TRAGIC CELEBRITY DEATHS: Reggae legend Peter Tosh, plus Hollywood starlet Brittany Murphy

9/16/2025
This week on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast, Geordie & Michelle discuss two tragic celebrity deaths... Geordie heads to Jamaica this episode to look at the life and tragic death of reggae legend Peter Tosh. On September 11, 1987, when Peter Tosh was brutally murdered in his own home, the world was stunned to lose a musical icon. But for the people who were with Peter in his last horrifying moments, they all told police they recognised his murderer – a friend of the singer called Denis ‘Leppo’ Lobban. So why did Denis turn from friend to murderer? What was his motivation? What did Peter do to Denis – if anything? Listen now! When 32-year-old Hollywood actress Brittany Murphy suddenly died of pneumonia and anaemia in her home in December 2009, her death was ruled accidental but preventable. But five months later, when her sketchy husband Simon Monjack also died from pneumonia and anaemia, the conspiracy theories went wild about what was REALLY happened. Was black mould involved? How about drugs? Coercive control? Did the government have something to do with it? Listen now to find out more. So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus chat about Priscilla Queen of the Desert, vape guns, language mishaps and more, only on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast.

MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE: The story of 'baby killer' Kathleen Folbigg, plus the wrongful shooting of Stephen Waldorf

9/9/2025
This week on Eavesdroppin’, Geordie & Michelle discuss two miscarriages of justice... When Kathleen Folbigg's son died from SIDS in Australia in 1989, it was a tragedy for her and her husband Craig. So they tried for a second child, who tragically died from epilepsy, aged 8 months, in 1991. When the Folbigg's third child died aged 10 months from a respiratory infection, suspicious were raised. And when the couple's fourth child died, the finger was pointed at Kathleen. There was no evidence, only some sad writings in a diary, yet she was charged with murder and manslaughter and sentenced to 30 years in prison. For 20 years, Kathleen maintained her innocence from behind bars - and then the science of genetics changed everything. Listen now to find out more about Kathleen's story, the junk science behind 'Meadow's law' and the international scientific community who helped free and innocent woman. Geordie follows with an horrific case of mistaken identity. As Stephen Waldorf sat in the front seat of a yellow Mini on January 14, 1983, in London, he had no idea that he was being hunted by police. When the Mini hit a traffic jam, British police flew into action, shooting Stephen at almost point-blank range amidst heavy traffic. What they didn't realise was that they had mistaken him for escaped cross-dressing criminal David Martin. At the time, Stephen was a 26-year-old film editor who was in the wrong car at the wrong time. Listen now to find out what happened to Stephen and David Martin, and how this tragic incident led to a series of significant reforms to armed police policy and training in the United Kingdom. So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus chat about laughs at funerals, a terrifying Australian kidnapping case, Evil or Genius, AI doppelgängers and more, only on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast.

FACT OR FICTION: Witches, poltergeists, UFOs and aliens!

9/2/2025
This week on Eavesdroppin’, Geordie & Michelle discuss witches, bitches, ghosts, aliens and UFOs... In a century long long ago, Geordie looks at the last witch burned alive in Ireland - the irrepressible Bridget Cleary. Young, smart and entrepreneurial, Bridget was a bit of a live wire in her small rural town. No harm, no foul, you'd think, except when she fell ill at the age of 26, her husband claimed she'd been overtaken by a fairy and burned her alive. Nasty. Listen now for the details! Geordie also examines the naughty Bell Witch from Tennessee, also known as Kate, who in the early 1800s, haunted, tormented and terrorised the John Bell family with tragic consequences. They did have slaves, so, you know. Listen now to hear the story! Michelle follows with two UFO stories, beginning with an Aussie sighting in Western Australia. In late 1991 at the Harold E Holt naval base in Exmouth, Annie Farinaccio had been partying at the base and stayed there too late to get home safely. Cadging a lift to Exmouth with two police officers, she made the 5km journey home with them, expecting an uneventful ride. Except the officers saw something weird in the sky - and it wasn't the first time! Listen now to hear what happened next! She follows with another UFO story - this time, in Varginha, Brazil, when three young girls spotted an oily alien with three lumps on its head in some weeds. Was it an alien? A stray dog? Or a homeless person? You decide! So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus chat about Terrence Stamp, Dirk Bogarde, Charlotte Rampline, telly recs and more, only on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast.

