Beneath an ancient house in York, England, an apprentice heating engineer wasn't searching for ghosts—he was installing a boiler. Instead, he claimed to witness a column of weary Roman soldiers marching silently through a stone wall. For decades, skeptics dismissed one bizarre detail of his story... until archaeologists uncovered evidence that made the impossible seem a little more plausible. Was Harry Martindale the victim of a vivid hallucination, or did he glimpse something history can't quite explain? Then, meet one of the most influential innovators you've probably never heard of. Sarah Little Turnbull transformed industrial design by simply paying closer attention to how people actually live. Her observations helped inspire everything from ergonomic products to the cup-shaped respirator that evolved into today's N95 mask. Long before "design thinking" became a buzzword, Turnbull proved that curiosity and compassion could change the world. Along the way, Kat and Jethro celebrate the launch of Super Chomp Summer, explore strange summer phenomena, explain why the Eiffel Tower grows taller in the heat, why goats climb trees in Morocco, and uncover a few surprising facts about the Dog Days of Summer. If you love ghost stories, Roman history, forgotten inventors, fascinating science, archaeology, design, and the wonderfully weird, this episode of The Box of Oddities has something waiting for you. #GhostStories #RomanSoldiers #YorkEngland #Paranormal #AncientRome #SarahLittleTurnbull #N95 #IndustrialDesign #DesignThinking #HistoryPodcast #WeirdHistory #Archaeology #BoxOfOddities #Mystery #Curiosity Learn more about your ad choices.
