Yesterday's Chip Paper is a fortnightly(ish) history podcast that finds tales of true crime, bizarre occurrences and curious characters in historic newspapers.
The show's creators are Violet and Jim, two amateur researchers based on opposite sides of the Atlantic - London and New York respectively - and every couple of weeks or so they get together via the magic power of the internet to discuss the stories, poems and letters to the editor that they’ve found in the archives.
Whether it’s global headline-making stories completely forgotten today or unusual reporting of famous events, it’s always guaranteed to be downright bonkers.
