Bone Marry Bury

Dear Media

2021 was the worst year of Allie’s life: she was fired from her stupid waitressing job, dumped by a guy she was pity-f*cking, and evicted from her apartment. This is NOT how she thought life would look at 26. On New Year’s Eve, Allie heads to a party where she plans to get plastered and leave this mess of a year behind. 2022 is going to be her year, she can just feel it! Spoiler: it’s definitely not going to be her year. But this party is still important: Gabe — Allie’s best friend and our narrator — tells us that by the end of the month she will f*ck, marry, and kill three different people… and they’re all at this party. Starring Sarah Hyland and Harvey Guillén, "Bone Marry Bury" is the raunchy reverse whodunnit you didn't know you needed. Ready to play? read less

Our Editor's Take

Bone Marry Bury parodies the mystery genre. This podcast tells the fictional story of Allie. She's 26, hates her job and ex-boyfriend, and is ready to party on New Year's Eve. But the new year promises something different than she hopes for. Best friend Gabe predicts three people are about to become her victims. Will she kiss (imagine another word), marry, and kill three partygoers?

If anyone is looking for fresh entertainment, Bone Marry Bury offers plenty of it. Modern Family's Sarah Hyland's hilarious performance as Allie will keep audiences laughing. Allie is white, college-educated, and has an inner-eye balance problem. She thinks she deserves better than she's getting. Harvey Guillén voices Gabe. Like the narrator of Gossip Girl, he knows how to heighten the listeners' anticipation. Guillén is most famous for his role as Guillermo on What We Do in the Shadows.

This somewhat inappropriate podcast revels in the ridiculous. One day soon after New Year's Eve, Gabe gets a call. It's Allie, and she thinks someone is dead. To no one's surprise, he guesses that the death is Allie's fault. Yes, it is. Best buds will help each other avoid murder charges — or so Bone Marry Bury suggests. When friends offer to bury bodies for each other, they don't mean it. Or do they? Will Gabe help Allie? And how many more victims will follow?

Like the best scripted podcasts, Bone Marry Bury's soundtrack and sound effects amplify the drama and comedy. The voice must reveal every emotion and reaction. Every line matters. Hyland brings a delightful zaniness to her role as Allie. It's hard not to cheer her on, even as people end up dead.

In this seven-part series, podcast listeners hear about failed interviews and romantic escapades. There is also a wedding, a divorce, and, of course, the murders. Through it all, besties Gabe and Allie stay by each other's side. Bone Marry Bury is a story of friendship in the best and worst of times.
