This Is Your Afterlife, Angela Oliver

Angela Oliver (actor, writer, teaching artist, Annoyance Theatre homie) DOES NOT want her ashes turned into a diamond, and she wants Kirk Franklin and God's Property to play her funeral. We talk about her museum vision of the afterlife, the scourge of grind culture, and I implore her to teach me "how to do the deserving thing."
