Podcasts about Geordie

Part 9, the final one with Geordie Lillis from Creators of Awesome, and it's the guest questions round. Four days deep into podcasting and Geordie's cooked, but he still delivers. He doesn't want anyone's autograph because he walks away from every shoot with a video of that person instead, which he reckons is worth more. No idols either, just running his own race, and the novelty of rubbing shoulders with Chris Hemsworth and Max Verstappen wears off quicker than you'd think. His biggest fuck-up is a good one. Eighteen hour shoot on the back of fourteen straight days, back at the accommodation copying two terabytes off twelve cards, so cooked he hit Control X instead of Control C and wiped half a card of factory footage they only had one day of access to. Call it thirty to a hundred grand, gone in a silent keystroke. Plus the Tag Heuer after-party at the Melbourne Grand Prix in a $30 million house that looks completely normal from the street until the entire front yard lifts up on hydraulics and you drive down a spiral ramp into a Tony Stark supercar lair with Peking Duk playing. And the reason the Prince of Johor has a collection of white albino alligators, which is that you can't legally export alligators from the States, but apparently an albino one doesn't count as an alligator.

Part 8 with Geordie Lillis from Creators of Awesome, and it's all travel yarns. Geordie's held a camera in more countries than most people visit in a lifetime. Sitting on top of Table Mountain in Cape Town, which he points out is a fair way from Dalby. Nights out in Piss Alley in Shinjuku, where three streets are packed with about 150 tiny family-run bars that fit three patrons each and some won't even let tourists in. Then Malaysia. Filming a vehicle announcement with the princes of Johor, wrapped in the afternoon, and found a 24 hour go-kart track. There's a bar at the track and they do not care how full you are. Started pissing down rain, the whole place was theirs, staff jumped in karts and started chucking buckets of water on the track so the boys could do drifties at midnight. And the big one. First trip out of Australia at 23, on a Contiki with 14 Aussie blokes in the Austrian ski town of Hopfgarten. Dead bar, a house drink called a fruit salad, a Stratocaster on the stage, and the moment Geordie started playing Highway to Hell a whole bus of Australians walked through the door. Ends with a stolen porcelain pineapple, a taxi, and waking up cuddling it covered in dots. Need a video done? Find Creators of Awesome. ⚠️ Explicit content.#propertrueyarn

This week on Eavesdroppin' comedy podcast, Geordie & Michelle look at three missing persons cold cases that refused to stay buried...When 25-year-old Melanie Hall disappeared after a night out in Bath in 1996, police believed answers would come quickly, but nearly 30 years later, her murder remains unsolved. In Germany in 1994, the body of an unidentified man was found floating in the North Sea, weighed down with cast-iron cobblers' shoe lasts, but decades later, it remains a mystery, despite an unexpected connection to Australia. And in London, an unhoused man discovered frozen to death in a Chelsea doorway remained unidentified for more than 30 years before a simple clue finally identified him... Connecting all three cases is the work of Locate International, the volunteer-led charity that revisits long-forgotten missing person and unidentified body cases using genealogy, DNA, archival research and fresh investigative thinking. So, why did it take three decades to identify The Chelsea Man as Vincent Akpiroroh? Could advances in forensic science finally solve the mystery of the North Sea Man? And will Melanie Hall's killer ever be brought to justice? So grab a brown lemonade and settle in as the duo chat school photos, placentas and more on Eavesdroppin'.

Part 7 with Geordie Lillis from Creators of Awesome, and it takes a heavy turn. Geordie starts light, growing up on a bit of land outside Dalby with his old man teaching at the local state school, and reckons Progress Street in Kwinalei has seen the least progress of any street in the country. The pub's shut down too, so it's Kaimkillenbun for a feed these days.Then he tells the yarn about his high school principal, Stacey Train, who years later was one of the three people involved in the Wieambilla shootings. Geordie's memory of her is a good one. The day a supply teacher marched him and his mates off the school oval for climbing trees at lunch, dumped them in Stacey's office, and Stacey just looked at them and said “you probably shouldn't have been in the tree, so walk out of here and look sad.” Geordie talks about the subtle signs he can see looking back, the family relationships that were already breaking down, and what it's like watching someone you knew as a decent human end up somewhere unthinkable. His take is that you've got to watch who you surround yourself with, because you never know where you end up. Need a video done? Find Creators of Awesome. ⚠️ Explicit content. This episode discusses a fatal shooting.

