June 03, 2021 S3 Ep69: Loremen S3 Ep69 - The Midnight Library 2 - The Ghost of Harry Main
This is the Midnight Library 2: Electric Boogaloo AKA The Midnight Library Returns: Electric Boogalurns.
Miranda Merrick and Mr Darling make their way to merry olde England and cause a right old fuss. Miranda shares the tale of Harry Main, a distinctly land-based pirate with a side-line animal disguises. Oh, and if you ever dig a hole in Ipswich, Massachusetts – watch out for cats, mate.

May 27, 2021 S3 Ep68: Loremen S3 Ep68 - The Mystery of the Arthur's Seat Coffins
The Loreboys go rambling up Scotland's third most famous seat* and make a very spooky discovery: a Victorian mystery that remains unsolved. (Spoiler: we didn't solve it). Guest stars in this episode include: Scottish Columbo, a poisoned pig and Mrs. Doubtfire.

Warning: James does the full gamut of 'Scottish' accents, ranging from 'Elderly Nanny' to 'He Will Get Chinned If He Goes There Now.'

*after the Stone of Scone and Mel Gibson's bum in Braveheart.

May 13, 2021 S3 Ep67: Loremen S3 Ep67 - Ben Van der Velde - The Dybbuk
Ben Van der Velde (Worst Foot Forward Podcast) treats the Loremen to a tour of Jewish mysticism, the dreaded dybbuk and (of course) the world's original robot bouncer - the golem. Plus, we nearly make it through the whole episode without a circumcision joke. Watch out for guest appearances from 'Bugz in the Nut', a whole new superhero franchise, and (of course) Mr. Blobby. Oh, you thought we'd run out of things to say about Saturday night TV in the 90s? You thought wrong. Gotcha!

Content Warning: we touch on historic antisemitism and related conspiracy theories.

May 06, 2021 S3 Ep66: Loremen S3 Ep66 - Hand of Glory
If you've executed a criminal and are wondering what to do with their hands, why not get crafting and make yourself a Hand of Glory? This burglar's multi-tool is purported to do all sorts, though the evidence points (like a dead highwayman's cadaverous finger) towards them not really working at all.

This episode was originally a livestream, and features a reading from notorious former-guest Chris Cantrill. The good news is, he's not reading poetry. The bad news is, James is.

April 22, 2021 S3 Ep65: Loremen S3 Ep65 - The Isle of Thanet
Ah, the Isle of Thanet! A place of great antiquity. Some say its name comes from "Ynys Thanatos" - the Isle of the Dead - a folkloric curio which James totally neglects to mention, and instead spends most of the episode talking about rollercoasters. But the ups-and-downs of Thanet don't end there. We also have an over-hyped hero, a touchy ghost and someone called Erminburga. Plus at least one "fun fact" and minimum two murdered princes. (The standard Loremen ratio.)

April 15, 2021 S3 Ep64: Loremen S3 Ep64 - Robin Ince - Grim's Ditch
Robin Ince (R4's Infinite Monkey Cage & The Cosmic Shambles Network) takes the Loremen for a meander along Grim's Ditch. On the way, they encounter everything from 1970s horror films to 1970s folk horror films. Plus some very lazy ghosts, a prophetic river and a film franchise that will doubtless rival the great trilogies (Back To The Future, The Godfather and Big Momma's).

April 08, 2021 S3 Ep63: Loremen S3 Ep63 - April Fools' LIVE
Those mischievous Loremen celebrated April Fools' Day the only way they know how: a live stream! Listen in for tales of impossible frogs, the dangers of 'lad banter' and, of course, dead body hijinks. Think of this episode as a sort of Bank Holiday Weekend at Bernie's.

*MOOIE WARNING KLAXON:* Mooie warning.
