Back when we were allowed to go into bars, there was SuperPod 2020; a two day podcast festival in Southampton. Ministry of Swooping opened the whole weekend as Al was joined by Doctor Squee for a special Sporting Myth's episode, in aid of Sport Relief.

So listen in to find out the truth about the phrase "Last guys finish last", the football chant "Who ate all the pies?" and more. Plus a sporting version of the fact check quiz.

As well as this there's also a special update about the future of the podcast and what to expect in the coming weeks.

AKA: What is Batman's guilty pleasure? Shitting out a perfect Cumberland sausage.

This week Al is joined by comedian and podcaster Tiernan Douieb. The pair discuss the possibility of food being cheaper post-brexit (which turns into a discussion about battery bees), the story of Irene Sendler and how she lost a Nobel Peace Prize to Al Gore's "slide show on global warming", Extinction Rebellion's Diesel generator, making as much money as Jeff Bezos, Supreme Court judges EU stipends and the size of the Super Mario Bros cartridge.

Plus Tiernan takes on the Fact Check Quiz and tells Al about how he almost fell asleep at a gig.

So it's #InternationalPodcastDay and we're doing something a bit different. Instead of the usual fake news and meme debunking Al's here flying solo doing a special episode looking at seven common misconceptions.

So prepare to be schooled on Daddy Longlegs, George Washington's teeth, Sleepwalking, Napoleon, Twinkies, Duck Quacks and the origins of the word Fuck!

Tune in next week for a much better episode. For now, courage.
