Adelol

As part of the 2018 Adelaide Fringe we explore the life of Sarah Francisco, an Irish woman with a tragic upbringing who still holds the record for South Australia's most arrested individual. A dead parent, a dead child, crippling alcoholism and a constant battle against an unjust system. In hindsight we probably should have picked a less tragic story to tell to a live audience. If you missed out, fear not, as you can still get tickets to our final 2018 Adelaide Fringe Show here, which will be at Chateau Apollo, 74 Frome St., Sunday the 18th of March, 8:30pm.

Our first ever live show at the Crown & Anchor explores the story of a sticky fingered gent and his impact on the 1867 Royal Tour, Edwin Turner Osbaldiston. Thanks to all who came out and had a laugh with us, we truly appreciated you giving us a fantastic reception for our first show Infront of an audience. Our final live show for the 2018 Adelaide Fringe Festival will be on the 18th of March, tickets here.

It's not the first time that Blackfriars Priory School has had to cover up an erection, so enjoy this mini episode about some local modern history full of LOLs. Tickets to our 2018 Adelaide Fringe Show available here. Like a statue at Blackfriars, please come.

This mini-episode has nothing to do with history, but is instead about an interesting business in Alberton, Lifestyle Coffins. We avoid death at all costs, but when it does happen, the aptly named Lifestyle Coffins are here to fulfill your greiving family's most ridiculous requests. Please check out their website for the LOLs and to order your AdeLOL branded casket today.

This sensational AdeLOL explores the life of Queen Adelaide, the strong woman our city is named after, but many of us know very little about. A frugal, charitable, lived, if not slightly boring Queen, the story is quickly taken over by the arranged marriage to hilarious scallywag King William. Tickets to our live Adelaide fringe shows available here. Beer of the episode is 'The Naked Objector' by the Little Bang Brewing Co.

In a very special episode, we sat down on New Year's Eve and discussed the Beverage Container Refund with a very special international guest, Bec Stewart, all the way from the UK. Whilst the history surrounding this episode isn't that exciting, Dan's tales of his years working in a recycling depot are slightly concerning.

We had a few drinks at Sinclair's Gully winery for a wedding and decided to read the entrance sign to make an episode. A great location and eco certified winery check them out.

In our very special Christmas episode, we compare how we celebrated our Christmases as kids living on different sides of the world. Dan shares stories from SA and Tom shares stories of the UK. Merry Christmas listeners, thanks for all your support this year.

Marineland was an attraction of sorts at West beach that opened in 1969 and closed in 1988. It was a great place, you could see Mr. Percival, dine in the underwater restaurant, and watch some captured animals perform in dilapidated surrounds. This one is actually kind of shocking. Beer of the episode was the Gulf Brewery Smoke Stack Rauchbier...never again. 

The tale of how a small promotion for a department store became an Adelaide icon. Basically they just ripped off the Macy's Day Parade, kinda like how we ripped off The Dollop. It's what Adelaide does best.

Take a trip back to the 80s with us as we CHRONICle the story of the Adelaide 36ers. Coached by basketball legend Ken Cole, a colourful (mainly green) character who took "The Invincibles", and himself, higher than ever before.

What was once the world's longest reversable one way freeway is now just a regular freeway. It's a damn shame, a damn hilarious and expensive shame. Have a listen and lol at our improv jingle. Thanks to Baxters for the great episode suggestion.

This AdeLOL explores the life of great South Australian, Hubert Wilkins, whose adventurous spirit took him all over the world. Sure, he had a few mishaps along the way, so that's what we'll be focusing on. We'd also like to remind everyone that we never promised each episode would be a slam dunk. Beer of the episode was Big Shed 'Fuck Yeah' American Pale Ale.

Get your insulin ready, we explore one of the most beloved and consumed SA icons, Farmer's Union Iced Coffee. It's mainly us just telling personal stories about it, but as true South Aussies, it definitely runs through our glucose heavy blood. It's an AdeLOL podcast or it's nothing, so have a listen FUIC-heads

An upside down pie in a dirty bowl of pea soup, covered in sauce from a cart parked in a city street. Just as delicious as it sounds. The Pie Floater holds a special place in many South Australian's hearts and bowels. Find out why, but not actually how, this came to be our state dish. Seriously, nobody knows where it actually originated, but we unofficially make the call. Beer of the episode, Shifty Lizard Pale Ale. #GibbsThemAGo

A classic tale of a drug dealing escort and her samurai sensei using fake police lights because they were running late for court, only to somehow be noticed by the real police.

This AdeLOL explores Tommy the Elephant from Calcutta. He was shipped to Adelaide at a young age and spent a good amount of time at the Cremorne Hotel before being sent up north to work in Smithfield and Gepps Cross.  We learn how cruel humans can be, the possible whereabouts of Tommy's bones, and how to save on our international mobile data packages. Beer of the episode is Pirate Life Pale Ale.

A wee Giggleaide about the O-Bahn and an Irish tourist.

We explore Adelaide's alleged "black widow", accused of poisoning and killing several men in her life. It's a tale that certainly doesn't beg the question "was it all just a big coincidence?" So join us on this not so mysterious mystery, as we sing way too much and drink the Smiling Samoyed IPA laced with Round Up.

Sink your teeth into this Giggleaide where Tom reads Dan a story about a woman iting a waiter over a bill dispute at a Gouger Street restaurant. The latest update since recording is she will appear back in court this month.
