Two historic Melbourne monuments were vandalised as tens of thousands of people took to the streets to protest the controversial Australia Day holiday. A statue of John Batman, a founder of Australia's second largest city who was also involved in the deaths of indigenous people, was sawn in half and a monument commemorating Australian soldiers in World War One was covered in red paint. Australian correspondent Oliver Peterson says police have launched investigations into these incidents - as well as similar acts of vandalism across the country.

This show is known to poke fun at the land down under on more than several occasions.  We felt it necessary to do a show on Australia to mispronounce the silly sayings, and give the worst recounting of its history possible... We didn't even mention the giant ducks that used to live there (stupid fail).  Also, we regret all of the probable insults to Australians... enjoy!Support the show

Guinevere Hall from Typeface Books in Applecross joins us once a month on "Remember When" to talk historical books. In this segment we discuss the books: "Truganini: Journey through the apocalypse" by Cassandra Pybus - The haunting story of the extraordinary Aboriginal woman behind the myth of 'the last Tasmanian Aborigine'. "The Ghost and the Bounty Hunter: William Buckley, John Batman and the theft of Kulin Country" by Adam Courtenay - Just after Christmas 1803, convict William Buckley fled an embryonic settlement in the land of the Kulin nation (now the Port Phillip area), to take his chances in the wilderness. A few months later, the local Aboriginal people found the six-foot-five former soldier near death. Believing he was a lost kinsman returned from the dead, they took him in, and for thirty-two years Buckley lived as a Wadawurrung man, learning his adopted tribe's language, skills and methods to survive.

In early 19th century Australia, escaping from a penal colony was not an easy task, mostly because there was no where to go. Six foot five William Buckley did just that, however, wandering though the wild Australian bush before being taken in by a tribe of aborigines, close to death. For the next thirty-two years he would live with the tribe, before finally meeting famed bushranger and bounty hunter John Batman.  My guest, Adam Courtenay, is an Australian author and historian, and he joins me to talk about this legendary character and his role in one of the most dangerous and tragic eras in Australia's history. His book is called "The Ghost and the Bounty Hunter." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The gang is back together! We start with the story of John Batman, co-founder of Melbourne, capturer of cannibals, and genocidal asshole. This dude may share a name with the iconic superhero, but the stuff he did was in no way heroic (except capturing a known cannibal, we’ll give him props for that). An important … Continue reading "Ep 37 – John Batman, Painless Parker"
