    It’s always sad when an artist we know and love dies suddenly, especially if they’re young and in
    their prime, but for some unfortunate souls, the ‘why’ and the ‘how’ they departed this earth will
    maybe never come to light. In our season 2 finale of Heard This? Podcast, we’ll be digging into some of the strange and unexplained deaths of famous musicians. It’s a deep rabbit hole to fall down, so join us on our journey into the unknown.
