Summary

This is a special episode - it was recorded live in London in November 2024, in front of our largest audience EVER. The crowd were red hot, and we told the story of a kooky character who went on quite the adventure and made a lot of money, all in the pursuit of Pez.

This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 06:33 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).

Do Go On acknowledges the traditional owners of the land we record on, the Wurundjeri people, in the Kulin nation. We pay our respects to elders, past and present.
