    516 - Spring-Heeled Jack
    Sep 10 2025

    In 19th Century London, a bizarre figure terrorised the streets, lashing out with metal claws and blowing fire in people's faces before leaping over tall fences. Described variously as a bull, a bear, a ghost or even a devil-like creature, the phantom's rampage went for more than six decades! But who was he???


    Recorded live at The Frog and Bucket in Manchester.


    This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 07:10 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).

    515 - The Tenerife Airport Disaster
    Sep 3 2025

    “Tenerife is an example of the 'Swiss Cheese' Model: dozens of individual events, each of them incredibly unlikely in their own right, aligning against all odds to create the final outcome.”


    This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 07:09 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).
