Description

Yes you read that right. It's a wild story from the latest series of No One Saw it Coming, a show about people, objects, and accidents that changed the course of history. Today, Marc Fennell joins Matt Bevan to chat about this unlikely alliance. Set during WWII, it’s a story about boats bursting into flame, mobsters with marvellous names, and the curious team-ups that come about in a country at war.

I love if you're listening normally (and both Matt and marks work normally) but this episode was a total dud. It felt like a longer version of the first couple of minutes of a podcast where they tell you about the story that is to come but the actual story with the actual details never really came.
