    Aug 23 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    This is the first of a series of podcasts regarding some incidents in the UK (London) that took place 100 years ago and caused a 'moral panic'. This first podcast tells of how drugs, (class A drugs as we understand them today) were introduced into the UK, at first accepted but then rejected after misuse. The second podcast will be about what was known as 'White Slavery' 100 years ago but as we better understand as human trafficking. Then I will broadcast some podcasts based on these podcasts and police reports of the time. Incidents that are mainly forgotten today. I will post the next pod shortly.
    This podcast has not been edited in anyway, and has been recorded in one take. I apologise in advance for any mispronounceations.

A revelatory account of one of the great mysteries of the 60s, leaving no stone unturned.
