Where do we go after we die?

Welcome to Talking Heads, a talk show about death, witches, grief, and ghosts. Hosted by Maggie May Harder, award-winning comedian, orphan, dyke.

Katie was hit head-on by an impaired driver going over 100km. In an accident that should have killed her, she walked away with only a sprained wrist, broken foot, and a mysterious photo capturing ribbons of light at the exact time of the collision.

BJ was on life support for three weeks with Guillenne Barre Syndrome. After being neurologically paralyzed, he relearned to walk and talk, and in his new lease on life, threw himself into drag.

La Catrina is here. Galattticaaa, adorned in flowers and painted in bones as death herself, shares stories of dìa de muertos and loved ones that have received signals during this powerful time of honouring the dead.

A shadow figure appears next to the TV, suddenly gone to white noise. An ominous presence in the ensuite bathroom brings about bad luck. Alone in bed, except for the spirit that's creaking the bed frame. Sally has been a conduit for ghosts, benevolent and otherwise, for years.

And MORE!!

Come to giggle, to get scared, to make space for grief and release it.
