Eat, sleep, rave, repeat everybody, and always check that your tights aren't falling down!

    16: The Dog Suicide Bridge

    This episode Hannah tells us all about Overtoun Bridge, also known as the dog suicide bridge in Scotland. We talk about costumes for dogs, dogs humping and tell of an upcoming court case involving one of our listeners' dogs looking in Daire's window. We also present some evidence involving a crab murder and the alleged suspect - a seven month old sausage dog who shall remain nameless.

    15: Tanya Kach

    15: Tanya Kach

    There's a longer-than-usual introduction to this one folks so if you don't want to hear about periods and therapy feel free to skip to 13:30! That's when Daire delves into the extremely unsettling story of Tanya Kach. There's literally nothing fun to say about this so make sure to Google 'sharks with human teeth' afterwards.

    Trigger Warnings for days.

    13: The 'Silent Twins', June and Jennifer Gibbons

    It's Daire's birthday episode, gang! Take a lil' bump of vandalism, sit back, and let Daire tell you about the strange and tragic story of June and Jennifer Gibbons, the 'Silent Twins'. It turns out, we'd all be sooo creative if it wasn't for drugs. If you like Guinness and feet but three-friend-hugs aren't your thing, then this is the episode for you!
