  • Hide and Seek but for Colonialists - The Lost Roanoke Colony

    Imagine you duck out on a camping trip to go grab something from the car, and when you come back everyone is gone.

Aaron takes John and Producer Sean through the mysterious tale.

  • Guaranteed Weight Loss Scheme You Can Trust - The History of the Guillotine

    Sometimes I have to work really hard to write the titles - not this time. John takes Aaron and Producer Sean through the grisly history of the Guillotine. You certainly don't want to be from the French high society this week.

  • In what world does this story have a kidnapping?!? - The History of ALDI

    Everyone loves a bargain, and Aldi is about as bargain as it comes. From pantry staples to robot vacuums and snow gear, ALDI has it all. It even has a pretty interesting back story, believe it or not. This week John takes us through the history of the world's most confusing chain of Supermarkets.

  • Yet More Reasons Aaron Doesn't Like Camping - The Donner Party

    Sometimes long road trips are fun. Sometimes you end up eating your friends. This week it's the latter, as Aaron takes John and Producer Sean through the thoroughly icky tale of the journey of The Donner Party.

  • We Hit Our Two Favourite Topics - WWII And Boat Medley

    Geez it's been a while since we talked about WWII (it hasn't) and Boats (it also hasn't). So this week Aaron thought it would be a great opportunity to break out both in a medley episode. Too bad Sean wasn't here to bring up yachts the whole time. John will just have to make wild claims about cats to make up for it.

  • An Accident So Big It Got Motorsport Banned - The 1955 Le Mans Disaster

    We're baaaaaaaack. And John's got a story of a motor race that went horribly, horribly wrong. It's one of the world's most famous races, the 24 Hours of Le Mans. In 1955 though, it was known for all the wrong reasons, and caused the banning of motorsports in some countries to this day. Listen as John takes Aaron through the tale of that tragic day.

  • Cheeky Chats - For When You're Missing a Boi and a Script

    This week it's a no scripter! John is away and so Aaron and Sean couldn't bear the thought of telling a tale. Aaron and Sean chat for a solid hour on topics they see fit, like 'How do you transition to a new career?' and 'Why Film Photography is Back!' and 'Drag Racing - Don't You Dare Say It's Bogan Ya DOG!'. 

    This will be a once off - we'll be back to regularly scheduled tales next week.
