This week Rob and Tom have a look into the mad world of Sir Jimmy Savile OBE. This loved household celebrity adored by millions was in reality a horrific monster hiding in plain sight. A friend to political leaders and Royal Family members, he abused thousands of children over many decades, some live on TV. He indulged in necrophilia and removed fake eyes from dead bodies then had them mounted on rings. The police were well aware but were told to stand down.

We have history to thank for many things, but also for a lot of misinformation that lasted in some cases for centauries! There is a long list of diseases that we woefully misunderstood up until quite recently. Today we chat through some of histories big hitters, like the black death, HIV/ AIDS, and syphilis. How the lack of knowledge & science and even in one more recent case a clerical error, helped spread this misinformation far and wide!

For many years people have reported seeing large Panthers and Leopards roaming around the countryside and urban areas of the UK. Repots in tabloid newspapers sensationally claim that the savage beasts roam free. Amongst livestock kills, photo and video footage, paw prints and sightings from literally a few meters away, is there any physical evidence of their presence? It seems there is.

EPISODE THREE HUNDRED!! Of course, for such a milestone episode, we had to give the people what they want, and we have gone full on serial killer murder porn. Today we talk about Peter Kürten, a German man who was born in the late 1800s who earned himself the name ‘The Vampire of Düsseldorf' who savagely murdered 10 men, women, and children, and attempted to murder a further 31! A true product of his upbringing this guy is up there with the Chikatilos & Bundys of the world! Get ready for some great sound effects!

On November 24th 1971, a man named by the press as DB Cooper hijacked a Boeing 727-100 airliner flying from Portland to Seattle. He managed to extort a ransom of $200,000, equivalent to $1,401,066.67 in 2022, and vanished into thin air…literally…he's never been found.

Today we discuss the very different lives of two brothers, one a hero and one a monster. The first who was abducted and abused for a huge portion of his formative young life, who escapes, saves another young boy in the process and is considered a hero. The other remains in his family's safe care, raised by those who love him becomes a serial killer brutally murdering 4 women and is considered a monster. A truly interesting couple of cases in the question of Nature vs Nurture, and how their experiences did not decide the outcome of these two men's lives.

On August 21st, 1955 after seeing a UFO land outside in the nearby woods, 12 people at a farmhouse in the town of Kelly had a close encounter with numerous strange glowing entities.

This is regarded as one of the most significant and well-documented cases in the history of UFO incidents.

Civilisation is fragile, extremely fragile. Throughout history numerous powerful civilisations have risen and fallen, unfortunately we are no different. We marvel at our technological prowess, at our seemingly bullet proof modern world but nothing last for ever. At some point it will end and unless we take steps to safeguard or species, humans will eventually die out. This week we look at colonising space, interstellar travel, seed banks, DNA arks, and storing back ups of humanity on other planets for safe keeping.

Susannah Cahalan a NY based journalist was a normal 24-year-old woman just living her best life, when she started to exhibit some strange symptoms. She described life as feeling strange, brighter, louder, and more painful! Her health declined rapidly into paranoia, strange behavioural outbursts, seizures, and ultimately a catatonic state. Despite all the doctor's best efforts, they could not find a cause for her condition, until one bright doctor asked her to draw a clock!

This week we discuss the formation of the moon, its larger size in comparison to the earth, and what makes it so special. The earth moon system is a precisely balanced celestial pair, tuned perfectly for the existence of life.

After a generation of Japanese rule, intimidation and political schemes, in 1945 when the Japanese empire collapsed, the peninsula of Korea was split in two and taken over by the Soviet Union to the north, and the USA to the south.

Rob is back and we're going down a virus rabbit hole. Smallpox is one of only two viruses that have been completely eradicated from earth thanks to the invention of the vaccine. The smallpox vaccine was the first of its type, and took over from the much less effective inoculation procedure of variolation which included the use of powdered scabs to be administered by the way of the nose!

Experienced by people for thousands if not hundreds of thousands of years, Poltergeists plague or are attracted to specific individuals usually females, mostly young girls going through puberty. They move objects, make creepy noises and on occasions talk. But sometimes they manifest themselves in other ways.

Today we discussed Galaxies. The immense size of these structures is breath taking. Containing hundreds of billions, if not trillions of stars and bound together with dark matter, galaxies hang in space on galactic filaments which make up the structures of the universe.

The Radium girls worked as dial painters from the 1920's to the 1940's.

Many lost their lives, others went up against the companies in an effort to have the paint banned!

Genghis Khan was the most successful conqueror to have ever graced the planet! In just a few short decades, Khan was able to conquer an empire the size of the African continent.
