On this week's episode of Local Legends, Martin gathers round the campfire to talk about the folklore of Middlesex with the hosts of The Loremen Podcast James Shakeshaft and Alasdair Beckett-King.Over seven years ago, when they were fairly early in their careers as stand-up comedians, James and Alasdair found themselves chatting about folklore on a road trip to the South West. After amusing one another in the car, they wondered if the world might like to be in on the joke. So The Loremen was born. Ever since, and across five series, they have been poking into the weird and wonderful world of half-true stories from days of yore, and sharing their explorations, much to the Internet's collective glee.In this episode, Martin steers James and Alasdair's attentions toward the lore of the historic county where they met - which is better known today as London. Encompassing buried temples beneath the financial district, mysterious automata, dragons, The London Monster, myths of gigantic kings, famous ghosts, and a surprising amount of chat about The Muppets, it's perhaps the giggliest episode of Local Legends we've released, but that's no bad thing! Learn more about The Loremen here: https://www.loremenpodcast.com/The Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays (Magic and Medicines about folk remedies and arcane spells, Three Ravens Bestiary about cryptids and mythical creatures, Dying Arts about endangered heritage crafts, and Something Wicked about folkloric true crime from across history) plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcast Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Today we look at a criminal plot that would put Lex Luthor to shame, then we travel to England to explore it's history of insane maniacs terrorizing cities. Not during wars, I guess I have to add. Asgeirr Ulfr was a man with a plan. A bad plan, but a plan none the less. Could he pull off assaulting a woman then running in to save her in the nick of time? I guess you already know the answer is “No, no he cannot.” Then we travel to merry Ole England to visit some madmen who went out of their way to make the miserable lives of the old timey people even worse. From the supposed “Halifax Slasher” to the crazy attacks of “Whipping Tom,” the Old World was definitely not a fun place to live!

Liz and Jon strap on their stab-proof underpants and delve into one of London's stranger crimes, a two year reign of terror where no woman's posterior was safe!
19th century London saw two of the most sensational public scares in its long history when the enigmatic Spring Heeled Jack stalked the alleyways of the capital city and in 1888, when Jack the Ripper enacted his reign of the streets, bringing about an autumn of terror that has since become infamous. One hundred years earlier, however, the streets were stalked by another threat, one that many consider a precursor to both Spring Heeled Jack and Jack The Ripper, and one that remains, to this day, one of the strangest, most bizarre cases in the entire criminal history of London.

Running around London, prodding posh princesses' with a pointy thing, seemed to be a legit pastime for at least one chap in the late 1700's.Many a fair maiden was accosted, thoroughly insulted and attacked by just such an ungentlemanly gentleman, mostly around the wealthier areas of the Capital. The list of victims grows as the Bow Street Runners fail to bust a cap in his ass, while he's popping pins in other peoples asses.What a time to be alive.

PRICKS & PRIVACY: needle spiking, are our phones listening to us and more What on earth does our title mean? This week on Eavesdroppin', we start off by talking about TV shows Michelle is obsessed with before Geordie moves on to the ser-i-ous topic of needle spiking. *DISCLAIMER: We are not victim blaming in any way, merely investigating thoughts and theories… Right, now that's clear… What is needle spiking? Why has it become a new date-rape phenomena in the UK? Are women being pricked and injected, or is it something else? Who is The London Monster? What is Piquerism? And is unauthorized hair cutting assault? Is the phenomena actually needle spiking or drink spiking? Is it a real thing or scare mongering? Listen in to make your own mind up… Then the pair move on to the issue of privacy… Well Michelle gets slightly ranty about it and is kind of shocked that no one seems to care about digital privacy anymore… Are we being listened to by our phones? Should we care? Would we trade convenience for privacy? And is it OK that the UK government creates a referendum to exit the EU but doesn't ask us if we consent to having all of our online activity tracked and stored? What about CCTV – is surveillance without consent OK? Is having our privacy and freedoms taken away an issue? Or is it just a byproduct of the digital age that we just need to accept? Listen in to find out! We hope you enjoy the episode and remember, wherever you are, whatever you do, just keep Eavesdroppin'! *Disclaimer: We don't claim to have any factual info about anything ever, soooooorrrrrryyyyyyyy Get in touch with your stories and listen, like, subscribe, share etc… Or email us at hello@eavesdroppinpodcast.com Listen here: www.eavesdroppinpodcast.com Or here: https://podfollow.com/1539144364 EAVESDROPPIN' ON SPOTIFY : https://open.spotify.com/show/3BKt2Oy4zfPCxI7LDOQLN4 APPLE PODCASTS : https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/eavesdroppin/id1539144364 GOOGLE PODCASTS : https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkLnBvZGJlYW4uY29tL2VhdmVzZHJvcHBpbi9mZWVkLnhtbA?hl=en YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqcuzv-EXizUo4emmt9Pgfw Our Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/eavesdroppinpodcast Or wherever you normally listen… #needlespiking #privacy #consent #drugged #daterapedrugs #euphoria #fezco #piquerism #drinkspiking #podcast #comedy #comedypodcast #truestories #truecrime #truelife #storytellingpodcast #eavesdroppin#eavesdroppinpodcast #top10podcasts #ukpodcast #funny #podcastersofinstagram#podcasters #podcastlife #funnypodcast #2birdsyakkin

