Wait... They Did What?! is the question you’ll be asking after travelling back through modern history with comedian Tilly Oddy-Black. We’ll unearth the weird, wild and outright scandalous common practices of people in the olden days... like letting kids buy fireworks, banning bikinis on the beach, putting blood-sucking leeches on sick people, and riding in cars without seatbelts. It’s the podcast that will make you feel just a little bit smarter than your parents and grandparents. Credits: Host: Tilly Oddy-Black Producers: Samantha Turnbull and Soumia Bella Sound engineer: Que Nguyen Archive researchers: Michael Osmond and Carolyn Cage Composer: David McDonald Executive producers: Veronica Milsom and Alex Lollback
