Facts The Way I Like It! is back with yet more lesser-known facts and stories from history... This week Gill and Pete cover such subjects as the perils awaiting keen geologists who insist on popping rocks or indeed objects that resemble rocks into their mouths. They also discuss a manuscript which is a complete mystery, the first ever electric taxis in New York and London and Pete delves into who dropped the ball the night Abraham Lincoln was shot.

Finally, Gill brings a new angle to the phrase "No news is Good News"...
