Loremen Podcast

Big clumps ahoy! The Loremen encounter two large hills, each with beech trees atop. They're easily the top beech-tree-topped hills covered by this podcast since Chanctonbury Ring. The clumps are steeped in history, drenched in sauce and, sadly for James, riddled with poetry. And, yes. Don't worry, we talk about that Beatles documentary that everyone is talking about at the moment. Loreboys nether say die!

In one corner of Dartmoor, things just ain’t right. Could it be James shouting into a different cupboard? Perhaps lockdown madness is returning? Or… is the the craziness of Crazywell Pool catching?

Alasdair and James return to the furthermost reaches of (what we jokingly call) the United Kingdom. It’s Shetland! This time we’ve found ourselves a local guide in the form of comedian, storyteller and improvisor – Marjolein Robertson. Learn why you should never mention a ‘beniman’ aboard a boat and why there’s no such thing as a free shirt. Somehow, the loreboys manage to run afoul of an ancient sea god, oil riggers and – their mortal enemy – the Federation Against Copyright Theft (FACT). Loreboys nether say die!

Plus, an opportunity to discover whether a leaking engine is a big deal on a steamship (HINT: it is). Content Warning: References to drug use, Queen Victoria, and Queen Victoria's drug use.

A quiet English home is disturbed by the sounds of piano music... but the Forster family do not own a piano. Pretty spooky, huh? So begins one of the most inexplicable hauntings the Loremen have ever encountered. Podcasting from their sickbeds, two brave little Loreboys share a ghost story featuring numerous unexplained apparitions and a guest appearance from disembodied cryptid, The Hairy Hands of Dartmoor. Plus, a timely reminder of the difference between a cat food magnate and a cat food magnet. How do you like (bobbing for) them apples? Loreboys nether say die!

A dead husband returns with a dreadful warning... Yes, it's another spoopy episode! This tale of tragedy and terror comes from the North East of England. Whilst we think it might not be a real ghost (and we are certain it's not a real chicken) this investigation does afford a rare opportunity to meet Joseph Stalin at the seaside. And is only slightly undermined by the Loreboys laughing at the protagonist's name. Loreboys nether say die!

The Loremen visit a famously chilly Cotswolds town and meet a quintessentially British poltergeist. In 1963, an ordinary Stow-On-The-Wold family experienced something quite extraordinary. Their chilling tale features booby traps, a gifted plumber, and the most cantankerous household spirit since Gef The Talking Mongoose. Join us, on this spine-chilling journey, and also learn why Heraclitus didn’t know crap about rivers. Loreboys nether say die!
