Huge bummers all round this week lads, sorry. Els tells us about the sad, untimely deaths of Oscar Wilde's half sisters. Sarah recounts the tale of the first man who was killed by a baseball (thank god for helmets these days) and Clare talks us through the, quite frankly, fascinating story of Bushman's Cave. Brace yourselves. Contains swearing and female voices.
Intential theme week is here! We bring you stories about celebrities who have weirdly met their maker (or almost). Daly starts with the infamously sad tale of Brandon Lee on the deadly set of The Crow. Els tells you all the freaky things that happened during the filming of The Omen. And Sarah recalls the story of British heartthrob Paul Nicholls (Eastenders fame) and his interesting trip to Thailand. As always, contains swearing and female voices....
This week Sarah tells us the story of Zachary Taylor who was President of the United States for just over a year before an untimely and unusual death. Clare covers poor old Franz Reichelt who should've stuck to mannequins, and Els has her debut near miss HOT OFF THE PRESS from 14th May 2018! Contains the usual swears and waffling. Enjoy!
Els tells us about why you should always exercise caution when playing arcade games, Sarah talks us through the mystery of all the washed up feet in Canada and Claire asks the question 'How many ways could a cow kill you?'. A warning to squeamish listeners, this episode contains some fairly graphic eye talk. And, as ever, slightly too much swearing.
A new week and a new episode of What A Way To Go. This week we have a story about a carry-on you definitely don't want to see on a plane, the mystery of what happened to Jim Thompson and the heist by cool-as-fuck DB Cooper. We also spend a lot of time talking about starting our own cult. If you're interested in joining us, feel free to join the waiting list. As always, definitely NSFW.
Two of the unusual deaths this week are nautical themed - lifejackets will NOT be provided. Sarah tells us about "the worst shark attack in history" on the USS Indianapolis while Eleanor describes just how badly a celebration at sea went for John Kendrick. Clare takes us back to dry land in between by recounting the story of poor Vladimir Likhonos whose love of chemistry ultimately led to his demise. Contains swearing and strong animosity towards dolphins.
It's a double near miss this week! Listen to discover what happened (or may have not happened) to a group of Russian hikers, how an innocent fishing trip can quickly turn lethal, and why you should be wary of a seemingly innocuous ladybird.
Clare, Eleanor and Sarah bring you some weird and unusual stories in episode 4 (it is episode 4 right guys?) A self-proclaimed bummer from Clare talking about the Lake Nyos disaster. Els tells you about Clement, a lawyer who went above and beyond to prove his client's innocence. And Sarah's story is about the beautiful but ultimately deadly Balloonfest '86. As always, contains swearing. Follow us on Instagram & Twitter @whatawaypod and tell us what you think of Episode 4!...
