Where There's A Will, There's A Wake

By: Sony Music Entertainment
  • Summary

  • If you could plan your perfect death, what would you do? Join Kathy Burke as she chats to the likes of Dawn French, James Acaster and Jamali Maddix asking them questions like 'how do you want to die?', 'where are you going next?' and of course, 'who gets your prized possessions?'. It's a hilarious, irreverent, dark and sometimes moving podcast where our guests will see their death brought to life as they plan their final day from dawn to dusk and into the afterlife.

Dead funny!

Great podcast - good concept in taking the piss out of your own death and asking guests to come up with their fantasy funeral. Love Kathy Burke. Good selection of guests too.

Never disappoints.

I could listen to Kath pontificating on any subject in the sure and certain conviction my spirit will be lifted, my mood improved and comforted by the reminder that my own rhetoric isn't the only slightly risqué observation liberally sprinkled with the fucking vernacular 😆😉.

Utterly Brilliant 👍

I listened to the first series last year and I was sooo pleased to see there was another one. Danny Dyer has had me in absolute stitches. Katie Price also. I love Kathy Burke she's a genius. It's very funny indeed. BUT if you don't like bad language then it ain't for you!!!! 5 STARS!!

Brilliant by the legend Kathy Burke!

Such an unusual podcast theme but done so brilliantly! I absolutely love Kathy and this is just perfect. It brings humour to a subject we often ignore and really makes me laugh. Definitely recommend listening!

Where there’s a Kathy Burke, there’s a gay cackling like a banshee

I love love love this podcast. I only wish Paul O Grady had appeared on it before he went up to heaven
