We close out the season at DIE with a last 7 Minutes in Heaven comprising a pair of tidbits for our deathly connoisseurs. Are you a proud bearer of quality tattoos that you would hate to see pass into the great beyond along with your temporary flesh vessel (or body if you want to be boring about it)? Marianne highlights a unique service that removes tattoos for after death preservation. Then she details some clever Prohibition-era ingenuity in the form of Zinkers, headstones stuffed to the gills with your libation of choice. Celebrate the end of Spring with us* in style, Land of the Living!* Please ignore the date on your lying calendarLinks of Note:Tattoo preservation after deathhttps://www.youtube.com/shorts/fgK3xS-s834Zinkers!https://www.rockngem.com/zinc-headstones-zinkers/https://www.fredminnick.com/2013/01/01/the-grave-that-once-held-liquor/#deathiseverything #DeathIsEverythingPodcast #7MinutesInHeaven#7MinutesInHeavenwithMarianneandChris #7MinutesInHeavenwithMCA #7MinutesInHeavenwithDIEpod #deathpodcast #LApodcast #takingchances #landoftheliving #RandomDeathStuff #TattooPreservation #Zinkers #Prohibition #GoodbyeSpringHelloSummerThanks for listening, Land of the Living!

There are many notable examples of animals having heightened senses well beyond the capabilities of humans. Could this include the capability to sense illness and death? We’re bringing it up for a reason because this week we highlight examples of helpful animals who sniff out health dangers ranging from cancer to bird flu. Then we hear about animals and their relationship and potential for understanding mortality, including one incredible cat with a tendency to cuddle up to those on the precipice of death. Come join us for some cute critter time, Land of the Living!Links of NoteThe scent of sickness: 5 questions answered about using dogs – and mice and ferrets – to detect diseasehttps://source.colostate.edu/the-scent-of-sickness-5-questions-answered-about-using-dogs-and-mice-and-ferrets-to-detect-disease/Does My Dog Know If I’m Sick?https://www.akc.org/expert-advice/advice/does-my-dog-know-if-im-sick/17 Animals That Can Sense Death (And What They Do About It)https://exploringanimals.com/animals-that-can-sense-death-and-what-they-do-about-it/How to Tell If Animals Can Understand Deathhttps://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8789628/Can Dogs Sense When People Are Going to Die?https://www.akc.org/expert-advice/advice/can-dogs-sense-death/Cat in nursing home senses imminent deathhttps://animals.howstuffworks.com/animal-facts/pet-sixth-sense.htm#deathiseverything #DeathIsEverythingPodcast  #DIEwithMarianne #DIEwithMarianneandChris #DIEwithMCA #deathinpsiration #deathpodcast #LApodcast #takingchances #landoftheliving #SmellingIllness #AnimalsSensingDeath #rodents #canids #mustelids #wolves #dogs #mice #ferrets #OlfactoryNeurons #HumansBestFriend #SeizureDetectingDogs #OscarTheOracleCatThanks 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!

Clowns are known for being bearers of mirth and joy. This week on 7 Minutes in Heaven, Marianne recounts the tale of one clown who was instead a gateway to despair and death in the form of the Yarmouth Bridge Disaster. Or maybe this was the Clown Agenda all along, for who knows what lurks beneath that caked on makeup, comically large shoes, and devious red nose? Something nefarious, that’s what I think. Regardless of your associated fandom or phobia, listen in and clown around with us!Links of NoteAbout the Yarmouth Suspension Bridge and accompanying disasterhttps://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-norfolk-24240357https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yarmouth_suspension_bridgeNelson the Clownhttps://windowthroughtime.wordpress.com/2024/05/04/nelson-the-clown/#deathiseverything #DeathIsEverythingPodcast #7MinutesInHeaven#7MinutesInHeavenwithMarianneandChris #7MinutesInHeavenwithMCA #7MinutesInHeavenwithDIEpod #deathpodcast #LApodcast #takingchances #landoftheliving #clowns #BathtubClown #NelsonTheClown #YarmouthSuspensionBridge #YarmouthBridgeDisaster #BridgeDisasters #AreClownsEvilYesAndWhyThanks for listening, Land of the Living! Subscribe, and follow us on Instagram @die.podcast  for updates! Check out deathiseverything.com for merchandise and more!If you want to say hello, email us at [email protected] .

