Weird Crap in Australia

We're heading back into the Australian outback, and this time, Mick Taylor is waiting.

Join Holly & Matthew as they watch Wolf Creek 2 (2013), Greg McLean's sequel to the Australian horror film that gave a whole generation of travellers another reason to be nervous about taking a wrong turn in the outback.

Expect outback horror, questionable tourist decisions, an uncomfortably familiar brand of Australian hospitality, and our usual commentary as we talk through the film, its place in Australian horror, and the things that catch our attention along the way.

Because watching a horror film about an Australian serial killer in the outback is one thing. Watching it with us talking over the top is another.

Grab your copy of Wolf Creek 2, press play, and watch along!

In 1936, a man disappeared from the small New South Wales town of Grenfell. More than a decade later, a travelling shearer named Fred McDermott found himself at the centre of a murder investigation that would change his life forever.

Join Holly & Matthew as they explore the disappearance of Harry Lavers, the investigation that followed, and the extraordinary case against Fred McDermott. With conflicting evidence, unanswered questions and a murder that seemed to have no body, the case would become one of the more remarkable chapters in Australia's criminal justice history.

Fred Hollows was a surgeon who believed that eyesight shouldn't be determined by where you were born or how much money you had. His work took him from Australia to some of the world's poorest communities, where he helped establish eye-care programs and trained local medical staff to continue the work.

Join Holly & Matthew as they explore the life and legacy of Fred Hollows, from his early career in ophthalmology and his work with FIrst Nations communities in Australia to the international foundation that continues his mission today. It's a story about medicine, social justice, and one very stubborn Australian who decided that preventable blindness shouldn't be something people simply had to accept.
