Standing on Ceremony

The final two years of the 11th century feel like someone was trying to tie up a bunch of plotlines before the start of season 12. Things are moving fast, everybody is suddenly in different countries, and inevitably…some of these characters aren’t having their contracts renewed. The post 483 – Standing on Ceremony first appeared on The British History Podcast.

Murder, Mannequins, and Mystery Meat

👉 LIVE SHOW TICKETS Step into the bizarre with this episode of The Box of Oddities—where medical mysteries, immortal mannequins, and murderous sausage kings collide. First, we unravel one of the strangest medical cases in modern history: Patient AB, who discovered the voices in her head weren’t a symptom, but a life-saving alarm system. Then we pucker up for the story of Resusci Anne, whose face has been kissed over 300 million times since her mysterious death more than a century ago. Finally, we sink our teeth into the chilling tale of Adolph Louis Luetgert, the infamous “Sausage King of Chicago,” whose legacy is as greasy as it is gruesome. Weird history, true crime oddities, and unbelievable science—this episode has it all. #WeirdHistory #TrueCrimePodcast #MedicalMystery #ResusciAnne #BoxOfOddities #StrangeButTrue #DarkHistory Learn more about your ad choices.

The Rothschilds: Europe’s Jewish Banking Dynasty

“As rich as a Rothschild” was a common saying in the gilded age. Their rags to riches story reads like many other great modern financial dynasties; a brilliant founder who forged a fortune and future generations who squandered it on eccentricities. But the Rothschilds have a few interesting twists; The Patriarch’s five sons were sent across Europe to establish their own banking dynasties. They explicitly excluded their sisters and daughters from the business, and inbred extensively to keep their wealth intact. And the Rothschilds were uniquely vilified because they were Jewish. They were targeted by the Nazis and saw much of their art, palaces and cash stolen. And they continue to inspire conspiracy theories which claim they secretly control the world. Let’s uncover the true story of the Rothschilds. Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!

Lost In Time, Found In A Tutu

LIVE SHOW TIX HERE Imagine taking a wrong turn and winding up in a version of your hometown that doesn’t—and maybe never did—exist. That’s exactly what happened to Carol Chase McElheney when she stumbled into a bizarre time slip in Riverside, California—a place both familiar and terrifyingly wrong. Was it a glitch in the matrix, a parallel universe, or just an exceptionally creepy case of bad directions? Meanwhile, in Anchorage, Alaska, a completely different kind of magic was at work: Linny Pacillo and the Anchorage Parking Fairies. Armed with wings, tutus, and a sense of rebellion, these whimsical enforcers fought parking meters with glitter and sass. From cosmic slip-ups to tutu-clad protest, this episode of The Box of Oddities Podcast dives into the weird, wonderful, and wildly unexpected. Buckle up—it’s a ride through the absurd that only Box of Oddities can deliver. #TimeSlip #UrbanLegends #WeirdHistory #PodcastLife #BoxOfOddities Learn more about your ad choices.
