77. The Post-Death Life of Dorothy Parker
Manage episode 383887302 series 3501284
Sometimes it's like, "Why is there a ghost in here?" Other times it's like, "Hey dumb-dumb, how about you don't store the ashes of an American literary treasure in your desk for 15 years if you don't want her to ghost so much?"
This is the strange story of Dorothy Parker's post-death life. Come for the ghost, stay for tooth math, solving ghosts, all doctors are catholic, Jeeves Harvey Oswald, teaspoon of ashes (DO NOT DRINK), the Marvel flapperverse, human cadaver prank opportunities.
