The Last Word Podcast

Nastassia Jones, Co-Founder of the Last Hurrah Funerals and Comedian Jonathan Schuster invite a different legend each week to come and plan their final farewell. From location, tunes, and final disposition, each episode follows the trio scheming grand and often weirdly specific and personal funeral wishes. Nothing is off-limits here. The Last Word tosses hushed tunes and solemn discussions for lively, wrong-town chats that ultimately make conversations about death a touch less intimidating.
