Gather round your camp fires and listen! To tales of daring, horror and high adventure from the worn pages of our History Book Not a talky Podcast. More like Action Radio! Join the man known only as the Pear Bear, the unflappable Tombo and your new favourite Uncles BobBob & Bilbo. Let us take a questionably queasy trip through the squishy bits of history and myth. Fun for all the family? We don’t know yet... But we promise it’ll be silly, it’ll be fun!

Grab your hacksaw, lock picks and balaclava and join the Silly History Boys for a historic crime spree...the prize?
The Crown Jewels of England!
Join the dashing Irish rogue Colonel Blood and his gang of idiots as they embark on a journey that will lead to one of the most daring (and frankly silly) robberies in British and Irish history!
But how much of the legend of Colonel Blood is true? And was he dashing romantic rascal or an awful history man?*
This ripping yarn takes us haring across battlements of Dublin Castle, through the seedy underbelly of restoration London and to a moonlight shoot out under the eves of the dreaded Tyburn gallows. Via a specialist coffee shop in Amsterdam!
But theirs more to the rogue than just the robbery...so stay tuned next time...for there will be Blood!