Then Christie's driving on the highway west of Dalby filming a truck video. Swerves to save a turtle. Reckons she saved it. The following semi-trailer disagrees. Geordie's got the GoPro strapped to the truck wheel and gets the close-up. Just a pink mist. Then Broome to Darwin. Beautiful bridge, gorgeous shot, “let's do one more,” drone straight into the tallest tree in the outback. Then the backup drone with a stick sticky-taped to it also gets stuck in the same tree. Four and a half hours from anywhere, sun going down, throwing rocks. Finds an arborist on Facebook at 10.30pm who drives four and a half hours out at 6am and climbs the tree in two minutes flat. Paid him in fishing rods. Need a video done? Find Creators of Awesome. ⚠️ Explicit content.

This week Jess and I are catching up on iconic queens and moments from across the globe, queens that have made an impression on us, and those who have become memes in our minds. We get into the last few episodes of Drag Race UK Season 5, discussing the makeover challenge, the roast, and the finale music video. We talk about the tragic elimination of Kate Butch, the lipsync assassin of the season DeDeLicious, and the rise of Michael Marouli as a solid contender for the crown next to Ginger Johnson. We talk about some crazy names for the makeover partners, what family resemblance even means anymore on Drag Race and how inconsistent the judgement is on a season to season basis. We get into the challenges, fashions, storylines, and drama between Vicki Vivacious and DeDeLicious!Twitch

This week on Eavesdroppin' comedy podcast, Geordie & Michelle head to Nepal to unpack one of the most shocking and controversial royal stories of modern times...On 1 June 2001, a routine Friday night family dinner at the Narayanhiti Royal Palace ended in unimaginable tragedy when King Birendra, Queen Aishwarya and seven other members of the Nepalese royal family were mercilessly gunned down - but by whom? The official investigation concluded that King BIrendra's son, the Crown Prince Dipendra, carried out the massacre before dying from his own injuries — but for many, that explanation raised as many questions as it answered, leading to the conspiracy theories that refuse to go away. Diving in, Geordie looks at the claims of palace intrigue and political cover-ups and an eerie legend dating back to 1769 that foretold the downfall of Nepal's Shah dynasty after ten generations. Is history colliding with myth, or has the truth been hiding in plain sight all along? So grab a brown lemonade and settle in as the duo chat murder dreams, backpacker travels and more on Eavesdroppin'.

In Part 4 of Proper True Yarn with Geordie Lillis, he shares the unbelievable story of going from having just $8 in his bank account to creating one of Australia's most viral videos during COVID. Geordie opens up about recovering from life-changing injuries, travelling to Europe just before the world shut down, returning home as COVID hit, and finding himself completely broke. Then came the now-famous wheelie bin video that exploded across social media, reaching millions of people around the world and launching his career as a full-time content creator. From working with agricultural machinery companies and producing over a video a day to building one of Australia's most recognised online brands, Geordie explains the power of consistency, taking risks, and creating opportunities when life throws everything at you. This episode is packed with hilarious yarns, behind-the-scenes stories, practical advice for creators, and plenty of laughs. If you enjoy Australian podcasts, rural Australia, entrepreneurship, viral content, farming stories, and proper true yarns, this episode is one you won't want to miss.#propertrueyarn

Part 3 with Geordie Lillis from Creators of Awesome, and this one goes off. Geordie kicks off with a proper true yarn. At 14, riding his motorbike on the family farm, he got struck by lightning. The bolt hit the power line above him and arced through the ground into his bike. Rubber wheels, rubber gloves, rubber boots. That's the only reason he's here to tell it. Mum watched him vanish in a white flash. He's got the GoPro footage too. The lightning gave him a heart arrhythmia that stuck around until he broke his neck at 21 and the shock reset his heart. Turns out breaking your neck's not all bad news. Geordie walks through the recovery. 21 years old, working on movies at Village Roadshow, one bad skim board fall on the beach, hairline fracture through C1, and months lying in bed counting flies. Then a university lecturer offered him a job teaching filmmaking around Queensland to little indigenous communities. The Pomperaw yarn about handing shoelaces to barefoot kids who turned them into fishing nets by lunch is a ripper. Plus a full breakdown of how a film set actually works. Cinematographer, focus puller, second AC, video utility. And Geordie's specific job on Thor: Ragnarok running hundreds of metres of cable so Chris Hemsworth could see the Hulk in his eyeline.

