About
<p>Have you ever wondered what happens to our bodies when we die? Or what a sky burial is? How the Oxford English Dictionary can have five separate definitions for the word "death"? Who invented embalming? And why on Earth do we stick dead people six feet under? If you're curious about any of these - good! I am too!</p><br><p>I'm Jasper and I am absolutely fascinated by death. So much so that I ditched my job as a bookseller and now spend my nine-to-five arranging funerals. Join me as I grab my (metaphorical) shovel to exhume all things death and dying and all the morbid morsels inbetween!</p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
