This week, we're celebrating all kinds of mums - but no, that isn't in observance of America's Mother's Day holiday this upcoming Sunday! No, the collection of mums we're discussing are of a decidedly drier type: mummified human remains.

And these aren't the millennia-old corpses of ancient Egyptian Pharoahs; no, all the mummies we're discussing come from the last century (and change) and all across the world.

From a drag queen's closet in New York City to a musty Sicilian catacomb to Moscow's Red Square to a D&D style booby trap that holds the body of one of Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber's greatest inspirations, follow us on a globe-trotting tour of the last 104 years' most fascinating mummies.

(Note for our beloved listeners: We will be "off" next week, as Carrie will be out of state for a business trip. But don't worry - we'll see you again Thursday after next!)
