week as they chat to Margaret Bonass Madden to find out about the games that Irish people played, and in some places still play, during wakes.
Think Weekend At Bernie's meets Angela's Ashes.
And as a bonus in part 1 Neil explains the strangest last will and testament ever uncovered and the lengths some people will go to to avoid being buried alive.
