A mysterious ritual inside the Great Pyramid, a possible curse from the pharaohs, and a wartime grandad who kept riding straight through sniper fire — this week’s Extra Legendary Bit is gloriously unhinged.

The Extra Legendary Bit is where Johnny Vaughan and Gavin “The Woodman” Woods leave the history books behind and dive into your listener stories, family legends, and the kind of messages that make the inbox feel deeply unsafe.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

🐪 The Giza curse story – one listener shares the unsettling tale of a solo trip to Egypt, a secret ritual inside the King’s Chamber, and the suspicion that he may have been cursed ever since

🪖 Grandpa Reg’s desert run – a remarkable World War Two story about a dispatch rider racing through sniper fire in the North African desert

🎬 A wartime film pitch – the lads hear from a listener with a family escape-and-evasion story so good he thinks it should be turned into a proper screen adventure

If you love funny true stories, Egyptian mysteries, pyramid conspiracies, World War 2 stories, listener legends and comedy podcasts, this episode of Bloomin’ Legends is for you.
