This episode (no. 65) was recorded at The Hill Street Theatre in the Edinburgh Fringe on 8th August 2024.
The panellists were C.J. Hooper (from the U.K.), Kaytlin Bailey (from the U.S.) and Aleksandr Popov (from Estonia), and the host was Richard Pulsford.
We presented On This Day topics from across a very wide timespan:

- Sweden defeated by Estonian tribes on 8th August 1220
- Europe's first hot air balloon flight on 8th August 1709
- The Beatles pose for the Abbey Road album cover on 8th August 1969
- U.S. President Richard Nixon steps down on 8th August 1974
Kaytlin also shared a piece on Edinburgh's "madam" Dora Noyce.
