Belle Gunness was a loving mother who was unlucky in love. And business ownership. And home ownership. And in being a mother. And in keeping her partners alive. And apparently lived on a farm full of dead bodies in sacks. Totally inappropriate that John would write an entire script explaining how she was a serial killer. Like there was barely any evidence. Listen this week as John purposefully defames a perfectly decent butcher to Aaron.

Sometimes your mortal enemy is a guy that cuts the line at the supermarket. Sometimes it's that kid in school who got the new Xbox when you had the old Playstation. And sometimes you're the smartest man in the world and your nemesis is some guy that forges coins. This week Aaron takes us through the story of Isaac Newton and his nemesis, William Chaloner.

There's just a few things you should always know the location of. Your children. Your passport. Your pets. And your arsenal of world destroying nuclear weapons. But geez, sometimes they just go missing. This week on Cheeky Tales John takes us through the story of a few times the yanks went looking under the couch cushions for the most destructive weapons in history.

Whenever you think of pirate, you probably think of a whole lot of stereotypes. Long, dirty hair. An eye patch. A big tri-point hat, maybe even with a skull and crossbones. Maybe even some really fetching frilly sleeves. A peg leg. A parrot on the shoulder. But I'll bet there is one thing you didn't picture - a woman pirate. This week Aaron will take us through the tale of 3 pioneering, buccaneering, pilfering women.

Some people love Coca-Cola, some love Pepsi. And then there is that one guy who's like, "um, actually Dr Pepper is the best soft drink." This story is for that guy, who in this case, is Sean. Join us this week as Sean takes Aaron and John through the tale of the little soda that could, from humble beginnings in Waco, Texas, to the big city dreams of Leichardt, in Queensland, Australia. It's got everything from court room drama to international intrigue (just what IS a pepper drink?). So listen up, crack open a can of Dr Pepper, and learn a little something.

Run, Kick, Tackle, Chip, Chase, Grubber, Try, Court Case? This week Sean gets us ready for the new NRL season by taking Aaron and John through the tale of Super League. How did the Australian Rugby League community get so fractured it split off into two rival leagues? Why is it always Newscorp? What does a random train have to do with it? All these questions and more will be answered if you give it a watch! This week with good audio!

We've talked about them so often we figured it was about time we introduced them! This week Aaron and John introduce their partners, Bree and Kirsty, to the podcast as Aaron weaves the tale of how Valentine's got it's name and why it's even about love. Oh, and just what the heck is Cupid?

Sorry about the slightly dodgy audio!

WW2 had a lot of stories of survival, but none are quite like this. A plane that refused to die, a crew that refused to give up, and a moment of compassion from a foreign fighter pilot. Join us this week as John takes Aaron and producer Sean through the tale of the Ye Olde Pub Incident.

It's hard to imagine the beer and whiskey loving USA giving it up, but that's exactly what they did in the early 1900's. Listen this week as Aaron takes John and Producer Sean through the sordid tale of dry mouths, rum running, organised crime, and good old fashioned hypocrisy.
