    468 - The Amityville Horror

    In the 1970s, a large family home in Amityville, New York was the site of a grisly mass murder - a year later the hauntings began! This is the story of one of the most famous haunted houses in the world, and the 8th most voted for topic for Block 2024! Enjoy! This is a comedy/history podcast, the report about the murders begins at approximately 07:56, the live section which includes the hauntings begins 25:46 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).

    466 - The Ern Malley Mystery (with Wil Anderson)

    Ern Malley has become one of Australia's most famous and enduring poets. Celebrated by the Angry Penguins literature movement of the 1940s, it soon came to light that there was a small problem with modernism's new hero... the poet didn't actually exist and the whole thing was an elaborate hoax. Joining us to hear about the Ern Malley Affair is Wil Anderson. This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 13:00 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).
