In this episode Jed attempts to tell the multi-generational story of Yarramundi, Colebee and Maria of the Boorooberongal clan of the Dharug people of what is now Western Sydney. From the first encounters between the Dharug and the British on Dyarubbin in 1791, to the first ever land grant from the British regime to the original inhabitants of Australia in 1816, from Macquarie's aborted ‘native institute', the first Indigenous/British marriage and all through the stolen generation to the present day, Yarramundi's family have been at the centre of the unfolding relations amongst the people that call Western Sydney home. In this podcast we discuss The History Listen podcast episode Yarramundi and the people of Dyarubbin and the Sydney University research that debunks one of the stories they tell. As with anything do with the people of Dyarubbin, Grace Karskens research is wonderfully helpful and the State Government published Dyarubbin: Mapping Aboriginal history, culture and stories of the Hawkesbury River that she was involved with is well worth a look if you're interested in the specific geography of these last few episodes. Lastly, at the end of the episode we plug The Australian Histories Podcast and Jed also mentions a book he read on William Buckley, which is Jock Serong's Buckley's Chance.

It's 50 years since the glorious Lake Pedder in Southwest Tasmania was dammed for the Hydro-Electric Scheme. It was a glacial, alpine lake, a place of deep and obvious ecological significance. Rima Truchanas learned to swim in Lake Pedder and watched on with her family as it drowned. Her early life was shaped by her parent's involvement in the campaign to save it. Now, there are plans to restore the Lake to its former glory. Frances Green has produced a documentary for RN's History Listen about this campaign — a movement that spearheaded the Greens political movement in Australia.

In 1932, 9-year-old Lennie Gwyther set out to ride a thousand kilometers to see the opening of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Along the way he became a symbol of Australian grit and determination. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll tell the story of Lennie's journey, and what it meant to a struggling nation. We'll also recall a Moscow hostage crisis and puzzle over a surprising attack. Intro: Japanese detective novelist Edogawa Rampo's name is a phonetic homage. Samuel Barber decided his future at age 9.
