A very entertaining telling of a piece of Australian History. We don’t say God love the 80s for nothing.
Like most other history podcasts created by western media, this one also heavily focuses on the plight of the Jewish people in the 1940s but completely ignores the fate of the Palestinian people after 1948. Not a single episode.
A terrific telling of the Skase story. Mark Humphries does a wonderful and humorous job of telling the story. “The Bain in Spain was not on the plane” - gotta be proud of that one! 🤣🤣🤣
A+ job in the Skase mini series. Really brought back some nostalgia. I’ve shared it with younger family members so they could understand how Australia was like, especially the earlier episodes of the 80s
Mark Humphries humour brings wild story of Skase to life
