Death and FriendsS5 E13 | Nominative Determination: The Time A Slaver Ship Captain Called Joseph White Was Brutally MurderedWelcome back, Skeleton Army! I
We don't often support ship captains being murdered, but when we do, it's slave driving Captain Joseph White. How will his large fortune be inherited? Per Capita or Per Stirpes?
My money is on the one that rhymes with herpes.

Death and FriendsS5 E12 | Teenage Lobotomy: Walter Freeman and the Ice PickDISCLAIMER:
Hi everybody, this is Angel. A quick reminder, Death and Friends is not a podcast for the light of heart. Dark and serious subjects may come up. Listener discretion is advised.
This episode, we talk about a different kind of death. If you read the title and thought, "oh i like The Ramones," clearly this will be light hearted. It is not. Not even a little bit. Attempts at jokes will be made, but quite frankly considering how much mental health treatment still has to go. This one is a downright bummer. 2024-07-2539 min

Join Nash and Angel as they try to parse out the most confusingly planned crime of the century, and decide for yourself whether Jack the Ripper abandoned cheery old East End London for small-town Scotland to murder his own wife.

She definitely didn’t put herself there, and the guy that did is currently at the Dundee Police Station telling them he didn’t kill her, but he did shove her in there five days ago, and maybe he’s also admitting to being Jack the Ripper?

Oh wait, just kidding. In today’s completely hashtag-relatable episode, come hear Nash and Angel learn about the other time these things happened in tandem - and why the 1910s were not better at coping at basically everything. Also, this entire thing is probably Kansas’s fault, despite the name “Spanish Flu”. So that’s… fun?

Death and FriendsS3 E1 | We’re Going Down, Down In a Sinkable Ship: Are You There God? It's Me, The TitanicAngel and Nash are back, and worse than ever. It’s been too long! Your hair looks nice. Love the vibe. In today’s episode, they tackle the story of the very, very unsinkable ship which is, at present, sunk to the bottom of the ocean.

This episode has fewer sex scenes than the movie! (not none. just fewer. ;) don't worry)
