Yet another Friday Festival of Facts with Gill and Pete.

This week they look at how random members of the public treat a performance artist, how the justice system worked or indeed did not work in medieval times and Pete tells us of the popular sport known as "Extreme Ironing".

Gill tells us of 4 incredible women from history including Maria Teresa de Filippis, Caresse Crosby, Amelia Earhart and Eleanor Roosevelt.

During the chat there are also deep debates regarding topless men in the sunshine, wearing flip flops away from the beach and what you could do while you wait for a warm dessert to go cold...
