I’m Not The Expert But..

Welcome To The Middle Ages Stinkbags!

THE EPISODE BEGINS AFTER OUR CHRISTMAS AD!
The Middle Ages stunk! That's my opinion, so there.
Join us this #Friday, as we take a look at the general hygiene standards of the Middle Ages. It's not so much a look at the sanitation they lived with (we covered that in Are You Taking Sh!te Again[?] and there's no need to go over it again). 
This one is a look at how often they washed (but it's not too close a look on account of the smell).
Some of the evidence in history books that argued the point that the #MiddleAges DIDN'T stink, and some argued that the #MiddleAges DID stink.
My argument isn't that they weren't hygienic (or aware of it's importance), I argue that the whole age STUNK! And as we'll see in the episode, their method of washing their clothes undoubtedly led to an abundance of stink & funk.
Join us as we hold our noses while we investigate one of the smelliest times in #history.

The easily avoidable disaster of the Titanic

One of the most well known sea disasters is the story of #Titanic, the world’s first 'unsinkable ship', which sank on its maiden voyage across the #Atlantic.
 
It’s a story we all know but what you mightn’t know is just how badly #WhiteStarLines behaved before AND after the tragedy. Or how badly the captains of a couple of vessels behaved during the events of the 15th of April, 1912.
 
The tragedy of Titanic prompted a series of stricter #maritime safety standards. And rightly so.
 
In this episode, we discuss the #tragedyofTitanic’s sinking and the horrendous loss of life that occurred, brought on by the irresponsible actions of many individuals and how appalling some people (not on the ship), behaved.

Vampires!!!

The final instalment of our #Halloween2024 extravaganza: #Zombies! & #Werewolves!! & #Vampires!!! (oh my) has dropped!
In #Vampires!!!, we explore the very disturbing origins of the biggest #dawg of them all, the big cheese, the head honcho, Dracula.
Even though #Dracula wasn't the origin of the #Vampire legend, he's the most famous of them all. With Incredible speed, strength, impressive longevity and a questionable dress sense, #Dracula is the stuff of nightmares. 
Looking like a bulldog licking p*ss off a nettle one minute, and then a suave sh*te the next, #Dracula could pop up anywhere at any time. Provided it's not daytime. #Dracula don't play that particular game.
Join us for a very disturbing look at the #origins of the one, the only, the very reprehensible, #Dracula.
Happy Halloween Everybody!

Werewolves!!

The second chapter in our #Halloween2024 extravaganza: "Zombies & Werewolves & Vampires, oh my!" is here!
This time we're taking a look at the very sinister #origins of #werewolves. I don't mind admitting that this #episode freaked me out when I was researching it. I kinda had a fair idea where this one was going to lead but I absolutely DID NOT expect that it would have such disturbing beginnings!
I guess this is what #AllHallowsEve is about.
Shocked. Shocked, I tells ya!Join us as we dive into the very disturbing #origins of #lycans. Keep an eye out for the last episode dropping at midnight on 31st of October (Halloween Night)!#INTEB #ImNotTheExpertBut

Zombies!

"Zombies & Werewolves & Vampires, oh my!" - to quote Dorothy & co when they were walking through the forest in the #WizardofOz. Although I do admit my memory isn't what it used to be so I might be remembering it a bit wrong.
Anyhoo, welcome to the first chapter of our #Halloween2024 extravaganza. To kick it off, we're taking a look at the #Origins and #evolutions of #Zombies.
This is going to be the first of three quick-fire #episode drops right up to #AllHallowsEve. It's a remarkable look at how #zombies got from where they were, to where they are now. You may know thei #origins but you'll never guess what a zombie fears..
Join us as we delve into the dark, dank #world of the #undead.
Keep an eye out for the second episode on the 28th of #October (Monday) and the third episode, on 31st of October (Halloween Night)!

A look-back at The Origins of Halloween from season 1

As a bit of a prelude to Halloween 2024, we're taking a look back at Samhain - The Origins of Halloween from season 1.
This is one of our favourite episodes because it's one of our favourite times of the year! Maybe it's the fact that we get to watch wall-to-wall horror movies, or maybe that we get to flex our pagan muscles, or maybe it's because we get to eat far too many sweets.
Whatever the reasons might be, this is, without doubt, the greatest gift #Ireland has ever given to the world.
Join us as we dive back into Samhain in preparation for this year's episode which will be out in just a couple of weeks...

INTEBstock: Day Two

Day 2 of INTEBstock is a wind down to the inaugural INTEBstock festival. Well, maybe not so much a wind down as a roaring handbraker to end the joyride!
In hindsight, maybe wellies were an item we should've suggested in the first episode but, it is what it is, you're here now, you may as well get muddy up to you eyeballs!
And on the main stage...we have our two mic controllers for the day..
