STRANGER THINGS: The cult of Damanhur, plus body snatchers!

Eavesdroppin'

On Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast this week, Geordie & Michelle look at cults and creepiness…

Hidden away in the Italian Alps is an underground temple touted as the 8th wonder of the world. Thing is – it was built by a cult called The Federation of Damanhur and if you visit it, they’ll want to convert you. But… Damanhurians say they can time travel! They say they can talk to aliens! They say they can make plants sing! And that they’re an ‘ethical cult’. Geordie investigates… Listen now to find out more.

Did you know that body snatching is big business? But not all body snatchers steal corpses for money… In Pakistan, Michelle looks at the story of two cannibal brothers who… well, you can guess the rest. She also looks at the time the corpse of Charlie Chaplin was stolen from his grave in Vevey before discussing the dentist-cum-body-snatching-entrepreneur, Michael Mastromarino. His body-snatching ring saw hundreds of bones, hearts, veins, bits of tissue and skin being stolen for cash – including those of veteran broadcaster Alistair Cooke. Listen now to hear more!

So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus chit-chat about Carole Bayer Sager, biologics-slash-biopharmaceuticals and more, only on Eavesdroppin’ podcast. And remember, wherever you are, whatever you do, just keep Eavesdroppin’!
