- Loremen S7Ep41 - Ghosts of Broadway, The Cotswolds
Not THAT Broadway! Join us in the idyllic Cotswold town of Broadway, with its honey coloured stone, dappled sunshine and a truckload of ghosts!
This episode boasts everything from a murderous pack of hounds to a pub haunted by (potentially) TV's Pat Sharp. If you find yourself wondering why we start talking about Big Brother Series 4's Jon Tickle, don't panic. The answer, along with a lot more nonsense, can be found in this week's bonus episode, available to our kind supporters on patreon.com/loremenpod.
And if you don't know who Jon Tickle or Pat Sharp are, congratulations! You probably also don't need a wee every 50ish minutes and aren't getting targeted ads for "digital lens glasses". Well done for being young / not British.

38 min - Loremen S7Ep40 - Gloucestershire Poltergeists
Get your bowl of sweeties ready, because James is knocking on your door with a Halloween grab-bag!
He gets distracted by a peculiar bit of grave statuary while trying to research Gloucestershire polterguys, but the Beresford body-bags of Fenny Bentley only add to the cavalcade of spooky nonsense. We've got ghosts, spectres and a proper goblin an' all!
Happy Halloween!

41 min - Loremen S7Ep39 - The Haunted Ruins of Woodchester Mansion
In the depths of Gloucestershire there lived a man, nay, a visionary! This man dared to dream that his egg-intolerant wife could enjoy a sweet dollop of custard on her pudding and he made that dream a reality. That man is not the main subject of this episode. But let's hear it for experimental chemist Alfred Bird.
Just like Mrs. Bird was haunted (ironically) by eggs, the unfinished Woodchester Mansion is positively riddled with ghosts. At least, according to its own website and some ghost hunting groups...

37 min - Loremen S7Ep38 - The Legends of Silbury Hill
Remember that big hill from the West Kennet Long Barrow episode just a couple of weeks ago? Well it's back. This time Silbury Hill brings some golden treats, a posset of seethed milk* and a 4500 year old flying ant.
Plus, the loreboys finally get a GOOD idea for a podcast.
* We'll explain later.

34 min - Loremen S7Ep37 - The Everingham Ghost Alignment
Yorkshire's answer to the Bermuda triangle is more of a straight line between Everingham and Pocklington. As ever, James and Alasdair tackle the burning questions. What happens when a police officer sees something peculiar on the road? (They try to arrest a ghost, of course!) What on earth is going on with Fahrenheit? And what are you doing with all that pig blood?
Seriously.

36 min - Loremen S7Ep36 - Ghosts of West Kennet Long Barrow
YouTube Version (with James' pics)
James leads us down to Wiltshire to see the megalithic marvel that is West Kennet Long Barrow. This Neolithic burial mound is the source of much folklore and at least one awkward social encounter for James. There's ghosts, grabbing hands and a lovely reminder of a funny video off of the internet.

43 min - Loremen S7Ep35 - Essex and Wirral Tales with Scarred For Life
Smugglers! Murderers! Funereal fakers!
The loreboys present tales of nautical naughtiness and photogenic phantoms from the hometowns of Andy and Dave, hosts of the Scarred For Life podcast. Plus, one or two mentions of the things that scared/scarred us all as children.

1 hr 6 min - Loremen S7Ep34 - Arthur: A New Life with Amy Jeffs
Author Amy Jeffs (Arthur: A New Life) joins us with the tale of King Arthur's most important quest: learning what (medieval) women want. As with a lot of Arthurian rambles, there's meandering aplenty. But thanks to the Loreboys, this retelling has more Super Mario references than you'd expect.

Note: Amy would like listeners to know that she intended to cite Fairy Encounters in Medieval England by Jeremy Harte, but she said "Medieval Encounters in Fairy England" because the fairy queen swapped the words around before they made it out of her mouth.

53 min - Loremen S7Ep33 - Little Bakery Shop of Horrors
Ciabatta beware! The Loreboys investigate a devilish crime in London's notorious bakery district. This is the St Luke's Mystery from 1881: the vanishing of a German baker whose whereabouts technically remain a mystery to this day.
Plus, Alasdair introduces James to the original consulting detective. It's Wendel Scherer, Germany's answer to, "what if Sherlock Holmes were German and not a very good detective?"

50 min - Loremen S7Ep32 - The Poole Pirate
It is time to screw on your sea legs, because the Loreboys are heading for the high seas! Specifically the ones immediately around Poole. (In Dorset? Of course we be endorsin' it, ye lubber!) James tells the life story of the Poole pirate Harry Paye, who learned that crime can actually be quite profitable.
