372 - The Pont-Saint-Esprit mass poisoning Dec 07, 2022

In 1951, hundreds of residents of the small French town of Pont-Saint-Esprit were struck down by a mystery illness that caused mass hallucinations.

What had caused this mass event? Was it as something as innocent as bad food, or was there something much more sinister afoot?

308 - The Disappearance of 'The Canoe Man' Sep 15, 2021

In March 2002, prison guard John Darwin was seen paddling out to sea in his kayak, but was not seen returning. A massive search was undertaken but he was not found and Darwin was presumed dead. That was until five years later when he walked into a London police station claiming to have amnesia. So where the hell had he been?

305 - Sea-Monkeys Aug 25, 2021

Promoted as "the real live fun pets you grow yourself" Sea-Monkeys took the world by storm in the 1960s. Essentially brine shrimp delivered by mail after being advertised in comic books, it was marketing genius. Generation after generation were captivated by the idea of the little creatures but then in the late 1980s creator Harold von Braunhut's extremely controversial views came to light. Throw in X-Ray specs and a lawsuit over the Sea-Monkey fortune and you've got a wild story.

238 - A Tale Of Two Dream Teams May 13, 2020

At the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, the only team anyone could talk about was the US men's basketball team, AKA 'The Dream Team'. It was the first time NBA players were allowed to compete at the Games and they were expected to dominate the tournament. At the same Olympics, Lithuania was competing for the first time since 1928, less than 18 months after declaring independence from the USSR. They had a lot of talent on their basketball team, but the country had no money to send their players. A story of revolution, a rock n' roll band and a whole load of tie dye. This is A Tale Of Two Dream Teams.

In 1952, East Germany was closed off from it's Western counterpart. Between the countries lay walls, barbed wire, minefields and lots and lots of soldiers.

In the late 70s two men got together and came up with a plan... to build a home made hot air balloon and fly their families over the border to a better life. This is one of the most audacious escapes ever attempted!

This week's episode of Do Go On was recorded live on a beach at the Koh Samui International Podcast Festival. We each did a mini report on a "dumb death" - that is dumbs ways in which people have died. The topics were Bobby Leach, the first person to go over Niagara Falls in a barrel, the horse loving "Mr. Hands" and badass lawyer Clement Vallandigham. One of the three stories is a bit full on, but very very funny.

We were also joined on stage by two of our funniest friends Nick Capper from The Phone Hacks podcast and the best in showbiz, Oliver Clark.

173 - The Baroness Of Floreana Island Feb 13, 2019

In the 1930s German lovers Friedrich Ritter and Dore Stauch moved to the remote and uninhabited Floreana Island, hoping to leave society behind forever. All was going well but then another family arrived, hoping to share their island paradise and tensions flared. The final straw came when a mysterious woman claiming to be a baroness also turned up and claimed that she was going to build a hotel on the island. With the three parties all hating each other, it was only a matter of time before they clashed in a major way...

NOTE: The Baroness of Floreana Island AKA The Galapagos Affair, is in some ways a sequel to Dave's previous report, episode 170 about The Essex. So check that out if you're keen.

170 - The Essex And The Real Life Moby Dick Jan 23, 2019

In 1852, Herman Melville published what would much later become his most famous work... Moby Dick, or The Whale. He based this work upon a real life horror story that he'd read about. Twenty years earlier, a whaling ship called The Essex had been attacked and sunk by a giant sperm whale. Alone and literally in the middle of the ocean many thousands of miles from civilisation, the crew had to do some questionable things just to stay alive. This week's episode is all about their epic quest for survival.

In France in the 18th Century there was a man known as Tarrare… and boy could he eat. By the age of seventeen he could eat his own weight in beef. An insatiable hunger led him to become a travelling performer, eating everything from snakes to stones to golden forks. A very funny but sometimes gross story, probably don’t listen to this one whilst eating.