Unlocking this between-season break episode because it'll dove-tail nicely with our bonus episode this month on "The Raven" (1935): Instituted in 1936, the British Board of Film Censors' "H" certificate effectively banned horror films in the United Kingdom, which directly led to the end of the Golden Age of Horror, and the financial ruin of struggling actor Bela Lugosi. Three years later, Lugosi himself starred in "The Dark Eyes of London," the first British film to receive the "H" certificate.Works Cited:Arthur Lennig, The Immortal Count: The Life and Times of Bela Lugosi (2003)Bryan Senn, Golden Horrors: An Illustrated Critical Filmography of Terror Cinema, 1931 - 1939 (1996)All original music courtesy of Niel Jakobyhttps://nieljacoby.bandcamp.com/Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/MonsterCrazeMemoirsOfficialiTunes/Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/monster-craze-memoirs/id1491963648Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3aSrQ5JFez33XuVanaFYIwPocket Casts: https://pca.st/lkra63chSoundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/user-3949861YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBGcDWtQj2wGEnlAB7P4AFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Monster-Craze-Memoirs-106199087480182/Twitter: https://twitter.com/KennethJWaste2

When a crazed man started stabbing women in the butts with pins in 1788, the city was in an uproar. But when he started slashing their dresses with a knife, well, that’s a panic.

On this weeks episode of Expanded Perspectives the guys start the show off talking about how bee populations around the world have been in decline for years due to a number of reasons that make it extremely difficult to fix the problem. Urban development, insecticides, fungicides, illness, climate change, and many other factors have been determined to be responsible for the decline in bee populations. This week, the nonprofit Bee Informed Partnership and the Apiary Inspectors of America published their annual survey of 4,963 beekeepers in the United States and it seems that we still have a problem. But it was a slightly better year for our vital pollinating friends. Then, millions of Americans say they engage in extreme binge drinking — or downing at least eight to 10 drinks containing alcohol on a single occasion — and the behavior appears to be on the rise in the U.S., according to a new report. The findings are concerning because this high level of drinking is linked with health and safety risks, including an increased risk of injury or even death, according to the researchers, from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA). The study "reveals that a large number of people in the United States drink at very high levels and underscores the dangers associated with such 'extreme' binge drinking," George F. Koob, director of the NIAAA, said in a statement. The researchers analyzed information from more than 36,000 Americans ages 18 and older who completed a survey about their alcohol consumption in 2012 to 2013. The researchers asked the participants to report the maximum number of alcoholic drinks they consumed on a single day in the past year. Binge drinking was defined as consuming four or more drinks on a single occasion (for women), or five or more drinks on a single occasion (for men), while extreme binge drinking was defined as consuming double those amounts, or more. Then, for years, scientists have debated whether heavy inland snowfall on the vast East Antarctic Ice Sheet — Earth’s largest — balances out the rapid melting in West Antarctica. Given enough snowfall, the continent might not yet be contributing to sea level rise. Most research shows the melt rate is so high that the continent is indeed losing ice. But in 2015, a group of NASA scientists published a controversial study that found Antarctica was instead gaining ice. The NASA team combined space- and land-based measurements and found so much snow dropping in East Antarctica that even with drastic melting elsewhere, the continent was adding some 80 billion tons of ice annually. It contradicted prominent previous findings — including reports from the U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The result drew global headlines and excited climate change skeptics. That’s despite warnings from the study’s lead author, NASA Goddard’s chief cryospheric scientist Jay Zwally, who predicted that melting would outpace increased snowfall in a decade or two.

On this weeks episode of Expanded Perspectives the guys start the show off talking about how bee populations around the world have been in decline for years due to a number of reasons that make it extremely difficult to fix the problem. Urban development, insecticides, fungicides, illness, climate change, and many other factors have been determined to be responsible for the decline in bee populations. This week, the nonprofit Bee Informed Partnership and the Apiary Inspectors of America published their annual survey of 4,963 beekeepers in the United States and it seems that we still have a problem. But it was a slightly better year for our vital pollinating friends.