In Part 2 of Knuckles' conversation with Geordie Lillis, the journey takes an unexpected turn. After turning a passion for filming into work on blockbuster productions like Thor: Ragnarok, Pacific Rim: Uprising and Love and Monsters, Geordie seemed to be living the dream. But one accident at the beach changed everything. Geordie opens up about the serious neck injury that nearly cost him his life, the frightening symptoms that followed, months of uncertainty, and how being forced away from Hollywood ultimately helped him rediscover what truly mattered. This is a powerful conversation about resilience, perspective, rural work ethic, and why listening to your body could save your life.#propertrueyarn

This week on Eavesdroppin' podcast, hosts Geordie & Michelle dive into one of the internet's most chaotic legal rabbit holes - the case involving Laura Owens and former Bachelor lead Clayton Echard.When Clayton Echard from Season 26 of America's reality show The Bachelor, invited Laura Owens over to his house for a hook up, he never expected his life to be upended for more than three years. What started as a headline-grabbing paternity dispute spiralled into a years-long online obsession with amateur sleuths, YouTubers, legal commentators and court-watchers trying to piece together what actually happened in the Owens-Echard case and as the proceedings unfolded, more questions than answers emerged, turning this case into a viral obsession. .Listen now to hear a story packed with paternity claims, court hearings, conflicting timelines, fake pregnancies and doctored sonograms, and worst of all - Clayton wasn't the only one...

This week, Geordie & Michelle. veer into the eerie world of liminal spaces, alternate realities and the unsettling idea that there might be places that exist just beyond our own...Have you heard of the Elevator Game? What began as a South Korean urban legend evolved into an internet paranormal ritual, spreading through horror forums and social media. The premise is simple but unsettling: enter an elevator in a building with at least ten floors, follow a precise sequence of button presses and you may find yourself transported to another dimension. That legend leads to one of the internet's most enduring mysteries: the case of Elisa Lam. What was she doing in that hotel elevator? Could her strange behavior have anything to do with the Elevator Game—or is that simply a modern myth layered onto a tragic real-life event? Geordie also explores the unsettling mythology of Backrooms, the psychology of liminal spaces and why these strange in-between places continue to haunt our imaginations.

This week on Eavesdroppin' Comedy Podcast, Geordie and Michelle head to Georgia, USA, for a look at yet another McCracken Poston Jr case: Byron 'Low Tax' Looper...When political hopeful Byron Looper changed his middle name to "Low Tax" as a campaign stunt, people thought he was an ambitious yet harmless candidate. Then in 1998, Byron "Low Tax" Looper decided to run for state senate against incumbent Tommy Burks, who was expected to win by a landslide. However, just days before the election, Tommy Burks was found shot dead in his pickup truck and almost immediately, suspicion fell on Byron, who stood to benefit politically from Tommy's' sudden death.

This week on Eavesdroppin' Comedy Podcast, Geordie and Michelle head to Idaho, USA, to untangle the disturbing case of Lori Vallow and Chad Daybell...When Lori Vallow's two children, JJ and Tylee, vanished without explanation, it exposed a shocking case with an outcome no one expected. This week, Geordie digs into Lori and Chad Daybell's obsession with end-times prophecy, people as “light or dark” spirits and extreme religious beliefs — and how those delusions became tied to multiple suspicious deaths and a heartbreaking murder investigation.

This week on Eavesdroppin', Geordie and Michelle dive into the weird and wonderful world of epigenetics, inherited trauma, reincarnation and the possibility that your DNA might be carrying more than just your eye colour...Can fear really be passed down through generations? Why did a group of mice develop a terror of cherries after their parents were traumatised in a lab experiment? And could the experiences of Holocaust survivors leave biological marks on their descendants? Recent scientific studies suggest that trauma can literally rewire DNA alongside the hopeful idea that healing might be inherited, too.Michelle then digs into the stories of two children who claim to remember past lives. Did blond-haired toddler Luke from Ohio really used to be a Black woman named Pam who died in a fire? Was Scottish child, Cameron Macaulay, really the reincarnation of a man called Shane Robertson who once lived in a white bungalow on the Isle of Barra?

This week on Eavesdroppin', Geordie & Michelle dive into the baffling world of people who seem to vanish without a trace…We've all heard stories about mysterious disappearances, but some cases almost defy explanation. Did a series of young boys really walk out into the snow on various Christmas Eves and disappear into thin air, leaving footprints that seem to just stop? Is there any truth behind the creepy stories of people walking behind cars and never being seen again? And what really happened to Brian Shaeffer, the medical student who entered a crowded bar in Ohio and seemingly vanished forever?

