This week starts off sensibly with a chat about vitamins…

......and somehow ends with samurai, school reports, enemas and Anne Diamond tattoos.

We dive head-first into the weird and wonderful world of health fads, from Victorian women sucking rusty nails for iron (yep, really) to 90s miracle drinks, vibrating belts and flushing your insides out with a hose.

Along the way, things go wildly off-road — as they always do.

In This Episode:

Why Victorians were encouraged to suck rusty nails Cod liver oil, vitamins and the supplement explosion Aqua Libra – the 90s drink that made you feel healthy just by holding it Green juices and influencer nonsense The truly horrifying world of colonic irrigation Duncan's behind-the-scenes camera tour of his own insides Tommy's indestructible liver and self-administered organ massage Cutting up kidneys in school biology class The worst (and funniest) sex education ever School reports and teachers who couldn't even get your name right GCSEs, hangovers and Young Farmers gone wild Cornflake diets, cabbage soup and grapefruit misery Ab rollers, vibrating belts and fitness scams Bullworkers, stuntmen and duelling survival tips Samurai philosophy, beheadings and how to deal with enemies And why Anne Diamond might need a tattoo that says "Wait at the Bridge"
