Welcome to the Forgotten News podcast. This is your window to hear true stories from long ago. Stories that once made headlines. Stories that people thought would be unforgettable, but soon were lost in the sands of time, or were buried deep in the dustbin of history. In this podcast, we brush off the sand and dust, and share those stories with you, today — as fresh as when they were first told.

  • Congrats on 5 years!

    I started with the Mingo-Kabiska episode and it blew my mind! I loved listening to the old timey radio show. It was a great way to celebrate the podcast’s 5th anniversary. I’ll be binge listening to the back catalogue now for sure!

  • I like it!

    This podcast is not like what I usually listen to. It has a different format and story telling style than anything I've heard but I find the uniqueness is it's strength. The topics are not what you hear all the time and that's refreshing.

  • It’s a shame

    The stilted presenter then another giggling for no reason. Would be a much better podcast with decent presenters. I don’t know why this side hasn’t improved in 5 years

  • Uhhh

    This is probably the strangest podcast I’ve ever come across. The episode I listened to was about a fellow who was referred to by his last name which I actually forgot, but let’s call him Johnson. One host was reading the story about him, but every time the name “Johnson” came up, another host said it. Not to mention the bizarrely slow delivery and the dude who recorded his part with a 1980s tape recorder.
