G’day mates and welcome to All Aussie Hour, the new podcast from Melissa Mason and Josie Rozenberg-Clarke. You might remember them from the hit podcasts All Aussie Mystery Hour and The Zest Is History, and to be quite honest their new offering is… basically the same.
Each week, one host will spin the other a yarn from Australia’s rich and, let’s face it, completely batshit past. Strap in for zesty tales, weird mysteries and potentially even some research!
