  • Huzzah!

    This is my new favorite podcast. I love how Michael does a re-enactment of the scenes, the “Google This S*+#” segment and the eulogies. These aspects and the wonderful interviews make this a truly one of a kind listening experience.

    Love this podcast! The host Michael Nathanson is funny, charming and engaging, and the interviews with actors who’ve died memorable deaths on TV and in movies are terrific. Love the format, the behind-the-scenes info, and the re-enactments by Nathanson. Highly recommend for any pop culture aficionados out there!
