A Scottish Podcast About Scotland!This week we look back at the incredible and inspiring and bonkers story of Susan Boyle; the local singer who came on to the Britain's Got Talent stage in 2009 looking "old", "frumpy", "weird" and many other unflattering adjectives, only to blow the judges, the audience and the world away. After her appearance she became the biggest ever viral sensation to hit social media. Her rise to fame was devastatingly fast, having an impact on her mental health and well being, but ultimately changing her life forever, while giving her the influence to big time Obama! We also discuss how she got some of her terrible nicknames. If you hear some atmospheric rumblings in this episode it's because Chris was recording in a storm. It only adds to the drama of Su Bo's incredible life and career.  SláinteCONTACT:Instagram: thistledopodTwitter: @thistledopodFacebook: www.facebook.com/thistledopodEmail: thistledonicelypod@gmail.comwebsite: https://www.thistledonicelypod.com/Google Voicemail: 4844 TDN POD (484 483-6763)SOURCES: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2013/dec/08/susan-boyle-autismSusan Boyle: An Unlikely Superstar (2011) dir.

A Scottish Podcast About Scotland!First off, the good news is: Jonny's back! All three of us are here to take you through this marathon topic. This week we are diving in to the amazing and exciting world of superheroes and comic books.  Mark Millar was born in Glasgow and has grown up to be one of the most influential comic book writers in the world. His work on The Avengers was the blueprint of the MCU, he is the creator of Kick-Ass and Kingsman: The Secret Service, and it was his idea that led to one of the most critically acclaimed comic book movies of all time: Logan. Comics and superhero's are right in Rory's sweet spot, so it's no wonder that this has ended up our first ever 3 parter....So pull you underwear on over your trousers, wrap yourself in a Saltire cape and come fly off on and adventure with the Thistle Do Nicely Men! SláinteCONTACT:Instagram: thistledopodTwitter: @thistledopodFacebook: www.facebook.com/thistledopodEmail: thistledonicelypod@gmail.comwebsite: https://www.thistledonicelypod.com/Google Voicemail: 4844 TDN POD (484 483-6763)SOURCES:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jNTGPBR75Y https://www.1stock1.com/1stock1_590.htmhttps://comicbook.com/tv-shows/news/netflix-american-jesus-series-update-filming-mark-millar-millarworld/https://www.whats-on-netflix.com/coming-soon/every-millarworld-project-coming-soon-to-netflix/https://www.mrmarkmillar.com/abouthttps://deadline.com/2021/04/joe-cornish-write-direct-starlight-mark-millar-simon-kinberg-20th-century-studios-1234732629/http://the-night-cruiser.blogspot.com/2018/07/comic-review-2000ad-big-dave.htmlhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Omv6tIFibIhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Millarhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimateshttps://www.scotsman.com/arts-and-culture/mark-millars-graphic-novels-really-are-graphic-coatbridge-boy-behind-wanted-and-new-teen-film-kick-ass-suprisingly-mild-mannered-2443083https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/ComicBook/TheAuthorityhttps://www.denofgeek.com/books/the-den-of-geek-interview-mark-millar/https://www.cbr.com/millar-resurrects-chosen-as-american-jesus/

A Scottish Podcast About Scotland!This week it's time for a listen with Chris 'n Rory! Jonny has the week off,  so Chris has taken this as an opportunity to  discuss America's favourite pastime and how it was basically invented by the Scot's.

