Poppy Hillstead has entered the podcast! Award winning comic and podcaster (Poppy Hillstead Has Entered The Chat) joins the Loreboys with a tale of the Green Lady who haunted her childhood in the Lincolnshire Wolds. In a shocking twist, the Green Lady turns out to be a) real, b) Spanish and c) kinda clingy. Find out why everyone is talking about Poppy’s pig’s eyes, marvel at the ultimate stag-do-gone-wrong, and listen very carefully – James might just sing! Loreboys nether say die!

S3 Ep72: Loremen S3 Ep72 - The Miner and the Ghost

Alasdair Beckett-King and James Shakeshaft head for the haunted heights of Derbyshire’s High Peak. Somewhere between Light Peak and Dark Peak, betwixt spooky and spoopy, they uncover a tale of drunken revelry and unearthly terror. This episode also features parachute petticoats and an ode to The Pub that borders on (without actually being) poetry. P.S. Let’s make “Noon of Night” a thing. Loreboys nether say die!

S3 Ep71: Loremen S3 Ep71 - The Curious Case of the Zetetic Astronomers

Alasdair takes us to the flat, flat Fenlands and tells tales of some proper old-school oddballs. The sort of people who like to question the mainstream narrative. The sort of people who, if they were around nowadays, would probably wear a mask but not over their nose. You know the sort. BONUS: This episode also includes a cut-out-and-keep haircut fact that will endear you to your workmates, family and friend. Loreboys nether say die!

S3 Ep70: Loremen S3 Ep 70 - The Hoar Stone of Enstone

James takes Alasdair on a guided tour of the Cotswolds’ less famous standing stones. This episode is hot, hot, hot, in many senses of the word. Is it the sultry ambience of a summer evening in James’s shed? Is it the phallic power of these B-list monoliths? Or is it... Swede dreams? Hopefully, we will never find out. Loreboys nether say die!

S3 Ep67: Loremen S3 Ep67 - Ben Van der Velde - The Dybbuk

Ben Van der Velde (Worst Foot Forward Podcast) treats the Loremen to a tour of Jewish mysticism, the dreaded dybbuk and (of course) the world's original robot bouncer - the golem.

Oh, you thought we'd run out of things to say about Saturday night TV in the 90s? You thought wrong. Gotcha! Content Warning: we touch on historic antisemitism and related conspiracy theories.
