“This show is fantastic, it makes hearing all the sad and depressing things people did bearable.
As they finally get their names dragged with plenty of comedic justice.”

“The JK Rowling and James Joyce episodes were so funny I laughed so hard I thought I was gonna be sick. Hoots and Caelan are fantastic at volleying and their sense of humour is brilliant”

“These podcasts seem to get darker and darker and are brilliant. The James Joyce “love” letters had me laughing out loud in an airport. I thought security was going to have me removed.”

“This podcast pulls up the nastiest people and drags those corpses through the mud. Our fabulous hosts provide context and comedy to these harrowing stories, that leaves one appreciative of deaths cold grasp. Come dance on some graves with us!”

“I, like some of the others, am a first-time podcast rater, and I’ve only been listening for a few days, but I am HOOKED! I didn’t think it was possible to find queer joy, macabre humor and deeply-felt compassion for victims of injustice. I am a life-long citizen of OKC, and appreciated how well...”Read full review »

“So this is generally a very funny and cathartic podcasts to hear about what now dead people were up to, mostly dunking on fools, but occasionally celebrating a problematic or genuine fave. It’s great, but I’m just here to infodump about reptiles for a bit, and to roast our hosts for not...”Read full review »
“A necessary corrective to our celebrity-obsessed culture’s tendency to rehabilitate the reputations of society’s malefactors once they’re safely in the ground. Some episodes are RIPped from today’s headlines where the body’s still warm, others target historical creeps and weirdos long turned to...”Read full review »

“Look, some people are terrible but have a great PR team in life (and death) and we need to be reminded that just because you died that doesn’t mean you’re suddenly a great person. So here is the podcast just for that. Learn about all sorts of horrible historic figures who still get way more...”Read full review »

“There are many podcasts that talk about terrible people and terrible things that we have no individual power to change overnight. But this podcast allows me to look back on terrible people of the terrible past with the reassurance that they are terribly and deservedly dead. 5 stars, no notes.”

“A great idea for a podcast, well researched and funny. It’s good to hear the people in history who deserve it getting a good rinsing. One star off because at times the hosts talk over each other too much and my neurodiverse little brain finds that hard to listen to.”
