Death isn’t supposed to be funny—but Clifton and Shay somehow make it dangerously close. In the newest episode of Anything But CliShay, the duo dives straight into the one topic everyone avoids until they absolutely can’t: what happens when we die, and what it takes to prepare for the inevitable.

Clifton opens with the world’s most chaotic icebreaker—how many people die every day?—and Shay responds by unveiling her meticulously curated funeral plans stored in her Notes app. We’re talking hair length, nail color, makeup style, and a post-cremation travel itinerary that guarantees her ashes will have a more exciting life than most people alive. She wants a celebration of life with no one in black and zero chance of anyone stepping on her “dead body real estate.”

Clifton, on the other hand, is ready to slide into the afterlife on a budget plan, ideally unclaimed, burned, and billed to nobody. But beneath the dark humor lies something raw: the fear of losing the people you love, the uneven weight of grief, and the weird comfort in planning for what you can’t control.

Grave Expectations isn’t just an episode about death—it’s about living honestly, loving hard, and laughing at the things that scare us most. Listen now, before Shay starts planning your funeral too.