This week, Geordie & Michelle explore the brutal murder of Australian mother of two, Penny Pratt...When 27-year-old Penny Pratt checked herself into a psychiatric facility on the night of November 28, 2010, she believed she was entering a place of safety and care. Instead, over the course of just a few hours, a series of failures, bad decisions and missed opportunities would leave her vulnerable — and ultimately lead to her brutal murder. Why did Penny leave the psychiatric hospital that night? How did violent offenders James Potter and Aaron Gibson become involved? How did so many people fail her at every stage?

Dr. JP Novin speaks with Geordie Hyland, President of American College of Education, about the future of affordable, career-focused higher education in the age of AI. The conversation explores student debt, workforce readiness, AI literacy, online learning innovation, and why institutions must prioritize flexibility, teaching quality, and measurable student outcomes to remain relevant in a rapidly changing economy.

This week, Geordie & Michelle explore the murky world of eugenics...Most parents want their kids to succeed, but what happens when parenting stops being encouragement and starts becoming engineering? This week, Geordie & Michelle look at the bizarre and tragic story of Hildegart Rodríguez — known as The Red Virgin. Born in Madrid in 1914, Hildegart was created by her mother, Aurora Rodríguez Carballeira, as a human experiment. Obsessed with eugenics and the idea of creating the “perfect woman”, Aurora carefully chose a man for his intelligence and social standing, got pregnant, raised a female 'project' and turned Hildegart into a child prodigy. Except at some point, Hildegart began to get a mind of her own and that's when things get dark... Listen now to this story about genius, obsession, control and feminism and what happens when a child is raised as a project instead of a person.

Welcome to a special series of the PGOACA where we take a trip down memory lane with the newest members of the podcast. In this episode, we are talking with a former Geordie-now Mancunian. His specialist subject on Mastermind would be the legend and lore of My Little Pony. Back in the day, he auditioned to be in 99% of British pop groups - Deuce, Take That, Bad Boys Inc... Even the Fast Food Rockers! He's literally the definition of "Pocket Gay". It's Tony!!!

This week, Geordie & Michelle dive into the life and work of the greatest children's author of all time, Roald Dahl...If you've ever read a book by Roald Dahl or watched one of the films inspired by his stories, you might assume his legacy begins and ends with some of the most beloved children's books ever written. But that barely scratches the surface. Beyond his extraordinary imagination as a writer, Dahl lived a life that was as dramatic as any of his stories. He served as a fighter pilot during World War II, survived a crash that nearly killed him, and later worked as a British intelligence agent. He wrote the most successful James Bond film screenplay of all time, caught the attention of Walt Disney, collaborated with Alfred Hitchcock and married a super successful Hollywood actress. He endured the death of a child and supported another through a life-threatening injury and even helped develop a life-saving medical device. But there's also a dark side to Dah's life that begs the question - can you separate the work from the man?

On the back of Artemis 2 safely making it back to Earth, this week Geordie & Michelle are diving into all things space…When the Artemis 2 crew returned in early April, it was a genuinely historic moment. They travelled further from Earth than any humans before them, witnessed a solar eclipse from space, flew over craters and ancient lava flows never seen up close and orbited the far side of the Moon. They didn't land—and no one set foot on the surface—but still, it's the closest we've come in more than 50 years. So this week, Geordie gets into the full Artemis journey—what they actually saw, the conspiracies that immediately started doing the rounds, and of course… the idea that there might be alien colonies hanging out on the Moon.

