Do Go On

This week the topic is Bond (James Bond)! Matt talks us through the history of Bond, from the novels to the films... It's a bloody big topic, but Matt did his best (and it turns out that Jess and Dave are big Bond fans!)  Twitter: @DoGoOnPodInstagram: @DoGoOnPodFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DoGoOnPod/Email us: dogoonpod@gmail.com Support the show and get rewards like bonus episodes:www.patreon.com/DoGoOnPod    See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Dave reports on the many marriages of King Henry VIII, a man so determined to have a son that he literally changes his whole country's religion to allow him to remarry. Some wives will be divorced and shunned; others will not be as lucky and lose their heads. So does he ever get a son? And if not, it's not like his daughters could ever become Queen... or could they? Twitter: @DoGoOnPodInstagram: @DoGoOnPodFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DoGoOnPod/Email us: dogoonpod@gmail.comSupport the show and get rewards like bonus episodes:www.patreon.com/DoGoOnPod   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Another year, another Christmas episode! This year Jess talks about the mysterious legend that is ....Krampus! Our little Australian brains knew nothing about this.

This is one of the stranger chapters in Australia's military history. Matt talks about the time the army took on the second tallest bird in the world, the emu. 20,000 of them. It was quite a fight... but who wins? Twitter: @DoGoOnPodInstagram: @DoGoOnPodFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DoGoOnPod/Email us: dogoonpod@gmail.comSupport the show and get rewards like bonus episodes:www.patreon.com/DoGoOnPod   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

William Shakespeare - sure we're taught that he wrote some famous plays and poetry, but did he really write them? Do we know what he looked like, and how many words did he create out of thin air (thin air is one of the phrases he coined)? Dave will try and answer these questions, Jess's cough has now become a husky laugh and Matt will do some accents - some he has control of, others not so much. Twitter: @DoGoOnPodInstagram: @DoGoOnPodFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DoGoOnPod/Email us: dogoonpod@gmail.comSupport the show and get rewards like bonus episodes:www.patreon.com/DoGoOnPod   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

This week a very sick Jess talks about the fascinating crime syndicate knowns as The Pink Panthers! There's poo talk, phlegm puns and a lot of Jess coughing (sorry).

Dave has been put on a one week ban, so we brought in our good buddy, Aunty Donna's Broden Kelly! Bro is a bit of plane nerd so he came in to chat to Matt and Jess about Planes (and the story of flight 32 sometimes referred to as Titanic in the Sky...) to be honest we got very distracted and talked about planes for about 10 minutes and talk shit for the rest of the time. It's very loose and very fun!Twitter: @DoGoOnPodInstagram: @DoGoOnPodFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DoGoOnPod/Email us: dogoonpod@gmail.comSupport the show and get rewards like bonus episodes:www.patreon.com/DoGoOnPod   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

This week Jess shares a secret love she has had for 20 years - Riverdance. Baring a part of her soul, she tells the story of the origin of Riverdance and how it changed dance FOREVER.

In downtown Montreal an English diplomat is getting dressed when a group of men with guns storm into his room and force him into a taxi.
