About this episode

Judith discusses the emotional relief of scattering ashes and the complexities of dealing with a loved one's affairs after death, while drawing parallels to Rupert Murdoch's family and popular media portrayals.

I feel a huge relief after putting the ashes in the ocean - whew. I urge you to get your loved one's paperwork done because you will be surprised by what happens when someone dies and how much you can't do on their behalf. Ruper Murdoch's family is like the Lannisters from Game of Thrones. Geesh. HBO's Succession had them profiled pretty good. dailydrill.io
