Absolutely have loved each and every series thus far.
Listening to Surafend, reinforces to me that the British Empire have a lot to answer for in regards to the area of Palestine, what was committed in World War 1 and its aftermath. Absolutely horrendous and abhorrent language used in the British description of the indigenous inhabitants. No wonder whats happening in Gaza is still continuing to this day.
Just finishing binging the Skase episodes. Fascinating, nostalgic and extremely well presented. Who can ever forget the grainy images of Skase in his wheelchair and fake oxygen mask. A must listen.
Comedic prodigy Mark Humphries’ brilliant and engaging bio-pod of Skase - Australia’s greatest Conman, could not have been more superbly written - proliferated with genius word-play at the expense of the pretty-boy protagonist and his money-hungry minions.
The intriguing tale of Christopher Skase, I absolutely loved it! The blend of storytelling and humor kept me engaged from start to finish. I highly recommend it!
Skase is a brilliant story and the podcast has fantastic access to experts and commentators. It’s a shame it’s let down by a sarcastic and condescending narration style that I find really annoying.
