Imagine you’re dying with a secret. Something you’ve never had the courage to tell your friends or family. Or a last wish – a task you need carried out before you can rest in peace. Now imagine there’s someone who can take care of all that, who has little respect for the living, but will do anything for the dead. Well, there is! He calls himself The Coffin Confessor and you're about to meet him. It’s a kooky and spooky episode 600 of The (13 year-old, award-winning) Small Business Big Marketing podcast.
A little more about Bill Edgar, AKA The Coffin Confessor

Put simply, he’s a one-of-a-kind professional businessman on a mission to make good on the last requests of his soon-to-be-deceased clients.
Bill’s been many things in his life including the son of one of Australia's most notorious gangsters, a homeless street kid, a maximum security prisoner, a family man, activist, philosopher and much, much more.
