Hey, are we a true crime podcast now? Liam & Ben share stories of weird criminal activity, crimes that went wrong, and crimes that were doomed from the start.
Embedded above we have the podcast version, and below we have the original, unedited video version, which is longer and, arguably, more visually compelling. You can subscribe to Conversation Hat on YouTube - hitting the bell icon to get notifications whenever we go live; or you can follow us on Twitch.
SHOW NOTES
Here’s some extra info on the crimes, in order of appearance.

You can get more info about The Great Train Robbery on Wikipedia;

Lastly, the tale of The Porn Inspector is from The Smoking Gun.
HOW TO SUPPORT THE SHOW
Our plan is that this show will always be available for free but that doesn’t mean it’s free to make. Fans can keep the show running via our Patreon. We ask listeners to consider how much they pay for services like Netflix, Amazon Prime, etc, and apply the same logic to our show - do you feel our show is worth $1 a month? $5? $50? Whatever you think is right! Also there’s loads of cool stuff you can only get here.
We have a whole bunch of super-cool merch now available on our TeePublic store: from fashion statements to decor, and only some of it in crazy, headache-inducing colours.
Super Loot want to deliver a box of nerdy merch and geek chic to your doorstep each month, and will do so for £19.99, (you can get your first one for £15!) Take a look, right flippin' now. Please. www.superloot.co.uk/ConversationHat
We even have a way for you to support the show without spending any money, (which is fine… I guess…) There’s a few ways you can do that:
Share episodes you like to your social networks;
Follow us on Twitter and retweet anything you see us post;
Like our Facebook page and hit as many thumbs-up icons as you possibly can;
Subscribe to the podcast on YouTube or Twitch and leave nice comments on any videos you watch;
Or, subscribe to the Odd Creative on YouTube, where you can watch some older Conversation Hat videos and sketches. Leaving comments is also encouraged.
Lastly, and this is the big one: leave a positive review on whatever listening platform you use.
