I really enjoyed being a part of this episode of the Legal Deac podcast — hope you enjoy it too!

In this episode, we explore the history, nuances, and quirks of funeral and cemetery law in the US and talk to students and professors at Wake Forest Law who helped legalize human composting as a new method of disposition.
