The iron furnace stuff is fascinating, you spend an entire show just on that, though I see Dan's point about if you're the sort of person who listens to podcasts. Though his "Maybe women juts hate Jews more", .....Another brilliant podcast.

Also when Greg began "I discovered things on youtube" I thought this segment was going somewhere completely different.

The "game" of Pimp My Time is we only have 60 minutes to come up with an idea and research it before we are blasted back to a bygone age to , hopefully, use our new research to become Kings (or in my case last time. Merlin). However, I can honestly say that my research into celtic iron smelting has led me down a rabbit hole of reading and viewing. A skill I thought would be impossible hard is so .. attainable. I honestly believe with enough time and plenty of trail and error I could smelt iron in a clay forge.The biggest issue holding me back, bog iron. There are no bogs in the local area and Dan won't let me take the Comedy Blimp for non-comedic purposes

Will keep an eye out down here in Melbourne. Will send any lumps I find while poking about in bogs up to you.

Let me know if you find any appropriate Bogs near you. Dan and could take the show on the road!
