  • VIII. Journey's End: Better to be feared than loved
    Carlo and Anna have travelled more than 1500 kilometres across two states, through remote parts of Australia to the capital of Victoria, trying to make sense of why and how the 'ndrangheta spread Down Under. In this final episode, they explore how the role of 'ndrangheta boss has changed in the last decades.

  • VII. The Tomato Tin Bust: The endless search for the boss of bosses
    If Carlton and Brunswick are the heart of the 'ndrangheta in Melbourne, the port is where its blood flows. It was here that an infamous drug seizure in 2007 drew attention to the hidden and dangerous world of trafficking. The notorious Tomato Tin bust at the Port of Melbourne was at the time the largest drug bust in the world.

  • VI. Carlton, Fitzroy and Brunswick: The stomping grounds of the 'ndrangheta
    The first official 'ndrangheta murder was in 1945 in Fitzroy and twenty years later the Queen Victoria Market was rocked by a mafia war. But it was on Lygon Street, Carlton's main thoroughfare and the cradle of the Italian community, that the bosses gathered: not only to plot the murder of a rival, but also to eat, socialise, and be seen.

  • V. Mayhem at Queen Victoria Market: A turf war erupts
    After exploring Griffith and Mildura, Carlo and Anna start the long drive back to Melbourne, 'ndrangheta's "third corner" in Australia. But how exactly is Melbourne connected to the origin of the Honorable Society Down Under? And what is the thread that connects a gruesome murder in post-war Fitzroy to a bloody turf war at the Queen Victoria Market in the 1960s?
    --------  
    33:07
  • IV. When a coffee is not a coffee: Extortion, bottlenecks, and hidden messages
    Mildura is a beautiful regional town known for food, wine and tourism. But it was here in the 1970s and 80s that the first "mafia tribunals" were established, and it was here that some of the more gruesome murders took place. Carlo and Anna try and untie some of the contradictions of this border town.

About My Australian Mafia Road Trip

What connects a stabbing in Fitzroy to a series of murders in the Queen Victoria Market and the disappearance of an aspiring politician in Griffith? In the 1960s, Australians first heard the word 'ndrangheta', the name for a ruthless mafia with origins in Calabria, that had taken root Down Under. My Australian Mafia Roadtrip will take you on a journey between Melbourne, Griffith and Mildura to discover key sites in Australia's mafia history. You will meet the protagonists of a century-old story and, together with hosts Carlo Oreglia and Anna Sergi, discover what lies behind the headlines.
