In episode 72 of the Wonder World podcast, Pam and Olivia guide us through the fun and quirky celebrations for the third week of August, including National Bacon Lovers Day and National Tooth Fairy Day. They share fascinating historical tidbits, such as the theft of the Mona Lisa and the first sighting of the Loch Ness Monster, and introduce the word of the week, "jolt."

The episode also features a trivia question about William Wilberforce, some listener-submitted jokes, and a reading of the poem "An August Midnight" by Thomas Hardy. Tune in for an enjoyable mix of history, humor, and learning!
