Cheeky Tales

Whenever you think of pirate, you probably think of a whole lot of stereotypes. Long, dirty hair. An eye patch. A big tri-point hat, maybe even with a skull and crossbones. Maybe even some really fetching frilly sleeves. A peg leg. A parrot on the shoulder. But I'll bet there is one thing you didn't picture - a woman pirate. This week Aaron will take us through the tale of 3 pioneering, buccaneering, pilfering women.

Some people love Coca-Cola, some love Pepsi. And then there is that one guy who's like, "um, actually Dr Pepper is the best soft drink." This story is for that guy, who in this case, is Sean. Join us this week as Sean takes Aaron and John through the tale of the little soda that could, from humble beginnings in Waco, Texas, to the big city dreams of Leichardt, in Queensland, Australia. It's got everything from court room drama to international intrigue (just what IS a pepper drink?). So listen up, crack open a can of Dr Pepper, and learn a little something.

Sorry about the slightly dodgy audio!

It's hard to imagine the beer and whiskey loving USA giving it up, but that's exactly what they did in the early 1900's. Listen this week as Aaron takes John and Producer Sean through the sordid tale of dry mouths, rum running, organised crime, and good old fashioned hypocrisy.

Hopefully this is a better intro than the one Aaron managed to do in this episode. Gregor MacGregor is the second in our accidental series of con-men, and this time it's a man that had some genuine usefulness about him. That is, until he threw it all away for sun and booze. Listen this week as Aaron takes John and producer Sean through this tale of the true greatest con-man! (Suck it, John!)Now on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@CheekyTalesPod
