Eavesdroppin'

This week on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast, Geordie & Michelle look at two Black Widows...Betty Neumar, dubbed the "Black Widow Granny," was a seemingly ordinary woman - except for the fact that all five of her husbands were dead. When Police began investigating exactly how her husbands died, the details were sketchy. With little evidence and a lot of speculation, two questions emerged: was Betty a serial killer who knocked off her hubbies for the insurance money? Or was she a woman who was dealt a REALLY crappy hand of bad luck? Michelle investigates...Geordie follows with a mini dive into the life of Dena Thompson - AKA, The Black Widow of Sussex. Murderer, fraudster, catfisher, bigamist - Dena knew how to reel in vulnerable men and rinse them for all they had. But how did she con all these blokes? What were her tactics? And how did it all unravel for her? Listen now to hear how Dena mixed charm with deception to get what she wanted...So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus chat about peanut butter, a woman who was nearly cremated, an echidna spot and more, only on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast.

This week on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast, Geordie & Michelle ponder life and death...Would you want to be cryogenically frozen and brought back to life in the future? How about freezing a beloved pet? Or just your brain? It sounds kind of great if you think about it in the abstract, but this week, Geordie dives into the practical ins and outs of cryonics and the potential horrors of reanimation. Split skin? New blood? Instant body decay? No brain activity? Could all happen! Entering a world where you know no one and your money’s no good? Certainly possible! Listen now to hear the horror…Michelle follows with a moving near-death experience story. When 17 year old Venia Hill travelled from her hometown of Philadelphia to Italy on a school excursion, things went horribly wrong. Too excited to sleep, Venia took a bunch of caffeine pills to keep her awake and overdosed - with disastrous consequences. Listen now to hear how Venia experienced her near-death experience, what she was shown, who she met on her journey and what she learned about life, death and the other side.So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus chat about scrags, The Smiths, pubic hair and more, only on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast.

This week on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast, Geordie & Michelle discuss psychic detectives...In 1983, 25-year-old Jacqueline Poole from west London was murdered in her home. Just streets away, a woman called Christine Holohan contacted police shortly after the crime, claiming to have received psychic visions about the killer, the victim and the scene. Her detailed descriptions seemed spot on - but the police didn't act on the info. Listen now to hear the twists and turns of Jacqueline's case and how DNA evidence retrospectively supported Christine's claims...Geordie follows with a look at the other side of the psychic detective coin... Do police actually use psychics to help solve cases? What are the numbers? Geordie has the stats! Plus she digs into the work of Benjamin Bradford, a noted skeptic and debunker, who has exposed psychic claims by analysing psychic methods and showing how supposed “psychic hits” can be explained through cold reading, coincidence, or selective memory. Psychic detectives... Real or fake? You decide!So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus chat about jelly shoes, Wordle, creative swearing and more, only on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast.

This week on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast, Geordie & Michelle ponder aliens, clowns and UFOs...On a cloudless afternoon in southern Finland in 1970, two skiers stopped to take a break and saw strange lights in the sky. Then they saw a space craft. Then they saw aliens in cute outfits. Then… well, you’ll have to listen if you want to know what happened next to Aarno Heinonen and Esko Viljo. May include sexy spacewomen…Geordie follows with a look at The Sandown Clown. Since we touched on the story earlier this year, there has been new information about the enigmatic creature, who, in 1973, made contact with two children on the Isle of Wight. The older child, ‘Faye’, said the being looked like a strange clown, called himself All Colours Sam and ate berries through his ear. Now an adult, Faye has recently spoken out about the encounter and her interactions with the being… So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus chat about wigs, Eric Bana and more, only on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast.

This week on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast, Geordie & Michelle celebrate Halloween by looking at hauntings and horror… Imagine sitting on the loo only to have the door fly open by a dwarf monk holding a severed forearm. Could only happen at Hobstones, a haunted farm in Yorkshire, England, where spooky goings on happen on the reg. Geordie also looks at the gruesome history surrounding the witches of Pendle and the grisly end for those caught up in the witch hunt! Michelle follows with a look at a classic tale of horror from the King of Horror himself, Stephen King. When Pet Sematary was published in the early 1980s, author Stephen King said it was the scariest book he'd ever written - and this is coming from the author of It and The Shining! So what is it that makes Pet Sematary so scary? What's the back story? Why is it misspelled? And why did it almost never see the light of day? Listen now!

This week on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast, Geordie & Michelle look at two celebrities, Gawn Too Soon...On March 31st 1993, on the set of The Crow, it was just another day at work for 28 year old actor Brandon Lee. Until it wasn’t. Just like the recent Rust controversy, there was an incident with a prop gun that went horribly wrong. So what happened that day? Who was Brandon Lee? How did he die? And what has been his legacy? Listen now!Michelle follows with a look at the tragic life and death of musical icon, Karen Carpenter. With a voice as smooth as the satin she wore on stage, she was half of The Carpenters, the brother sister duo behind some of the greatest hits of the 70s. Yet unbeknownst to the world, Karen was struggling with a little-known disorder called anorexia nervosa.

This week on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast, Geordie & Michelle look at a couple of cults...Have you heard of the Zizians? They're the cult you have when you're not having a cult because there's apparently no leader, no organisation and no group. However, there are whole lot of deaths and a whole lotta convoluted twists and turns! A radical group of trans-gender geniuses that grew out of the Bay Area’s rationalist and vegan communities, the Zizians are so-named because of the main figurehead, Ziz (previously known as Jack LaSota). Their journey from being a fringe offshoot of rationalist culture out to save the world from AI, to shootouts and stabbings is a wild ride...Geordie follows with a look at the Sovereign Citizens Movement, AKA the SovCits. They're a kinda loose anti-government collective who believe they are independent of societal laws and authority, ie, that they don't have to pay taxes or restaurant bills, don't need a driving license and aren't bound by courts and rulings, because they believe the government is illegitimate. It’s not so much an organised cult but more of a conspiracy-driven ideology connected to various scams and anti-government violence. Geordie dives into charismatic leader Mark Christopher and the time he tried to shut down a coroner's court in the UK - listen now!
