Episode Synopsis


*Heads up—this episode is not for the faint of heart. We’re talking about real-life autopsies, tragic events, and the behind-the-scenes work of a medical examiner. It’s absolutely fascinating, but may make you squirm at times. If you usually listen with your family or young kids, you may want to save this one for later or pop in some headphones.*Think your job is intense? Try spending your days solving murders… and your nights hosting horror movie festivals. We’re joined by Dr. Leon Kelly—retired coroner, current medical examiner, and co-founder of the Six Feet Under Horror Fest—for a fascinating (and yes, sometimes chilling) conversation. He shares what it’s really like working in a morgue, the wildest moments from the job, the truth behind local legends, and why horror movies are best watched in a crowd.MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODEThe Rabbit HoleRoadHouse CinemasPICKS OF THE WEEKGarden of the Gods Market & Cafe at Homestead CollectiveOro RestaurantWE LOVE OUR SPONSORSCore Collective Core Collective Pilates is a boutique studio dedicated to helping clients build strength, flexibility, and confidence through expert-led, personalized Pilates sessions.
