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!

Velkomin to the Silly History Boys Show. Join the windswept Pear Bear, the salty Tombo, and your new favourite Naut-Uncles BobBob & Bilbo.
All aboard for a voyage to strange and distant lands, first contact with new civilisations and bickering upon the high seas of history.
In this new and rebranded first episode you’ll hear The True Saga of Leif Erikson the Norse Sea Captain who reached America long before Columbus!
Then its the tale of Harald 'hard as nails' Hardrada! Ace bodyguard to several dead Emperors and 'almost' King of large areas of Northern Europe!
Then let Odin the Allfather close out with a journey through the nine realms of Viking myth. Giant high jinx, annoying talking squirrels and huge world trees prove that Viking legends are all fun and games...
Until someone loses an eye...
It’s Homespun and Wholesome! Just like when we were allowed to do this sort of thing live.
