Joined by co-host Fraser, they delve deep into the eerie world where past and present collide, leaving witnesses questioning reality itself.

    The episode then shifts to Bold Street in Liverpool, a hotbed for time slip phenomena. James recounts two startling incidents on this iconic street. The first involves a man named Frank who, in the 1990s, suddenly found himself in the 1950s, witnessing a scene straight out of a bygone era. The second story tells of delinquent who stepped back in time to escape the police.

    James and Fraser then engage in a thought-provoking discussion about these time slips, exploring theories and speculations surrounding these inexplicable events. They ponder whether these incidents are glimpses into parallel universes, faults in the fabric of time, or something even more mysterious.
