Flan, Craig, and Uncle Tim dive into history’s biggest “we meant well” catastrophes — from farmers nuking their land to dodge endangered mice, to Mao’s sparrow‑killing fiasco, to America’s prohibition face‑plant, and Burger King’s infamous Women’s Day tweet. It’s chaotic, stupid, educational, and very Flogs.

A runaway cat, a rogue rugby‑playing transit officer, and Melbourne’s infamous feet‑on‑seat standover racket—this week’s Flogs on a Train 2 goes absolutely off the rails.

We break down the 2013 Flinders Street spear tackle where a 15‑year‑old was slammed head‑first into concrete over a $2.50 fare (“CCTV footage showed the officer lifting the teenager upside down and slamming her head first into the concrete…” ).Then it’s onto the legendary $300 fines for resting your feet on metal seat frames (“Commuters in Melbourne have long battled with ticket inspectors… carrying a three hundred dollars fine…” ).Finally, the tragic Paris Montparnasse incident where Niko the cat was killed after staff refused to delay a TGV (“We saw him sliced in half.” ).

Ethical dilemmas, train dogs, spear tackles, and corporate tone‑deafness—this episode is peak chaos.

Flan, Craig and Uncle Tim dive into the wildest rail floggery ever recorded — from New York workers building a secret man cave under Grand Central, to France accidentally buying 2,000 trains that didn’t fit in their stations, to Sydney’s absolutely cooked “binocular wire audit” that trapped commuters like a real‑life Hunger Games.

Chaos, incompetence, and flogs galore.

Perfect listening for anyone who’s ever said, “Surely that can’t be true.”
