DEADPOD is an all-new podcast hosted by Absolute Radio's Andy Bush that explores society's morbid curiosity about death.
Andy and co-host Brian Murphy aim to change the fact that talking about death is often considered taboo, as they explore all aspects of death in this weekly podcast.
Famous deaths in TV dramas, villainous deaths in popular fiction, dead technology, bizarre burial rituals of ancient civilizations, incredibly bizarre historical deaths…they cover it all.
The first episode focuses on human sacrifice. The Wicker Man, made famous by the 1973 film, can be traced back to Julius Caesar's account of Celtic Druids making large wicker dolls, filling them with offerings and sacrifices, and burning them as part of a religious ritual. Do you know?
DEADPOD is produced and distributed by Lock It In, a production studio specializing in talent-driven comedy and entertainment podcasts.
In May of this year, the trio of podcast quiz guests Bush, Will Nicholls (former vice president of content development at Universal Music), and sports journalist Matt Cutler, who was behind the documentary Pirates vs. the Premier League was established in
DEADPOD will be available on Wednesday, November 13th.
