Javier Leiva - host of the PRETEND podcast joins us to help us set the record straight on an episode of Tall Boy Radio. Javier reached out to us after he listened to episode 271 in which we were joined by LaDonna Humphrey to talk about "all the lost girls" and the Melissa Witt case that she has been championing for many years. There's nothing too controversial about that episode but our guest that episode is another matter altogether. After hearing from Javier and a number of others, we felt compelled to add a little context to that episode. Our guest, LaDonna was the feature of series 18 of the PRETEND pocast and I was surprised by what I heard. We give you the overview here but to hear the whole back story you'll need to head to Javier's series - link below https://open.spotify.com/show/2vaCjR7UvlN9aTIzW6kNCo?si=a6dc452c9aa5491b What lessons can TBR take away from this? Does it make that episode any less valid? No - what we talked about is really really important bur we're not giving you the full story if you don't understand who shared the story. This is a lesson about asking the question and questioning the source and that's important for all of us.

Alright, buckle up for a particularly peculiar episode of the Tall Boy Radio Podcast! Beans and Gaz are once again venturing into the realm of the uncanny, this time joined by the fascinating Mitch Cheetham. Mitch isn't just sharing her home with her husband and son; for a significant period, their household also included a rather… enthusiastic poltergeist. But this wasn't your run-of-the-mill spooky spectre; this one had a rather specific, and somewhat charming, obsession: the letter 'M'. Mitch begins by painting a picture of their everyday family life, a backdrop against which the subtle, then increasingly noticeable, phenomena began to unfold. It started with the usual unexplained occurrences – misplaced items, odd sounds – but soon developed a distinct pattern. The letter M became important. Beans, predictably thrilled by this unique detail, dives deep into the 'M' fixation. Was there a particular significance to the letter? Was there a past resident who's name began with 'M'? Gaz, ever the pragmatist, explores alternative explanations. Could there be drafts selectively affecting 'M'-related items? Could a mischievous pet be the culprit? Mitch patiently debunks these theories, recounting instances where heavy objects moved in sealed rooms. The conversation then shifts to the playful nature of their spectral roommate. Mitch shares anecdotes of the poltergeist’s more helpful interventions. These instances fostered a strange sense of co-existence, a feeling that this unseen presence was, for the most part, benevolent. However, Mitch is quick to point out that their friendly poltergeist wasn't entirely without its mischievous side, especially where their feline companion was concerned. The cat, it seemed, was a particular target for gentle (and sometimes not-so-gentle) pranks. These incidents, while sometimes startling, were more comical than threatening, adding a unique dynamic to their unusual household. Beans is fascinated by the apparent personality of this 'M'-obsessed entity. Could this focused interest indicate a specific type of residual energy or perhaps even a more communicative spirit? Mitch shares her own evolving theories, admitting that living with a poltergeist, even a friendly one, forces you to reconsider your understanding of the world around you. Gaz, while still cautiously analytical, can't deny the compelling nature of Mitch's experiences. The specificity of the 'M' fixation adds a layer of detail that's hard to dismiss as mere coincidence. He probes about any particularly frightening moments, and Mitch recounts a few instances where the playful activity took a slightly more startling turn – a sudden slamming of a door, a fleeting cold spot accompanied by the distinct feeling of someone breathing nearby, always, of course, involving something with an 'M'. As the episode draws to a close, Beans and Gaz explore the lingering questions. Why the letter 'M'? What was the ultimate nature of this playful presence? Has the 'M'-loving poltergeist moved on? Mitch shares the current state of affairs, leaving the Tall Boy Radio listeners with a captivating tale of the uncanny, a reminder that sometimes, the most extraordinary stories unfold in the most ordinary of homes, with a peculiar penchant for a particular letter of the alphabet. Get ready to have your perceptions challenged and maybe even check if your own 'mat' has been moved slightly… just in case! tallboyradio.com…

In a change to the scheduled episode, Beans and Gaz take a look at what 2025 has in store for the TBR listener. Following on from Trump's inauguration we ponder what this could mean for the future of the World's biggest super power and it's 51st state, the UK. The Presidential Pardon is on our radar, not just Trump's pardons for those involved in the "insurrection" but the concept of a pre-emptive pardon! "Roll up folks, get your pre-emptive pardon, nothing says your guilty like a pre-emptive pardon!". Will Trump release the JFK files - and what about Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King jnr.? ...and will we believe what is released. With the help of Beau, we dispel a few myths about Lee Harvey Oswald. What will happen with the space race and is how it is progressing fuelling the conspiracy theory that we never went to the moon? It's a bit conspiracy theory heavy, this ep! We also share out what you can listen to on TBR!

We went live on the night of the US election and shared our view from across the pond of candidates Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. We had a great deal of audience participation - folks from the States who were keen to agree or disagree with our assessments of what we were seeing ~ and we really enjoyed all the input that we received. The result may now be known and not everyone at TBR predicted it but if you're in the States maybe you'll enjoy our take on things... or maybe you won't. Special thanks to Steve Cartlidge, Cyril Embel and Big Tiddy Tidwell for the input. It's great that we can all have different views and still be friends. We hope not just to see America made Great again... but we'd liked to see the emphasis on United in the United States of America.
