On the 25th of December, 2016, the world woke up to Christmas presents under the tree, Elf on the Shelf and the news that music icon George Michael had died. So this week, Michelle lovingly pays tribute to the life and musical legacy of George Michael – brilliant singer, beautiful soul and the guy with the best blow dry in the business. In this Gawn Too Soon episode, Michelle goes back to when George first met Andrew Ridgely, the Wham! days, the Faith period, his DUIs and misdemeanours, getting outed, his philanthropy and his untimely death at just 53 years of age.

So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus chit-chat about the dog-walking WhatsApp, Geordie’s new pet, the Boxing Day tsunami and more, only on Eavesdroppin’ podcast. And remember, wherever you are, whatever you do, just keepEavesdroppin’!

The post 52: LAST CHRISTMAS: The life and death of the King of Christmas: George Michael appeared first on Eavesdroppin' Podcast.

Have you heard of the Magnificent Seven? Not the Western, but London’s magnificent seven private cemeteries with hauntings galore! In honour of Halloween, Geordie recounts some cemetery folklore, starting with the story of L. a wealthy publisher from the early 1930s who had a ghostly encounter at Kensal Green Cemetery with an old flame… She then investigates the Highgate Vampire, some scary black magic encounters, dark figures, stakes through bodies and more!

Michelle then follows with one of the most hauntingly tragic deaths of the 1990s – River Phoenix. On October 30, 1993, Hollywood actor River Phoenix had come off a day of shooting and was hyped to go Johnny Depp’s LA club, The Viper Room, to jam with his mates, including Flea from the Red Hot Chilli Peppers. But things didn’t work out as planned and instead of playing on stage with friends on Halloween, River ended up dying on the pavement outside the club from a deadly speedball. What happened that night? Who gave him the speedball? RIP River.

So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus chit-chat aboutCouples Therapy, Dan the Post, telly recs and more, only on Eavesdroppin’ podcast. And remember, wherever you are, whatever you do, just keepEavesdroppin’!

The post 44: HALLOWEEN: The death of River Phoenix, plus ghost stories from London’s cemeteries appeared first on Eavesdroppin' Podcast.

Dying on stage is more common than you think… This week, Geordie digs deep to find performers who died on stage doing what they loved. What happened to Brazilian singer Ayres Sasaki? What’s the story behind Malaysian singer Irma Bule and a snake on stage? And how did Keith Richards almost die onstage? Listen now to find out!

Michelle then looks at the tragic life and death of British singer Amy Winehouse. When Amy released her debut album Frank in 2003, no one could have predicted the rollercoaster that would follow: drink, drugs, a dodgy boyfriend and complacent parents, grammy wins, a crack habit, bulimia and a number-one selling album. Documented in cruel and demeaning ways by a brutal paparazzi, Amy’s life was all ups and downs until her untimely death in 2011. What happened? How did it all go so wrong? Listen now for why we think Amy’s Gawn Too Soon…

The post 46: TIME WARP: Ideas about ideas, Hilma af Klint, time slips and more! appeared first on Eavesdroppin' Podcast.

Who is Marion Barter? In 1997 in Queensland, Australian, 51 year old Marion quit her job, sold her house and took off to Europe for the holiday of a lifetime. Thing is, she’s never been seen since… This week, we discuss the events leading up to her disappearance and it’s a twisty, turny ride that covers creeps, catfishing and the cleaning out of bank accounts. It’s a real whodunnit… with a court finding at the end of it that was down to the power of a podcast, The Lady Vanishes…

We hope you enjoy this week’s episode and remember, wherever you are, whatever you do, just keep Eavesdroppin’!

The post 2: WHERE IS MARION BARTER? This bizarre missing-persons case will leave you baffled! appeared first on Eavesdroppin' Podcast.

We’ve been accused of being a little dark in recent episodes, especially as we’re meant to be a comedy-chat podcast, so we’ve added a little mystical sunshine to the episode! In this week’s summer pot luck, we address questions, pseudo questions, posits and posers from loyal Eavesdroppers and chat about the BIG QUESTIONS like…

Is Al Teggart real? Can larvae sense when you’re about to squish them? Are aliens birds? Can you drown an ant? Is Michelle an ant-killing psychopath?

We also ask questions like… Do alien lifeforms have more than 5 senses? Are governments hiding information about aliens? Are there portals and other dimensions that alien lifeforms can travel through? Are shooting stars alien ships going into lightspeed? Can you have Botox and still be a good feminist? Why is having facial tweakments and being a feminist such a layered bombshell? Who is Caitlin Moran? What is the correct name for the jawbone? Who is Elizabeth Reid? Are aliens just billionaires from another planet? Do aliens go anal probing for fun? Is Skinwalker Ranch a portal for aliens? What’s happened to Hazel The Psychic Real Estate Agent?? What is ding dong all about in Eurovision?

It’s jam-packed full of rambling feather-brained chat… Hear Michelle call the ex-Governor General of Australia Sir John Kerr ‘Jim’ Kerr (#SimpleMinds anyone??)! Hear Geordie utter the words ‘Kasabi Testicles’! Hear Michelle throw shade on the moon landing! Hear Geordie say ‘dobbed on’ (look it up if you don’t know what it means hahaha)! Hear Michelle ponder whether or not Boris really had Covid! Hear Geordie call Richard Branson ‘Dickie B’! Hear Michelle say Chocolate Canal! And more… all on this week’s episode of Eavesdroppin’!

Stay beautiful and keep Eavesdroppin’! (Thanks Louise!)
