Welcome to Season Two of Mortality and the Morgue! Rachelle does some housekeeping at the top of the episode to give news about the podcast network and the show's new format (bi-weekly episodes from now on!). Then she discusses the late actor, Heath Ledger, who died 15 years ago on January 22nd, 2008 when he was 28 years old.
Having just turned 28 herself, Rachelle reflects on the impact of Heath's death and career, his cause of death and misinformation surrounding his accidental overdose, her favourite movies of his, including The Dark Knight, Candy, and Knights Tale, and how film can immortalize artists.
