S5 E3 | Ashes to Nash’s, Baby: A History of Cremation

Ever wondered why people started setting dead people on fire? We sure have! Our therapist says this isn’t a healthy thing to wonder, but what do they know? They haven’t studied ANY of the history of cremation, so we aren’t super inclined to take their opinion on this.  This isn’t a fun episode, per se, so just… go in knowing that. Well. Most of it IS fun, but there’s a section that is deeply unfun. I mean, it’s fun for an episode about burning dead bodies… you know what? You decide for yourself, and let us know. ⁠Support us on Patreon.⁠⁠  ⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us on BlueSky(@deathandfriends.bsky.social)⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us on instagram(@deathandfriendspodcast)⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Nash Flynn @itsnashflynn.bsky.social ⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Angel Luna @GuerrillaJokes.bsky.social ⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠This is a KnaveryInk podcast.⁠⁠⁠ Have you seen our NEWER and GAYER website? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.deathandfriends.gay/⁠
