Chaz Mostert, Ryan Wood, Broc Feeney and Will Brown discuss their weekends at Sandown.
My guest for this episode is writer and researcher Paul A.T. Wilson, who joined me to talk about his ongoing involvement in developments relating to a paranormal encounter that happened on the Isle of Wight in the UK over fifty years ago – that of Sam the Sandown Clown. To describe the events of the initial encounter as unusual is somewhat of an understatement. In 1973, two young children were out playing near Sandown when they met the titular Sam – who was described as wearing a pointy hat, having triangular markings for eyes and a square nose on a pale face and arms and legs that seemed wooden. The children spent some time with Sam in a small hut and spoke with him, after which they left, and both he and his dwelling had disappeared. This encounter eventually featured in a journal of the British UFO Research Association in 1978 after which, the strange events of that day in 1973 faded somewhat, becoming a small part of paranormal history. That was until a few decades later, when Paul was put in contact with someone who claimed to be one of the children who encountered Sam and has been given the pseudonym ‘Fay'. Paul was allowed to meet with Fay and talk to her about her initial encounter with Sam in the process of which she revealed she had met him again on four other occasions. These developments have been part of a renaissance of interest in the Sandown Clown incident, which has seen the adoption of Sam by Sandown as something of a fortean mascot, and him becoming an important part of the islands recent folklore. The interview begins with Paul providing a brief summary of the initial incident, after which we talk about how his own interest in those events started, and how he came to meet with Fay. We discuss the memories she has of her first meeting with Sam, and then go into the subsequent encounters she had with him, exploring the themes they include which may offer some clues as to Sam's true nature. We end by talking about the recent upsurge of interest in the Sandown Clown case, what makes Sam an important part of the Isle of Wight's culture. You can find Paul on Bluesky as Tales of Wihtlore.

The thrilling Coral-Eclipse, a champion jockey in court and British racing's latest showdown with government all come under the microscope in this week's edition of The Front Page. Lee Mottershead, Peter Scargill and James Stevens analyse how Delacroix stole Sandown's premier Flat race from hot favourite Ombudsman before considering what the future might hold for Aidan O'Brien's latest Eclipse hero.

Murphy's offence has caused problems for British racing's governing body but the BHA faces an even starker dilemma in its efforts to persuade government against a tax-raising measure that could cost the sport upwards of £66 million. In a packed programme, Lee, Peter and James debate that and other stories, including Kia Joorabchian's latest personnel change at Amo Racing.

In response to Queen Victoria's love of Osborne House, railways were built that ran from Cowes to Newport and from Ryde to Ventnor. As if to underline the significance of the project, two rival companies, the LSWR and LBSC, collaborated to create a train network that was soon hailed as a triumph of public service over profitability and that ran from Ryde to Ventnor, Freshwater to Newport, Cowes to Ryde via Newport, Newport to Sandown and Merstone to Ventnor. All of this happened in 1860: Railways on the Isle of Wight by Mike Hutton from All-Aboard Games.Read the full review here: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2025/06/28/1860-railways-on-the-isle-of-wight-digital-eyes/Useful Links1860: Railways on the Isle of Wight: https://all-aboardgames.com/products/international-1860-railways-on-the-isle-of-wightRulebook: https://boardgamegeek.com/filepage/238952/third-edition-rulesRules video: https://youtu.be/tb8DpmU0JrE?si=0gUdS68QBy_AOmJQAll-Aboard Games: https://all-aboardgames.com/BGG listing: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/12750/1860-railways-on-the-isle-of-wight18xx.games: https://18xx.games/MusicIntro Music: Bomber (Sting) by Riot (https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/)Sound Effects: bbc.co.uk – © copyright 2025 BBCMusic I Use: Bensound.com/free-music-for-videosLicense code: CILZ3MAE6USRDRHRSupportIf you want to support this podcast financially, please check out the links below:Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/TabletopGamesBlogPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/tabletopgamesblogWebsite: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/support/

Come along for the tale of Sam The Alien Robot Ghost Clown. What was it? An interdimensional being? A ghost? Or nothing at all?!?! You can find all of our wonderful links on the linktree: https://linktr.ee/allts Sam the Sandown Ghost Clown is a bizarre and mysterious figure from one of the UK's strangest alleged paranormal encounters. The story originates from a report published in the 1970s in a British paranormal magazine called Bufora Journal, which is associated with the British UFO Research Association (BUFORA). It is one of the most surreal accounts in British folklore and fringe paranormal lore.
