Über diesen Titel

Ordinary Observations is the radio equivalent of knowing enough to know you’re wrong, but knowing too little to care about the details. It gives enough for a passing grade and leaves room to figure out the rest along the way. Join Jack as he discusses a bizarre potpourri of ideas, occurrences, personalities, and problems from all imaginable corners of the globe, across all of recorded history.

  • Showing Up To One's Own Funeral
    Feb 11 2026

    This week on Ordinary Observations we take a look at a few novel stories of people who have showed up alive to their own funerals. First off we meet Ms Noella Rakundo and discuss her miraculous story of survival before confronting the very person who tried to have her killed. We get on the lash and go missing with a 22 year old Argentinian dude who stumbled in red-faced to his own funeral service after his family thought he had been hit by a truck. And we ask some uncomfortable questions to Timothy Dexter, a particularly lucky 18th Century entrepreneur, who faked his own death and staged a funeral in order to find out how his friends and acquaintances would react. Listen in for these stories and a few laughs this week on Ordinary Observations.

  • Stealing Copper
    Dec 24 2025

    Getting into the festive spirit this week on Ordinary Observations we express a little admiration for the creative lengths some clever people are willing to go to in order to steal a little copper. We discuss a recent spate of theft committed right here in Gothenburg, by a gang dressed up as roadworkers. We look back at an illegitimate German demolition crew who once made off with four kilometres worth of railroad. And we consider how a few Romanian fraudsters committed the "Theft of the Year" back in 2018. All this packaged up with a few laughs, this week on Ordinary Observations.

  • Cheating on Exams
    Dec 6 2025

    This week Jack is once again joined by long time friend of the show Manoj to discuss a few fun stories of people trying to cheat on their exams. We start off with an odd excuse for a man to refuse revealing what's in his hand during a Swedish driving theory test. We catch up with a few would-be teachers wearing very expensive flip flops in Rajasthan. And we make a smash and grab attempt at stealing a possible illegitimate exam paper at the University of Otago in New Zealand. All this and a handful of laughs this time on Ordinary Observations!
