Urbane Legends

On this weeks episide we explore the wild swine of hampstead, find out far more about the shit based economy of Victorian London than expected and hang out with the Toshers and Tosher adjacent rougues like Queen Rat. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This one is for the completionists. We look at the looooooong and boring original creepypasta Ted the Caver. Listen in amazement as the guys struggle through this episode, with grit, determination and an almost fanatical devotion to their craft. Basically, we are sorry. It makes excellent brown noise to go to sleep to. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Tonight on Urbane Legends - Miami.... "you got some god dam nerve showing up here"...."Its not what it looks like..."...."You we're like a brother to me"...."I'll tell you who i am, im the god dam mayor of this city, and your off the case"...."i thought i'd find you here, that seat taken?"...."Just like old times!"......"I learned that one in the Navy"....."Neil? Neil?! Noooooooooo!" We also look...

Morning. This episode takes us to Brazil in the 1990's, no it isn't a tail of Suede's antics on tour but a close encounter of the sweaty kind. So what we know is it definitely isn't Prince Andrew...this time. There was a UFO crash ('we dont got wind where we comes from!') investigated by a military man, and three young women found the alien, alone and scarred in a lot behind the shops or something...

Howay! This week we travel (metaphorically, we wouldn't actually travel, train fairs being what they are) to the mysterious and surreal area of the North East of Engerland. For once, this is an actual intriguing story of haunting which is not easily explained (without the help of throwing in the wild card of Gerard Depardeiu, which we obviously did). Over a century 3 families, multiple generations...

This week on the podcast, which youtube has issues with due to its outsized influence in the US and UK elections apparently, we have another story which starts with people drinking shine on the porch at 2am, its the Houston Batman. Was he or they a midnight creeper and peeper? A UFO? Shine madness? We may never know but something did happen because it was reported in newspapers, the gold standard....

Trigger Warning! There is computer game chat in this episode. Are Neil and Chris doing a dry run for a re-boot of Gamesmaster with Joe Swash as the new Patrick Moore? Keep your eyes glues to the Dave channel. In this episode we dig through the landfill of late stage capitalist thinking but was there actually something else going on? The guys certainly seem to have some questions that need answers...

It this weeks more reasonable episode we have a look at the internet legend of Funland. It's a story about blossoming manhood and being in love with a very tempting, very enticing inanimate object. We have all thought about it but what happens when the object becomes the objectee and the manhood becomes the cooker hood? Well, thats one read of the story, another is someone once saw and episode of...

Welcome to Engerland, home of the pint, home of the brave, did Jesus footsteps once walk upont these sacred hills? Borley Rectory is in England. But it's not pints it serves, its the paranormal. With a chaser of lust. Easy, you've had a few, sure you can drive? Of course lust driving is the second biggest killer on Angerlands roads after American diplomats wives, so be safe. The episode is much li...

Having settled all their legal disputes, medical claims and blood feuds the lads (42 and 47 respectively) are back in the saddle of the strange and enlightening world of Urban Legends. For a bit of fun to kick off the series we have a chuckle at classic bants Weekly World News and their main pin up (it's meant to be erotic right?) Batboy. Yep from the caves of West Virginia, where I get my backy,...

In the free wheeling, bring your toys to school day final episode of the series we look at the frankly unimpressive Chupa (Suck) Cabra (Chub). Much like fellow stars Mcauly Culken, Snow and Chaka Demus and Plyas its imperial phase was the 90's. Ah the 90's, remember when we were in the 90's and though everything was shit? Can't Sunday Quarterback the ghost of a whisper of a glimpse of your younger...

This weeks episode is about Badang the Strongman. An inspiration for us all he brings himself up from humble beginings through hardwork and eating vomit. Feat possibly Snoop Dogg's finest film role, Amazon innovative business plan and more Elon discussion. Co starring Winnie the Pooh and Mickey Mouse (out of copyright versions only). Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information...

Back in the regular slot after the Christmas and the New Year Eve we are asking ourselves the question that dare no speak its name but returns to us every night in the liminal space twixt wake and dream; How much Vodka is too much Vodka. Is too much Vodka when you cheerfully tell a tall tale based on a sci fi short or in fact is the the right amount of Voddy because its a laugh. Also lots of Chris...

This week we are looking at the legend of the Yuki-onna a sometimes nice more often nasty japanese personification of winter. Find up what we've been up to, reasons to be cheerful this year, how Geoff Capes got his powers, and how we feel about winter, ravines, and woodcutters. Hosted on Acast.

In this weeks late episode we stray unknowingly into the realm of TRUCRIM as we question why this is considered an Internet Urban Legend, have we been hoisted on Chris's petard? Wouldn't be the first time, kid wont put his petard away Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What to make of this? Like so much of today it exists but it dosnt exist, its no one thing and also nothing but something. I'm going to bed Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

No, this is isn't a headline from the medium future when Neil and Chris' K-Pop act finally break bad in Seoul, it is the curious urban legend around the very real dangers of fans. I'm scared of many things, thistles, cob webs, Beaker (puppet), white foods and a dog i met Kinshasa to name a few but never a fan. Whats that all about? Listen. Hosted on Acast.

If you dont have time to listen the answer is a resounding yes Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy...
