About this episode

The episode discusses the urban legend of the Gorbals Vampire amidst humorous commentary from the hosts.

A group of friends attempt to navigate the irradiated wastelands and dung-hills of ignorance that is the Post-Truth Apocalypse. A smorgasbord of colourful language, drunken ramblings and the occasional "fact". Fact. Hosted by Ben, Gaz, Clair, Pete, and Mike. This week the boys discuss the urban legend of the Gorbals Vampire, a 7 foot tall iron-toothed creature that allegedly kidnapped and killed two boys in Glasgow in 1954.
