This week's episode is about the making of the film, Roar, a film with the tagline is: “No animals were harmed in the making of this movie. 70 members of the cast and crew were.” 

Recorded live at The Glee Club in Birmingham, it was a great fun time!

Because I'm an idiot, I forgot to mention that Roar was suggested as a topic by listeners Denzel Arevalo, Ryan Malloy, Will Hughes, Casey L Probert and Robin - cheers!

Our first show recorded on our UK tour is all about Agatha Christie. She's the best selling novelist of all time and the definitely the queen of the murder mystery genre... But in 1926, she created a real life mystery when she suddenly dissapeared from her home, resulting in one of the largest manhunts in history. Where did she go and what did she do?

In France in the 18th Century there was a man known as Tarrare… and boy could he eat. By the age of seventeen he could eat his own weight in beef. An insatiable hunger led him to become a travelling performer, eating everything from snakes to stones to golden forks. A very funny but sometimes gross story, probably don’t listen to this one whilst eating.
