The Simpsons are going to (have just been to) Japan!

YES you can! SI se puede! Say YES to adventures. Say YES to life. Say YES to your boss (however dumb and awful their suggestion!).

Roll-up, roll-up for the biggest tent of all! We’re launching into 2025 with a very special guest, Imogen West-Knights, and an absolutely vast cursed object, containing lots of smaller ones.

It's a Spooky Christmas special!

Back by popular demand, it's our annual Christmas party! And this year we’re wrestling with TRADITION.

From Patreon to main feed: Welcome all free-born Englishmen, sovereign citizens, rebel barons and new patrons!

This week, it's a deep dive into a steaming mug of cawfee. Hot java. A cup of Joe. Black gold.

As a Cursed Objects bonus, without an actual cursed object, we present a live recording of Dan in conversation about his brand new book Multitudes: How Crowds Made the Modern World.

Air isn't an object, right? Wrong.

Is there actually any moral value to hard work?

If smart, humane, pro-migration Ed Miliband really hated Labour’s infamous ‘Controls On Immigration’ coffee mug – both of his parents were Jews who escaped the Nazis and found refuge in Britain – then why did he let it happen on his watch?

How do you start collecting objects for a cursed museum?

Troubling war merch, Van Gogh bucket hats, Soviet space dogs and the scourge of ‘world’ history - Kasia and Dan stage their first-ever live show to celebrate 100,000 downloads!

A record etched onto an x-ray of a (probably, now) dead Soviet citizen’s head. That is the uniquely cursed object Stephen Coates came across in a Russian flea market in 2014.

Oh god, not another one! When BREAKING NEWS bursts through the wall, we spring, gently and apologetically, into action, with a (cough) emergency p for the snappy g.

What if there was an object so cursed that it was never even made?

Were you into Cursed Objects before it was cool?

The police just follow the law, right!? Our guest Melayna Lamb thinks we need to flip this thinking around - and see the police as a law unto themselves.
