Ep 106: Ghost in the Bath

This week we have an unseasonably supernatural wander through haunted tales, superstitions and potential possessions - from haunted bread to a floating wobbly woman coming up the stairs. Joe sends a shiver through our spines with a terrifying tale of some potential hauntings in his home and an inexplicable fear of a man in his bath, while Darren is suspicious of a ghostly sliced pan. We also explore the origins of superstitions, from knocking on wood to a fear of the ominous potential of black cats, and why poisoned crops lay at the heart of the Salem Witch Trials. There are some bizarre tales of impersonators - from a globe trotting French fraudster to the man who enjoyed the high-life posing as Robert De Niro. Besides all that, Joe argues playing a gig in front of 25 people in a pub is what musicians really want, rather than playing Croke park, and Darren tells us about navigating a world of violence in Finglas as a young lad.