Ahh, childhood. For many of us, our early years can be seen as a time when the weight of the world had not yet been hoisted onto our collective shoulders. The days of playgrounds, toys, and the innocence of nursery rhymes. But upon further inspection, underneath those schoolground songs lie dark and morbid tales. Why do so many of these silly numbers revolve around plague, death, and serious injury? This week the DIE Gang examines some notoriously twisted nursery rhymes and the intention behind them, if there was any. We spend inordinate time harping on the dangers of violent media when maybe we should take a closer look at exactly what was happening with Old Mother Hubbard and those poor Three Blind Mice!#deathiseverything #DeathIsEverythingPodcast #DIEwithMarianne #DIEwithMarianneandChris #DIEwithMCA #deathinpsiration #deathpodcast #LApodcast #takingchances #landoftheliving #NurseryRhymes #ButWhy #GreatParenting #ProblematicOldEnglish #TheEndOfInnocence #OddLessonPlan #ThreeBlindMiceForHolloween #ChrisRecountsTheDicemanUnfortunately #Can’tTrustBigEgg #ShrekReferences #ThatPoorDog #MarianneAndChrisAcapellaThanks for listening, Land of the Living!

Some people are afraid to die. That’s understandable. With that in mind we’re going to try to bring some levity to what can be a dark subject by highlighting unique deaths that we found to be rather funny. Yeah, we know, morbid humor, but hear us out and judge for yourselves, Land of the Living! We’re not trying to poke fun at anyone’s particular unfortunate death, although some of these are classic, “But why?!” examples of poor life choices. So listen in and find gratitude in your own (hopefully) mundane ending.#deathiseverything #DeathIsEverythingPodcast  #DIEwithMarianne #DIEwithMarianneandChris #DIEwithMCA #deathinpsiration #deathpodcast #LApodcast #takingchances #landoftheliving #EmbarrasingDeaths #UniqueDeaths #DeathByBeard #ThroughTheLookingGlass #hubris #YouAreWhatYouEat #lawyers #DontHoldItIn #NiagraFalls #DeathByTheFoot #ErfurtLatrineDisaster #HumanCandle #ButWhyThanks 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!

This week on Death is Everything we continue our deep dive (climb?) of the deadly K2 by considering what goes into the exploratory spirit that leads people to risk their lives for glory. Hurray for adventurers! We then, to everyone’s surprise, recount the tragedies that befell said brave sojourners during the disastrous 1986 and 1995 expeditions. They died doing what they loved and that’s what matters. Hey, future K2 climbers: please, PLEASE listen to the weather forecast and observations of those with experience before climbing this treacherous mountain. Please? You’ve been warned!RIP to Marianne’s precious BIC Atlantis, 2019-2026, your heroic deeds will be remembered.K2 InfoHigh-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-altitude_pulmonary_edema1986 K2 disasterhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1986_K2_disaster1995 K2 disasterhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1995_K2_disaster#deathiseverything #DeathIsEverythingPodcast  #DIEwithMarianne #DIEwithMarianneandChris #DIEwithMCA #deathinpsiration #deathpodcast #LApodcast #takingchances #landoftheliving #K2 #mountaineering #mountainclimbing #explorers #WorldsDeadliestMountain #MountainsAreEverything #RIPDudleyWolfe #TheWolfeK2Curse #YourBodyNeedsOxygen #JoeyStopsCorrectingPeople #ChrisDiesOfHypoxia #RIPMariannesFavoritePenThanks 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!
