They Tried To Kill Us Off... Podcast
Welcome to They Tried To Kill Us Off – the newly independent Luton Town podcast, hosted by Kev and Jimbo. If you've noticed things look a little different... don't worry. You're in exactly the right place. After nine seasons as the Luton Town Supporters' Trust Podcast, we're starting a new chapter. We're now an independent podcast, but we're still the same podcast you've been listening to and watching since 2017. And if you're already subscribed to this podcast, you don't need to do a thing. Your subscription stays exactly where it is and you'll continue to get all our podcasts here as normal. Our new moniker comes from a famous chant every Luton supporter knows. It's about resilience, sticking together and refusing to be beaten. Luton against the world. We think it perfectly captures what supporting this football club is all about. We'd like to say a huge thank you to everyone at the Luton Town Supporters' Trust for their support over the past nine seasons and for helping us get to where we are today. We're incredibly grateful for everything we've been able to do together and we're delighted that the podcast can continue into this new chapter. And while this podcast channel remains exactly where it is, we've also got brand new social media accounts. We'd really appreciate it if you'd followed us there as well and join us for the next chapter: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheyTriedPod Facebook: facebook.com/TheyTriedLTFC X: x.com/TheyTriedLTFC Instagram: instagram.com/TheyTriedLTFC

DISGRACELAND is an award-winning music and true crime podcast about musicians getting away with murder and behaving very badly. Jerry Lee Lewis's 5th wife? Dead. Sid and Nancy? Both dead. Why? Because musicians are insane, and insane things happen to them. Why did we lose Amy Winehouse at 27? Was Debbie Harry really abducted by Ted Bundy as she claims? Is Patti Smith not just the "Godmother of Punk", but also the "Original True Crime Girl"? What really happened the night of the Jay Z nightclub stabbing? What do the Diddy indictments truly reveal? All these stories and more, on artists from every genre and their true crimes, in our massive 260-plus story archive. The Dead, the Stones, Johnny, Willie, Frank, Kurt, Courtney, Gaga, Lana, Taylor, and too many to name. DISGRACELAND is music history come to life through audio storytelling as you've never heard it before, with revealing facts: yes, assassins are the real reason the Beatles quit touring—reclaimed myths: no, Mama Cass didn't die from choking on a ham sandwich––and constant reckoning between art and artist––all told through the lens of true crime. This is the podcast for the self-proclaimed "Disgos", the musically obsessed and the true crime heads; the outsiders, the independent thinkers who know that the best history is the history that gets buried. DISGRACELAND is where host Jake Brennan tells the stories they didn't want told. The kind you'll end up telling someone else. Get ready to uncover hidden truths and buckle up for truly edge-of-your-seat storytelling. New, fully scripted, sound-designed episodes are released every Tuesday. Bonus chat-style episodes where Jake responds to voicemails, texts, and emails from Disgos hit on Thursdays, and "Rewind" episodes from our archive drop on Sundays. DISGRACELAND is not a journalistic podcast. It's an entertainment podcast inspired by true events. Certain dialogue and scenes are dramatized, as is common in scripted entertainment based on real stories. Sources and credits for each episode are available at www.disgracelandpod.com.
