Frozen Head

5.0/5

Critic Rating

Hosted by Ash Kelley and Alaina Urquhart from the hit show Morbid.When 90-year-old Laurence Pilgeram drops dead on the sidewalk outside his condo, you might think that’s the end of his story. But, really, it’s just the beginning. Because Laurence and others like him have signed up to be frozen and brought back to life in the future. And that belief will pull multiple generations of the Pilgeram family into a cryonics soap opera filled with dead pets, gold coins, grenades, fist fights, mysterious packages, family feuds, Hall of Fame baseball legends, and frozen heads — lots of frozen...

Fiona Sturges • Financial Times Jan 3, 2023

"Much like Morbid, Frozen Head knows how to tell a story and delights in the gorier aspects of its subject matter...in Frozen Head, where the subject is cryonics, the tone works well, underlining as it does the madcap optimism, egotism and absurdity of individuals wanting to have their brains frozen in a quest for eternal life. For a podcast about death, Frozen Head is, improbably, a lot of fun."
