The comedian turns her attention to mortality, covering birth, life, death and the afterlife, in a collection of lockdown recordings made at home and in her local park. Beginning with birth, she ponders such questions as: Do twins share a soul or do they get one each? Why do new mothers not bury their placentas and plant a tree on top? and Who's blocked the toilet again?
