Gene and cohost Tim Swartz present a double-header featuring, first, Graham Phillips has been one of Britain’s bestselling non-fiction authors for over thirty years. His first books were co-authored with Martin Keatman. From the start the authors adopted a unique and adventurous approach to their research. In the 1990s Graham and Martin searched for the truth behind the timeless legends of King Arthur and Robin Hood. He has never been afraid of controversy. In 1995 he made headlines around the world, and created a storm in the Vatican that even involved the Pope himself, when he discovered a lost artifact that may have been the original Holy Grail. His first solo book, The Search for the Grail, told the fascinating story of this modern-day Grail quest. Graham’s latest book is Strange Fate — An Extraordinary True Story of Paranormal Discovery, along with Jodi Russell. Our second guest is Brian Young, an historian, cigar connoisseur, writer and researcher, with an interest in music, boxing and wrestling history, Victorian crime, with a focus on The Whitechapel Murders (Jack the Ripper), and has had a life long interest in history as well as the weird, and the wild. He is also the host on the Transatlantic History Ramblings podcast along with Lauren Davies. His book is “The Wrestlers’ Wrestlers: The Masters of the Craft of Professional Wrestling.” On this episode, Brian will use exercise his skeptical chops to comment on Graham's comments and provide a wide-ranging pop culture perspective.
