I Want to Be the Strongest Person in Heaven with Jo Scott

Jo Scott (Joe Pera Talks With You) introduces a unique funeral feature, which rarely happens on This Is Your Afterlife, and that's just one part of a free-flowing conversation that includes talking about introducing the concept of death to kids, a side-investigation into my romantic relationship, and a memory Jo would choose to relive for investigative reasons! 

Content warning: motherhood, families, children crying, rough childhood, fear of Nothingness, me shitting on reincarnation, Defending Your Life.