STEVE HATCHER on OUR FRIENDS IN THE NORTH (part two of two).First broadcast on FAB RADIO INTERNATIONAL at 19:00 on April 26th 2026.OUR FRIENDS IN THE NORTH was an epic drama series produced by the BBC in 1996. Written by PETER FLANNERY and based upon his own stage play, it consisted of nine 63 to 75 minute episodes, each of which charted events in a particular year in the lives of four friends from Tyneside as they survived the ups and downs of their complex, interconnected, and political experiences across three turbulent decades from 1964 to 1995.Often heart-breaking, but also occasionally life-affirming, it's been argued that this series does a lot to confirm some suspicions that it's grim up north, but it starred (and arguably made stars of) CHRISTOPHER ECCLESTON, GINA McKEE, MARK STRONG and DANIEL CRAIG as NICKY, MARY, TOSKER and GEORDIE respectively, and weaved tales of corruption in local government and the police force, as well as documenting the effects of civil turmoil and several destructive political choices, and how they affected the lives of these four particular northern friends as they grew older. Also featuring a host of notable actors, and featuring star turns from PETER VAUGHN and FREDA DOWIE as NICKY'S troubled parents, this production cost £8 MILLION to make which famously consumed half of the entire drama budget of BBC2 for the year.Earlier this year STEVE HATCHER had been eagerly devouring this series and posting his thoughts about it on FACEBOOK, and offered to talk about the series with me for VISION ON SOUND. Naturally, this gave us a lot to talk about, and we over-ran somewhat, so this week we'll be talking about the second half of the story, as well as the radio remake from 2022 which attempted to bring the story up to date.PLEASE NOTE - For Copyright reasons, musical content sometimes has to be removed for the podcast edition. All the spoken word content remains (mostly) as it was in the broadcast version. Hopefully this won't spoil your enjoyment of the show.

This week, Geordie & Michelle dives look at hidden messages...If you were watching telly on the millennium New Year's Eve, you probably saw the word 'Eternity' emblazoned across the Sydney Harbour Bridge in gorgeous cursive handwriting. Like millions around the world, you probably had no idea of its significance and this week, Michelle digs into the mystery behind the man who wrote the word 'Eternity' in chalk on Sydney's streets for more than 30 years... She then moves on to look at a strange phenomena called the Toynbee Tiles that are pressed into road tar around the USA, followed by the Max Headroom TV channel hijacking, and the strange messages implanted into a sculpture at the CIA headquarters in America. So grab a brown lemonade and settle in as the pair chat the dark side of war, Roald Dahl, Beatles songs and more, only on Eavesdroppin'.

This week, Geordie dives into the weird world of creepy masks...When Stanley Kubrick's 1999 film Eyes Wide Shut first hit cinemas, there's no way the director could've predicted what would come next. Not only would the film get swept up in conspiracy theories involving Jeffrey Epstein and shadowy elite cabals, but that one unforgettable scene would basically ruin Venetian carnival masks for an entire generation. In this episode, Geordie nips through the weirder side of Kubrick conspiracies before zooming out on the world of creepy masks. This includes the unsettling leather mask linked to Alexander Peden—with human hair and teeth included—plus the whole strange saga around Napoleon Bonaparte's death mask (what a palaver!). She also digs into how “Rescue Annie,” the CPR training dummy, was based on a real French death mask...

This week, Geordie and Michelle are heading to Kingston, New York, for the true-life case that inspired the show Michelle is currently obsessed with, DTF St Louis...When Thomas Kolman was found in his car outside a gym in 2011, the case seemed to turn into something much darker involving a dentist called Gilberto Núñez. Firstly, the pair were friends. Secondly, Gilberto was doing the do with Thomas's wife, Linda. Then there were sedatives, strange behaviour, fake CIA documents, crazy texts... By the time it reached court, you had a jury being asked to decide whether this was a calculated murder or something far less clear-cut, and the outcome isn't quite what you'd expect. And then you have DTF St Louis, which was loosely based on this strange case.

It's Geordie Jason.

Have you ever seen Gone Girl? This week, Geordie & Michelle look at a true-crime story of a home invasion that went pear-shaped...When a break-in in Vallejo, California, turned into a bizarre kidnapping case, Denise Huskins and Aaron Quinn found themselves at the centre of a story that police — and the media — didn't believe. What initially sounded like a real-life Gone Girl quickly spiraled into something far more disturbing: a case of disbelief, public shaming and a justice system that got it wrong. In this ep, we look at the early morning break-in to Denise's sudden reappearance, and the shocking way authorities handled it all. Why did investigators dismiss Aaron's account so quickly? How did Denise go from victim to suspect in the court of public opinion? What really happened behind the scenes as the truth slowly came out? And how could a narrative take hold before the facts were fully understood?

Geordie and Michelle head into the mountains this week with a series of high-altitude disasters — but what really happened out there? When when Michel Trudeau (son on Pierre and brother of Justin) organised a ski trip with a pal, no one expected him to be swept away by an avalanche. His body has never been recovered, leaving questions that still linger... Then there's the recent tragedy in Patagonia, where a group of experienced hikers were caught in extreme conditions, turning an adventure of a lifetime into a hiking horror show. Michelle also looks at the case of Nicolas Vanderbilt, who set off on a hike with a buddy and was never seen again — no clear trail, no real answers. These tragedies all beg the question - who is really in charge? Man or nature?The pair also dig into the deeply disturbing Khamar Daban incident, where a group of young hikers in Siberia died in bizarre and terrifying circumstances. Did they really succumb to hypothermia? Or does the group's sudden panic, strange behaviour and rapid descent into chaos point to something more sinister hiding in the mountain ice? You decide!

