Carole's monologue is called Funeral Story and it is written and performed by Carole Pluckrose with music, effects and editing by Chris Gregory.  The story is entirely fictional and the characters are not intended to represent any particular individual or individuals.   The recording was made via zoom and there are a couple of slight glitches for which we apologise.
