Welcome! Welcome, one and all. We’re getting into the festive spirit here at TGWU HQ, but only for that to be ruined as Iain tells us the unsettling story of house fires and disappearing children. This is your warning; it is NOT a happy ending. But is it paranormal? Jordan says no, Iain says yes! (Because everything is paranormal to Iain) And then Jordan cheers us all up by telling us some real news headlines from around the world that just make you go…huh? The kind that doesn’t seem like news; the stories that are obviously filler when nothing else was happening in the world. And it just so happens that those kind of headlines are bats**t crazy! So cuddle up with a festive Bailey’s hot chocolate, and let’s get festive, sad and then happy - in that order!Support us Two Guys on Patreon for all your bonus content and merch All the linktree links for all your TGWU needs Music: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.

Welcome back to Episode 1 of a brand new hundred! To kick off this new centennial, Iain tells us the creepy story of two men’s abduction story while out on a scenic camping trip. But this case is a little more believable as it has EVIDENCE!And then Jordan brings back a segment that our Patreon Bonus content listeners will be familiar with - The Dull Men’s Club, Facebook Group! Jordan shares some of the more interesting posts from the group and, let me tell ya, the stories are anything but dull. You’ll laugh, you’ll learn, you’ll cry! Maybe they should change their name to “Not So Dull”. Support us Two Guys on Patreon for all your bonus content and merch All the linktree links for all your TGWU needsMusic: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.

If you hate talk of travelling, gigs and what we do or don’t eat in the morning; then you’re in luck because we only talk about that for about the first 10 minutes! But after that - it’s the good stuff. Iain kicks off with the true creepy mystery that swept the UK in the 80’s and 90’s: phantom social workers. Those odd individuals who’d show up at your door unannounced, claiming to be official; telling you they are here to take your children - but disappear without a trace. Surely one to keep you up at night. And then in light of us celebrating a whole 99 episodes! Jordan gives us one new law that was created in every year from ‘99 right up until present day! So if my math is correct *checks on fingers and foot fingers* - that’s 25 new stupid laws (plus one bonus one) that Jordan shares to boggle your mind. Let us know what you think is the daftest law brought into creation.  Support us Two Guys on Patreon for all your bonus content and merch All the linktree links for all your TGWU needs Music: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.

Some prophecies are bunkum! How do we know? Well, the prophesied things never came to fruition! But what if a prophecy came from a hen? And I can promise you it’s not what you think. Today Iain covers the story of the Yorkshire Witch in a tale so wicked, you’ll have your wallets stolen. And how many times have you thought “I need some money, I could go on a gameshow!” Well, THINK AGAIN! Because today Jordan tells us how it’s ain’t all peaches and cream, as he describes some gameshows that have unfortunately seen the light of day when perhaps they shouldn’t have. From hungry lizards to holidaying in a sock, today we really have got it all covered.

Are you thinking about moving home? Or are you getting married? Well, take today’s episode as FAIR WARNING! As we discussed every and all possibilities that could go wrong with both! Iain tells us of the Smurl family and their battle with ghosts in the house they bought to make their family home. Truly shocking paranormal events, far worse than anything you’ve ever heard before! (As told by Iain)And if you might think you’re safe on your wedding day; your own special day - you’d be wrong! So listen up and take notes as Jordan tells us some of the weirdest things that has gone on at weddings. Dads trying to steal brides? Best men trying to steal money? DEATH!? We’ve got it all today! So strap in, pay your stamp duty, and let’s toast!

This week Iain talks us through a mystery that sees an entire family dead. Who did it? Why did it happen? No one truly knows, but the strangest part is the circumstances that surround it; so get your Cluedo cap on and see if you can work it out! ‘Cos we sure can’t.And then Jordan tells us some of the weirdest medical conditions that can plague us humans. From the weird to the incredibly uncomfortable, we’re sure you wouldn’t want to experience any of these. And we sure hope you don’t.  Support us Two Guys on Patreon for all your bonus content and merch All the linktree links for all your TGWU needs Music: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.

The world is filled with mysteries, as we’ve come to find out. But what if one of these mysteries isn’t some cryptid, isn’t an alien or some creepy spirit, but actually something that exists is every single situation we encounter daily. Shadows! Sentient shadows! Today Iain tells us about the spooky (supposed) reality that is shadow people! What they are, what they do, and what to do if you see one! It’s all covered in today’s episode.And then Jordan takes a long hard look at the English language. This linguist wannabe looks at the sayings that we’ve all come to love and shows us just how wrong we are. He even gives us extended and long forgotten versions of popular sayings that might even change the meaning of what we’ve come to know them as today! Did you know any of these extended phrases?
