    A Murder of Note – Part Three: The Villain as Victim

    With Mary Ann Brown dead, and no doubt that Kenneth killed her, his April 1876 murder trial appeared to be an open-and-shut case.  But he had the best defence that money could buy – and a colonial elite closing ranks to protect one of their own.

    New Miniseries: A Murder of Note – Part One: A Man of the Killing Times

    We all know Edith Cowan – first woman elected to an Australian parliament – graces out $50 note.  But did you know she was shaped by a traumatic childhood? In 1876, her father, the prominent colonial settler and explorer Kenneth Brown, shot her stepmother dead.  This was a crime that shocked Western Australia – and one whose elements are all too common 150 years later. In Part One of this new miniseries, we look at the forces that shaped Kenneth, from Frontier War violence to his tilt at the Melbourne Cup. If you’re in danger from domestic violence, call Triple 0.

    Talking History - Australia’s Real-Life Jack Sparrow

    Ahoy, me hearties!  William Swallow became the pirate captain of the convict ship Cyprus after he seized the vessel in Tasmania in 1829. From there, it was a case of ‘Bring me that horizon!’, with Swallow and his crew of motley misfits setting sail for freedom on the far side of the world. Author Ally Burnham joins us to explain how she researched this swashbuckling true story for Swallow, the first novel in an epic trilogy that will thrill fans of Master and Commander. It's an amazing tale of a fast-talking escape artist, of high stakes on the high seas, and of boldness and tenderness in an era of unspeakable brutality. Plus: Ally has some top tips on how to swear like a pirate!  Support Forgotten Australia for a few bucks per month for ad-free early and exclusive bonus episodes and the chance to win prizes.

    Australia's Forgotten Serial Maniacs

    In 1837, three cold-blooded killers committed a series of bloody outrages that left nine people dead. Two of these murderers were to face their own gruesome fates. But, in an ironic twist, the third would be legally untouchable despite all the victims he'd shot and axed.
