Gandhi and The Industrial Revolution

8/8/2019
This week sees peaceful, circus strongman-faced Mahatma Gandhi up against the whirring and whistling, soot and smog, and all round alliteration of The Industrial Revolution. Gandhi. Salt-marcher, peaceful protester and Churchill-baiter. But underneath that simple robe beat the heart of a London-chiselled lawyer who may, once, have served food to Adolf Hitler. Then it's the Industrial Revolution that'll tar your inner ears. Did Dickens really ply guttersnipes with alcohol for their stories? Would you even say Dickens wrote during the Industrial Revolution?

Hemingway And The Occult

Ernest Hemingway. The man. They myth. The bearded, sadistic bullfighter. Proof that it's not only the nerds that write the books. For Whom The Bell Tolls, Old Man and the Sea and The Importance of Being Ernest Hemingway fired from his pen like beer from a blunderbuss. Then it's the Occult! Ooga Booga! Pentagrams! Ghosts! Witches! Ouiji Boards! The fact that The Rolling Stones are still gigging! Is ANY of this stuff to be believed. Think about it now. No-one reads these bits though YOU are.

Stonehenge and Grave Robbers

6/6/2019
Stonehenge. It's the biggest henge we've seen. Know you of any better henge? No. Didn't think so. Stonehenge is the BEST henge. Whether you're Indiana Jones or Rocky Cliffington McStonelover, we reckon you'll struggle to chisel this fact from the fiction. Then, as if that ancient mystery isn't enough, how about a little dabble with grave robbing? Often done in duos - who's the first one to bring the subject up - bit of a risk isn't it? Ancient Egypt, Burke and Hare and the resurrection men. There's a fact in there, but it'll take some digging! Come and join us on this weekly comedy (clean) gameshow podcast. You'll have a lovely old time.
