In this episode we go rogue - freestyling our way through whatever comes to mind - from the strange pre-Christmas funeral industry lull, to the traumatic experience of a haircut that can't decide whether its an overgrown pixie or a bob with a whole lot of undercut attitude - the struggle is real people.

Safe to say, we've been through some stuff in tge last few weeks and knuckling down to a serious and detailed mortuary chat was not really within our scope of capability.

So sit back, relax and let the discussion unfold - we hope you are enjoying December, not wishing it away as many do this busy time of year. We urge you to set your boundaries, do something that makes you smile (like listening to this podcast) and above all, be kind to each other.

Loving you sic, peeps,

T&T xx

In this episode we chat with Jess, a paranormal investigator who enjoys exploring the bridge between the living and the dead.
Most Saturday nights you'll find Jess and a group of nervous clients meandering through the basements, tunnels and backrooms of some of the creepiest buildings in the UK from court rooms and mansions to creepy council houses and everything in between.
And during her years pursuing this unlikely hobby on communicating with the spirit world, Jess has seen a few things... she's been punched by the Jailer, and run squealing from the room after an unexpected encounter.
She's watched tables walk upstairs, catballs fly across the room and seen more flashes of light, shadowy figures and weird goings on that you would care to imagine.
We were pretty excited to chat with Jess, who has been a friend of our YouTube channel for a few years now - we hope you enjoy this podcast.
Oh, and any questions for Jess, email us at areyoudyingtoknow@gmail.com and we will ask her to answer them for you.
Til next time,
Take care,
T&T xx

In this episode we chat with Bec from the UK who has recently achieved her dream of becoming a mortician to help families of the deceased. And with her sights firmly set on becoming an embalmer, Bec has some fantastic insights on the challenges and triumphs of working in the mortuary, and some helpful advice for anyone who may be keen to get into this type of role.

In you're interested in knowing more on what it's like to actually work with the deceased, check out our YouTube channel where we publish two videos a week on what goes on behind the mortuary doors.

Thanks for joining us

In this episode we talk about the process of death, and touch on many of the questions and decisions that need to be made, so that you can be prepared if and when death affects your family.

It's a step away from our usual mortuary and embalming talk, but after speaking with hundreds and hundreds of people, we have realised that most people first encounter their local funeral director when they are forced into planning the funeral of a loved one who has died. Unfortunately, this is not the best time, when shrouded by loss and grief, to be making snap decisions on inclusions that will shape the way your person is farewelled, and remembered.

So what we are saying to you is this - get educated. Know what your choices are before you are in this situation. And, if possible, know what your loved ones - your parents, spouse or partner, siblings and kids would want for their final sendoff, long before those decisions need to be acted upon.

We mention the Natural Death Care Centre in this pod, so as promised, here is the link: www.naturaldeathcarecentre.org

We hope you enjoy this pod. Any questions, flick us an email at areyoudyingtoknow@gmail.com

In this podcast we discuss the fear of death and suggest some strategies to alleviate this fear that have worked for us and others in the past. Whether it's the fear of your own death, of someone you love, even a pet dying - or the fear of your body being vulnerable after death, these are all common fears that people have been writing in to us for years.

Now, as we say in the pod, we are not trained counsellors, and these strategies are only suggestions - so please, if you are struggling with any feelings that are affecting the way you live your life, we really recommend you seek professional help - your doctor or a telephone helpline is a great place to start - there's no need to suffer alone.

We hope you enjoy this pod.

Til next time,

stay safe,

In this episode we share a few spooky stories from the mortuary and beyond - just for a change of pace and something different. While recording this we were trying out a new location to improve sound quality - check our insta for more details - but let's just say it made for added 'freak factor' for us during recording.

We hope you enjoy this pod and a huge thanks to everyone who sent in their spooky stories.

Til next time,

Take care,

In this episode we take a walk down memory lane to a chat we had in the historic Nundah Cemetery in Brisbane, Queensland. People often ask how we met and how and why we started our pod and YouTube channel and we answer these questions and more in today's podcast. We hope you enjoy.

In this pod, we revisit a conversation about some of the more unusual places/circumstances people have died in, under mortician/embalmer Tracy's watch.

As heart retching and devastating death can be, it forms a part of all of our lives and so occasionally, we like to venture to the lighter side of things and this, friends, is one of those times. If you watch us on YouTube, you may have heard one or two of these before - but believe us - there is a never-ending stream of lighter, quirky stories to share, and we are constantly amazed by the vastly different type of deaths, and also ways people grieve or celebrate life.

We hope you enjoy our podcast and take this discussion in the spirit it was intended.
