MISSING PERSON ALERT! If you are the elusive J formerly of Portland – or you know him (identifying features: tattooed; can make coffee; listens to AMT) – please, listen to Answer Me This! Episode 322 to hear a J-aimed plea, as well as:
selfie stick casualties
Morris merch
Desperate Dan
Aussie Man and Van vs A Nice Man With a Van
Disney Parks vs American National Parks
spa breaks
fear of holidays
phone a friend
PopMaster
stag do fun
and
hair transplants.
Plus: if Olly’s head is looking a bit red, that’s just his hair deciding to grow back; Helen will need an activity break to recover from the stress of a spa relaxation break; and Martin the Sound Man recommends a nice relaxing tour of the castles of Wales.
In today’s Bonus Bit of Crap on the App – available for iThings, Android and Windows devices – Olly rejects the original Dennis the Menace for a foreign imposter.

Listeners who are interested in death in American National Parks are sure to enjoy the book “Over the Edge: Death in Grand Canyon”, which features “gripping accounts of all known fatal mishaps” in the Grand Canyon. It boasts sections on Falls from the Rims, River Crossers who Didn’t, Accidental Swimmers who fell in from Shore, Murder, and Suicides Spurred by Canyon Experiences. In Chapter One “Say, How Many People Fall Here?’ the table of deaths lists 11 photo related fatalities – the book was published in 2001 so there would be many many more by now. Made excellent road trip reading material.