MUSES: Marianne Ihlen, Chloe Sevigny, Edie Sedgwick, Kiki de Parnasse and more!

8/12/2025
This week on Eavesdroppin’, Geordie & Michelle discuss muses... Despite having an anti-feminist spasm about the whole concept of muses, this week Michelle dives in to look at the life of Marianne Ihlen, a Norwegian woman who was the muse to three different men! When Marianne met a guy called Axel Jensen, it set her on a path to Hydra, which led her to meeting Leonard Cohen and having an almost decade-long relationship with him. The inspiration for many songs, Marianne and Leonard's story runs the gamut of emotions, culminating in an email that set the internet on fire... Geordie follows with a little history lesson on Greek muses before looking at the life of the coolest girl in the world, Chloe Sevigny. Authentic and independent, Geordie digs into what makes her a modern-day muse. She then looks at the tragic life of Edie Sedgwick, before ending with the life of art muse, Kiki de Parnasse - the woman behind the surrealist photographer Man Ray.

Handsome, high energy and full of wacky theories, Max was and in-demand speaker and panelist all over the world on subjects as diverse as UFOs, the paranormal and political conspiracy theories.

AI & FAKE GHOSTS: The rise and fall of Replika, plus The Philip Experiment and tulpas!

7/1/2025
This week on Eavesdroppin', Geordie & Michelle look at a sexy AI app gone rogue and an experiment that took a spooky turn ... Do you think you could fall in love with a chatbot? In 2017, an AI companion app called Replika was created and it was way more successful than anyone could have imagined. It started off as a way for its creator to deal with grief and ended up being a bit too sexy for the authorities to handle. People were falling in love. People were getting spicy selfies. And then an update wiped it all away, with people's 'Reps' effectively lobotomised overnight - with devastating results. Listen now to Michelle discussing the rise and fall of Replika. Geordie follows with a look at a 1970s experiment that posed the question: can you create a ghost through sheer belief? When Dr A.R. George Owen decided to gather his students together to see if a group of people could invent a ghost, he wasn't prepared for the results. They created a backstory for the made-up apparition, called him Philip Aylesford - they even went to England to the town they decided he had lived in and then... a few ouija boards and seances later, the ghost of Philip Aylesford appeared. What the huh? Listen now to find out more - and to discover what a tulpa is!

BAD HABITS: Tarrare the Grotesque, plus cat lickers, sponge eaters and candle nibblers

6/24/2025
This week on Eavesdroppin', Geordie & Michelle look at some really bad habits... Would you eat a live cat? Tarrare did. And if you don't know who Tarrare is, he was only the grossest man alive in France in the 1700s. With an insatiable appetite and a stench that lingered, Tarrare was an unpleasant anomaly whose legend lives on. More than that, he had stretchy mouth that could fit a dozen eggs in it, he ate live cats and maybe even nibbled dead people. Geordie takes a deep dive into this human house of horrors... Michelle follows with a look at some strange eating habits starting with Lisa the crazy cat lady. Not only does she love cats, but she also loves licking them - and eating their fur. Listen now to find out if Lisa gets furballs... Michelle also looks at three ladies in the UK who love to munch on sponges, and a pair of twins who respectively enjoy eating candles and old books. Listen to their stories and Michelle's hot takes on pica... So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus a voice note from Janika from Amsterdam, chit-chat about cardigans, The British Podcast Awards and more, only on Eavesdroppin’ podcast.

HOMETOWN MURDERS: The Angel of Belanglo, plus who killed Rachelle Childs?

