OBITCH we're far from the gallows now....

Happy Thursday Geoffs!! This week Madison had us cracking up with some gallows humor, and Spencer has a WILD scandal that just broke in the UK that has us concerned about the funerary world over there. We’ve got an obituary for a gal with some strong opinions, one that got it all wrong and of course, we’ve got some dumb.ass.criminallllls!