A Scottish Podcast About Scotland!We are finally talking about the hugely popular historical sci fi history tv show Outlander. Season 6 just premiered on Starz in the US and so we decided to see what all the fuss was about. Turns out it's mainly about sexy people in kilts having lots and lots of sexy sex, with some pretty extreme violence dropped in every so often. We are joined by long time podcast and Outlander fans Amanda and Tim who tell us why they love the show and what it means to be an Out-man-der. We discuss the origins of the show and the books, as well as dipping into the sporran for some of the reader's thoughts on Outlander and Sam Heughan's bum. So unlace your corset, pour yourself a glass of Sassenach Whisky and make sure your mum is not around to make things weird, as we talk about Outlander. SláinteCONTACT:Instagram: thistledopodTwitter: @thistledopodFacebook: www.facebook.com/thistledopodEmail: thistledonicelypod@gmail.comwebsite: https://www.thistledonicelypod.com/Google Voicemail: 4844 TDN POD (484 483-6763)SOURCES: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outlander_(TV_series)#Receptionhttps://www.mentalfloss.com/article/78374/15-surprising-facts-about-outlanderhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outlander_(novel)https://www.glamour.com/story/the-outlander-prequel-everything-we-know-about-the-upcoming-starz-serieshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diana_Gabaldon#Early_life_and_educationhttp://www.dianagabaldon.com/books/outlander-series/short-fiction/virgins/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Heughanhttps://www.heraldscotland.com/news/13210521.leaked-sony-emails-show-tv-chiefs-discussing-political-importance-outlander-indyref/

A Scottish Podcast About Scotland!This week we delve into the mystery surrounding the disappearance of James Ducat, Thomas Marshall, and William MacArthur in December 1900 from a lighthouse off the North East coast of Scotland. The three men vanished from the isle of Eilean Mòr with little no evidence of what happened to them. We breakdown the facts from the fiction and get into the theories of what really happened.

A Scottish Podcast About Scotland!This week we breakdown the most important news stories to have hit Scotland recently. Arguably one of the most important and unfortunately useless things to happen in Scotland this year is the gathering of world leaders to discuss climate changes at the COP26 in Glasgow. We discuss Joe Biden and Boris Johnson falling asleep during talks, activists fighting with projectionists, Nicola Sturgeon becoming a selfie fiend and Alexandia Orcazio-Cortez's heroic and epic struggle to hunt down the ever elusive can of Irn Bru. We also talk wee drunk men, the problems with Scottish accents in a professional setting, the joys of Scottish words and then Chris gives us all a "sexy" story. Also, this episodes marks the emergence of Malcolm the Climate Change Denying Manatee!The climate is buggered and our leaders have failed to do anything about it, so  why not let the Thistle Do Nicely lads talk nonsense in your ear holes before the apocalypse comes. SláinteCONTACT:Instagram: thistledopodTwitter: @thistledopodFacebook: www.facebook.com/thistledopodEmail: thistledonicelypod@gmail.comwebsite & sources: https://www.thistledonicelypod.com/SOURCES:https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/drunk-scots-man-flew-rage-25423586https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/entertainment/scots-actor-richard-madden-three-25429206https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/scotland-now/ten-beautiful-scottish-words-meaning-22558908https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/scottish-mp-resorts-sign-language-13436854https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/woman-who-breastfeeds-boyfriend-before-25271970https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/ufo-spotted-above-glasgow-couple-25386352https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/cop26-mascot-crowned-king-rats-25311039

A Scottish Podcast About Scotland!This week we finish off our discussion on King James the VI of Scotland AKA King James I of Great Britain. We delve more into his involvement in the publishing of the King James Bible and we look at the more salacious side of his life and some of the reasons he may not have been that interested in Queen Anne. We also take a wee moment to discuss his representation in modern pop culture (spoiler alert, it's hardly anything).

A Scottish Podcast About Scotland!This week it's a Chris researched show.....wait, where are you going? No, no, come back! This one is really good, I swear. This one is all about King James, the world renowned basketball player and the first monarch to unite Britain. King James the VI of Scotland, son of Mary Queen of Scots (MQoS) and real bastard to witches and Catholics, made the trip Down South later in life and rebranded himself King James I of Great Britain only to almost be blown up by the pesky domestic terrorist Guy Fawkes. Chris takes us on the majestic journey of one of Scotland's most interesting monarchs; telling us all about the trials and tribulations of the "author of the Bible" who may or may not have been raised by manatees.
