  • Dead Famous: Touring LA’s Killer Past
    I’ve got a bit of an interesting one for you today. I’m speaking with Adam from Grave Line tours in LA.We do go into lots of detail in the ep but basically it’s a murder tour. And it’s one of those things which I feel a bit weird about… But a the same time, I consume true crime content.So it’s a bit of a funny one, and we do speak about the ethics of running this sort of business, but I’ll tell you what – Adam really knows his stuff, and these tours are more than just gory moments – it’s the history of one of the most interesting cities on the planet.Now you’ve probably already clocked it, we are speaking about some pretty heavy and graphic topics, if you’re not feeling up to it, maybe save this episode for another time.I really enjoyed this conversation, and I hope you do to….

    Today we're revisiting a very special episode, this one was requested by Steph, a lovely listener in Western Australia. I had never heard of "The Dancing Plague" until Steph reached out - such an interesting moment in history. Really enjoyed making this one, so thank you so much for requesting it Steph.In this episode we're going back in time, revisiting a remarkable event that unfolded in the city of Strasbourg, wayyyy back when. This historical phenomenon, known as the Strasbourg Dancing Plague, is truly bizarre... and absolutely fascinating.
