About this listen
Tommy, Duncan & Hayley are back with another ramble through the past—this time dipping into the world of cash & carry warehouses, CB radios, novelty songs, and everything in between. From blagging their way into wholesale stores in the ’80s to the golden age of bulk loo roll, the team take a nostalgic wander through everyday adventures that somehow feel epic.
Along the way, they swap stories of wartime bunkers turned tourist attractions, the strange fame of Roland Rat, saucy seaside postcards, and why Captain Beaky will forever live rent-free in their heads.
Add in a detour through Orwell’s 1984, the lost art of sending postcards, and the glory days of CB radio handles, and you’ve got an episode that’s as random as it is hilarious.
Listen for:
Tales of sneaking into cash & carry warehouses as “shopkeepers”
Rats in pop culture—from Orwell to Michael Jackson to Roland Rat
Seaside nostalgia: Blackpool rock, postcards, and Butlins legends
The novelty hits and children’s TV icons that defined a generation
CB radio culture: handles, “eyeballs,” and the loneliness of late-night chatter