Geordie and Michelle dive into two extraordinary alien abduction stories — or are they?When Marissa Littrell was searching for a college roommate who could provide a bit of support with her blindness, a girl named Raechel was recommended by a U.S. Air Force officer called Harry. At first, it all seemed perfectly ordinary… until it emerged that Harry was a UFO crash investigator and Raechel was his alien-human hybrid foster child. Is Raechel really an alien? What strange “gift” did she give Marissa? And how much of this story holds up under scrutiny? You decide! The pair then turn to the surreal case of Elizabeth Klarer, who claimed she fell in love with a hunky alien named Akon from the planet Meton — and even gave birth to his child, a boy named Ayling. A cosmic romance or an elaborate fantasy? Is Meton a real place somewhere in the universe, or a utopian invention? From mysterious encounters to out-of-this-world love stories, there's a lot to ponder and even more to unpack.

Geordie and Michelle deep dive a confusing Australian true-crime case: Gilham family murders. In 1993 in Woronora, Australia, Stephen and Helen Gilham were stabbed to death, their house was set on fire and their son Christopher was found dead downstairs from multiple stab wounds. Older son, Jeffrey Gilham, claimed he had been sleeping in a boatshed in the back yard before rushing to the house after hearing screams, telling police his brother Christopher confessed to killing their parents before setting their mother's body on fire. Jeffrey admitted stabbing his brother in a rage and initially pleaded guilty to manslaughter, however, after a few plot twists, prosecutors eventually charged Jeffrey with the murder of his parents as well. But that's not the end of this true-crime story...

On Eavesdroppin' comedy podcast, Geordie & Michelle ponder whether the moon landing was a small step or a giant hoax...Do you believe the Americans really landed on the moon? Most people do, but there's always been a vocal group of conspiracy theorists who say otherwise. In this episode, Geordie dives into the origins of one of the biggest conspiracy theories of the 20th century: the idea that Apollo 11 was a hoax, plus she explores the book that first ignited public doubt and how the story spiralled into global fascination. She also looks at Cold War tensions, government cover-ups and the mysterious case of Russia's secret cosmonauts alongside the two Italian brothers who claimed to have intercepted secret radio transmissions that they believe prove something strange was going on behind the scenes of the space race. From missing astronauts to doctored footage and the politics of paranoia, this episode looks at how one small step for man became one giant leap for conspiracy.So grab a brown lemonade and settle in as the duo chat the IP hacks, telly recs and MAFS Australia, only on Eavesdroppin' comedy podcast.

On Eavesdroppin' comedy podcast, Geordie & Michelle look at a smooth-talkin' serial killer NOT called The Snake...Ever heard of a serial killer so smooth he made everyone think he was a nice guy who was helping them? That's Charles Sobhraj — part conman, part celebrity criminal and known as The Serpent. Born in Saigon in 1944, he spent the 1970s drifting along Asia's hippie trail, targeting free-spirited Western backpackers. One minute he was a friendly gem dealer or a rescuer helping with lost passports, the next, his victims were dead — poisoned, drowned or even burned. He stole their identities, travelled on their passports and lived off their money, all while committing at least a dozen murders across Thailand, Nepal and India. When he was finally caught in 1976, Charles Sobhraj turned prison into his own 'hotel', bribing guards, giving interviews and even escaping by drugging everyone at his own jailhouse party. So where is he now? Is he still in prison? And why is the world obsessed with The Serpent?

Inhabitants of the Tyneside region are undoubtedly familiar with the 19th-century song, 'The Blaydon Races'. It describes a journey from Newcastle's city centre to Blaydon to see the races, and even became immortalised in art. The song is traditionally sung in the local Geordie dialect, although over time, some of the language has softened to make it more easily understood by outsiders. Now sung at football and rugby events in the area, the song preserves a slice of history, and the characters that populated the area at the time. Given this month's focus on exploring a city's folk life through its history, looking at a folk song that came to represent the city seems the ideal subject for an episode!  But what are the Blaydon Races, and why did they end up being the subject of a music-hall song? Let's find out in this week's episode of Fabulous Folklore.
