  • 488 - The Tichborne Case
    Feb 26 2025

    In the mid 1800's, a young heir tragically disappeared at sea. But then, miraculously, he turned up in regional Australia! (But he no longer had a French accent... or spoke any French... and he looked a bit different)


    This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 07.29 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).
