The Pizza Funeral
Podcast: Very Special EpisodesPublished On: Wed Apr 16 2025
Description: On a cold day in 1973, a crowd gathered on a farm for one of history's strangest funerals. It was an elite group, including the Governor of Michigan, bank presidents, and local dignitaries. Even Walter Cronkite sent a correspondent. But they weren’t mourning anyone human. No, this was a pizza-based catastrophe. * Hosted by Dana Schwartz, Zaron Burnett, and Jason EnglishWritten by Bess LovejoyProduced by Josh FisherEditing and Sound Design by Jonathan Washington and Josh FisherMixing and Mastering by Baheed FrazierAdditional Editing by Mary DooeResearch and Fact-Checking by Bess Lovejoy and Austin ThompsonGuest Voice Actor is Mike Coscarelli Original Music by Elise McCoyShow Logo by Lucy QuintanillaExecutive Producer is Jason English Special thanks to the Veterans History Project at the Library of Congress.
