510 - The Pez Bandit

This is a special episode - it was recorded live in London in November 2024, in front of our largest audience EVER. The crowd were red hot, and we told the story of a kooky character who went on quite the adventure and made a lot of money, all in the pursuit of Pez.

This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 06:33 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).
