Wake up and smell the murder! (sorry)

Jackson and B.P. discuss the controversial subject of assisted suicide via an examination of the most famous face in the debate: Dr. Death himself, Jack Kevorkian.

This episode explores his fascinating life and divisive deeds.

Much to Jackson's chagrin, the hysteria and insanity that is the Momo Challenge hoax is discussed, which leads to a deeper discussion of bullying, suicide, and more.
