This week we talk about all things Halloween, from the origins of the festival to some of the strange customs that we still follow today.
DISCLAIMER: We decided to do this one tipsy and whilst we had a laugh, we accept no liability for any insane giggling or impromptu games of Snap Apple that result.
SECOND DISCLAIMER: Don't Try Snap Apple At Home - seriously... don't.

Episode 10 - We Will Remember Them
This week we commemorate the centenary of the end of the First World War with the help of a very special guest - our good friend Iain. Whilst we have been as factual as possible and tried to maintain our usual style, there is no denying the gravity of the subject matter. On behalf of TARBISHistory, we would like to say thank you to everybody who gave their lives in that terrible conflict, and those who fought in the wars to follow and who will in the wars yet to come.
We Will Remember Them.
