Welcome back to Bloomin’ Legends!

The Extra Legendary Bit is the bonus episode where Johnny Vaughan and Gavin “The Woodman” Woods leave the history books behind and dive into the gloriously unhinged stories sent in by you, the listeners.

In this week’s bonus episode, the lads hear about a deeply alarming encounter with a stripper in Benidorm wielding a baseball bat, a funeral hearse disastrously parked outside a wedding venue, and a woman who somehow won a half marathon after coming out of a toilet the wrong way.

• Benidorm Bat Trouble – One listener comes face to face with a stripper in Benidorm… who is holding a baseball bat. Holiday memories don’t get much more terrifying than that.
• The Wedding Hearse Horror – A man accidentally parks a funeral hearse outside a wedding venue, creating exactly the wrong sort of first impression.
• The Toilet Detour Champion – One woman takes a wrong turn coming out of a toilet during a half marathon… and somehow ends up winning the whole thing.

Welcome back to Bloomin’ Legends! The podcast where Johnny Vaughan and Gavin “The Woodman” Woods uncover the wildest stories in history, and meet the extraordinary people who changed the world forever.

In this episode, the lads take on perhaps the most famous genius of them all: Albert Einstein, the theoretical physicist who transformed our understanding of time, space, gravity and reality itself.

• From School Struggles to Scientific Stardom – Einstein didn’t fit the mould at school, struggled to find work, and began his career in a patent office before changing physics forever.
• The Miracle Year – Johnny and Gav dive into the astonishing run of ideas that made 1905 one of the most important years in scientific history.
• Relativity, Explained Properly – Including Einstein’s brilliantly simple way of describing relativity: one hot stove, one pretty girl, and a theory that changed the world.
• The Man Behind the Genius – From his eccentric habits and global fame to the bizarre story of what happened to his brain after he died.

Welcome back to Bloomin’ Legends!

The Extra Legendary Bit is the bonus episode where Johnny Vaughan and Gavin “The Woodman” Woods leave the history books behind and rummage through the listener inbox for stories that are brave, bizarre and occasionally far too revealing.

In this week’s bonus episode, the lads put out a call for your tales of running away from home, and also hear one unforgettable story involving a teenager, the family computer, and the worst possible person walking in at the worst possible moment.

• Runaway Legends Wanted – Johnny and Gav ask listeners to send in their stories of running away from home, whether heroic, hopeless or over before teatime.
• Caught Red-Handed – One listener shares the painfully compromising tale of a teenager discovered with his trousers round his ankles in front of the family computer… by his female cousin.
• Listener Legends – Yet more proof that your real-life stories are every bit as chaotic as anything the lads could dream up.
