It's the subject of countless podcasts, documentaries, films, stories, plays, TV shows, board games, etc., but when a comedian tells jokes about murder, the audience instantly tenses up. In part 1 of this 2 part episode with AJ DiCosimo, one-liner assassin and contributor to MAD Magazine and The New Yorker, we discuss why this is, and how to take a touchy topic and make it funny.

Special thanks to Jim Norton.
