Summary

Well, Dear Guest, how do you feel about getting a little dirty? (Not like that!) Join us tonight! - as we slip into the slime with Bog Bodies!! How old are they? How did they all get into the bogs in the first place? What kind of fashion sense did they have? What kind of tea do they prefer? Visit The Reading Room and hear your Host, Miranda Merrick, get down and dirty with: A Bevy of Bog Bodies (No bog bodies will be harmed, molested, or bathed during this reading...probably.)

Special Thanks to Sounds Like an Earful Music Supply for the amazing music AND sound design during this episode.