6/17/2025
It's another rough ride on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast this week, as Geordie and Michelle look at two Australian hometown murders… When two dirt-bike riders found human bones in the Belanglo State Forest in Australia, 2010, police were stumped. Who was this woman? Had anyone reported this Jane Doe as missing? Five years later, an unsuspecting motorist found a body in a suitcase on the side of the road in South Australia and once again police were confounded by the victim’s identity. So - who were these victims? Was anyone looking for them? Were they connected? This week, Michelle delves into both cases and uncovers the grim details behind the murders of Karlie and Khandalyce Pearce. Geordie follows with a look at the unsolved case of murdered Australian woman, Rachelle Childs. When a burning body was found on a beach near Gerroa in New South Wales, Australia, in 2001, the remains were quickly identified as belonging to car-dealership worker Rachelle Childs. Police, friends and family were shocked and confused buy the grim discovery – who would want to kill Rachelle? As the subject of a new podcast series called Dear Rachelle, Geordie digs into the case and reveals the number one suspect who potentially has gotten away with murder. Listen to find out more! So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus chit-chat about hometowns, Ivan Milat and more, only on Eavesdroppin’ podcast.

BAD CULTS: The Red House Children's Home, plus the cult of Gloriavale

6/10/2025
It's a rough ride on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast this week, as Geordie and Michelle look at bad cults… If you were a child with scholastic issues or behavioural problems in the early 1980s in the UK, you might have been sent to a Red House alternative education facility. The brochures told of an idyllic boarding school where children who had suffered abuse or neglect at home could thrive in an environment where sailing and horse riding were interspersed with reading, writing and arithmetic. The reality was that the Red House schools were institutions where children were regularly beaten, humiliated, sexually abused and forced into slave labour. Listen now for Geordie's deep dive into Red House schools, the Danish founding organisation Tvind and a discussion about why it was a cult hiding in plain sight... Michelle follows with a look at a harrowing New Zealand cult called Gloriavale. Tucked away on the west coast of New Zealand's South Island is a religious group that was meant to be a spiritual utopia - the men worked, the women raised kids and everyone lived by the word of god and shared the spoils of communal labour. On paper, Gloriavale sounds like a dream - but it's a cult, where men are in control and women are trained to submit, serve and stay silent. Who started this cult? How is it off the international radar? And is the cult still going now? Listen to find out. So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus chit-chat about Steiner Schools, Geordie's celeb Young Ones moment, Michelle's celeb encounter with a top pop star at LAX, a guardian angel encounter from Eavesdropper Steph, plus a near miss love triangle with a Hollywood A-Lister from Eavesdropper Roxanne and more, only on Eavesdroppin’ podcast.

OUTTA SPACE: Did aliens really land on Ilkley Moor? Plus, what's the deal with Mars One?

6/3/2025
On Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast this week, Geordie and Michelle look at aliens, strange space debris and would-be martians… On the 1st of December, 1987, Philip Spencer (not his real name) went out into the fog on Ilkley Moor in Yorkshire, England, for an early-morning walk. Through the fog, he saw what he initially thought was a child with the long spindly limbs, oval eyes, a large head and strange proportions. On instinct, Philip snapped a picture of the strange child – and then things got weird. Listen now to discover why what happened next has made this story one of the UK’s most baffling alien-abduction encounters (hint: contains missing time, hypnosis and a very reluctant witness). Geordie follows with a look at the dud that was the Mars One would-be space mission. Back in 2012, a Dutch space entrepreneur launched an exciting new proposal – he planned to send 100 people on a one-way trip to Mars to live out the rest of their days on the Red Planet. What’s more, they’d all be on their very own reality TV show about the mission! Genius! Except that the whole idea turned out to be a turkey. Listen now to find out why! So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus chit-chat about a weird space orb found in Buga, Matthew Brown the UFO whistleblower, banned baby names and more, plus a snippet from friend of the show, Serena Bobowski - only on Eavesdroppin’ podcast.

But do they exist? And do you believe in guardian angels? Have you ever had a sign from your guardian angel? or been saved from disaster by a voice from above? Michelle looks at these questions and more, revealing the two times she's heard wisdom from her guardian angel, plus a look at stories from the internet of people who've averted disaster because of guidance from their GAs.
