  • It's the Knock Once For Yes 2022 Christmas Special!
    So, get your crackers at the ready, stand by to don your party hats and brace yourselves for some terrible, terrible jokes.
    We’ve got an update on the creepy dolls washing up on a Texas beach and a ghost cow! on the paranormal radar. We have listener stories from Alyson, Bob and Cody. We’ll be giving you a detailed run down of why Fitz shouldn’t be left unattended in charge of planning, as we share our Christmas Comedy of Errors, from Lincoln. And of course, as if you might have believed that we’d forgotten, we have the terribly cheesy, but always fun, Knock Once For Yes Christmas Quiz!

    When you were talking about the stuffed dog, I was imagining a plushie up until you mentioned it was taxidermized 🤣 I also had to look up "lurcher", as I had no idea what you were talking about other than it was a descriptor of the dog lol

    Despite all the set backs you experienced - you still managed to produce a brilliant Christmas episode. Many thanks.

      Thank you! It was a bit of a mission and we're going to have to go back soon so we can actually see the Magna Carta finally.

    I can sympathise with both of you - I'm not a 'peoply' person either. You wouldn't catch me anywhere near a Christmas market.

    The mystery of 'Wadden Organs' is solved! Wadden is the Frisian/Dutch word for tidal mud flats, so it's only logical that the locals would adopt that term, and the organ part would be the frogs tendency to start up a chorus at twilight (try camping in the French countryside - awful!) Oh Lil, you had to go and say it - my favourite catchphrase of yours - "Ribbit, ribbit". Now you will have to rename Bob the Frog to Bob the Wadden Organ!

    Happy Christmas evewryone! Very interesting episode - I'm alone and sick in bed with the flu, so I really enjoyed that.

      @@Knockonceforyes Thank you! Better now from the flu and the cold sores that came along with it. Still disabled though but that won't get better until maybe one day a surgeon agrees to operate. xx

    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Lil and Fitz. Your podcasts have kept me entertained all year while bookkeeping and uber delivering (side hustle) I just finished the history of Medieval England through The Great Courses and was delighted at how much I'd heard about through your podcasts.. So new years resolution is to listen to your podcasts all over again. 💞

    • @Knockonceforyes

      Thank you so much and we hope you had a great Christmas and are planning to have a Happy New Year!

      @Knockonceforyes I wanted to add, if you have even a moment of spare time to watch some TV, I have just finished watching a 2 season show called Spirited. It's an Aussie show made in 2010 about an uptight Sydney dentist that falls in love with a 80's rockstar ghost from the UK.. having listened to 5 years of your podcasts, I'm pretty sure it will tick every box for you.

      Oooh, I'll see if we can find it and check it out!

  • @beachcomberbob3496

    Perhaps the modern name of Lincoln is a concatenation of Lindum Colonia?

    • @Knockonceforyes
      @Knockonceforyes  ปีที่แล้ว

      Oooh, interesting hypothesis! I'll have to see if I can look it up somewhere.

    Lil if your pendant was shiny a crow or magpie might have nabbed it.

    • @Knockonceforyes
      @Knockonceforyes  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It was indeed shiny, so a distinct possiblity. Interestingly, Lil woke up one morning to find two magpies knocking on the bedroom window. I can't remember if it was around the same time.
