Happy Thursday Geoffs, we’ve got quite the show for you this week! Spencer starts us off with a little lesson on naming a baby after a deceased loved one, also known as a necronym. Then Madison takes us through some nutty inventors who found themselves victims of their own creations. We’ve got an obituary for a sugar daddy that was anything but sweet, and one for someone who wanted to ensure his story got told. OH we didn’t forget, we’ve also got some dumb.ass.criminallllllllls! 

New episodes come out every Thursday for free, with 1-week early access for Wondery+ subscribers.
