Season 4, Episode 5: The Tote, a Bachelorette Bar, Toxic Soil in Bulla, Rave Revival in Melbourne
Welcome to episode 5 of the Under Cover podcast! In this episode, we'll be looking at the stories behind entertainment and music venues in Melbourne. From the city's first women-only bar that somehow is also connected to the highly popular television show the Bachelorette, the burgeoning rave revival in Melbourne, to the agony and ecstasy of The Tote. We also look at the town of Bulla, where its residents have been dealing with possibly toxic soil from the West Gate Tunnel project.
A bit of warning: the story about The Tote, as befits the venue, has some strong language.
