    This season, Matt and Gianluca have pitted themselves against the floppy haired AI Neil Oliver-bot to determine who will come out with a more accurate and entertaining season of podcasting on Loch Lomond's history. Who will come out on top? Will a chance to narrate a pleasure cruise around the Loch fall to the good guys or the bad robot? What did Matt find at work last Monday morning which might leave him emotionally scarred for some time to come. Find out all this and more on this regular season wrap-up!

  • Ep. 2.10 - Romans in Loch Lomond
    Sep 23 2024

    Were the Romans safties? Matt and Gianluca ponder this and other big questions as they track down an ancient stone in Old Kilpatrick, physically and anecdotally tracing the extent of the Romans' reach in Loch Lomondside and Scotland more widely. The Romans used their short swords and uniform law to cleave down multiple enemies and command various corners of Eurasia. In this podcast episode, Matt and Gianluca use silly sound effects and erratic yet surprisingly historically respectful metaphors to mow down the barriers of reality and transport you, the listener, to the turn of the first millenium and into the shoes of a powerful yet cold, damp and confused African general. Sound good? Get listening!
