Part two of this shocking story is about the brutal murder of John Price — a killing so gruesome it shocked even the most seasoned investigators. We trace the final, terrifying days leading up to his death, when obsession turned to rage and love curdled into violence. Through police reports, witness accounts, and psychological insights, we reconstruct the night Katherine Knight crossed the final line.

It’s a descent into unimaginable brutality: the culmination of years of volatility, control, and manipulation. As the evidence unfolds, we confront not only the horror of what she did, but the chilling precision with which she carried it out. This episode asks a haunting question — what happens when unchecked rage and deep-seated trauma finally explode?

Before she became Australia’s most infamous female killer, Katherine Knight was a child shaped by chaos, violence, and neglect. Part one of this 3 part series dives deep into her early years — from a brutal and scandalous family history to a childhood marked by trauma and cruelty. We explore the people, places, and patterns that molded her: the violent home she grew up in, her disturbing fascination with death and dominance, and how those early cracks in her psyche began to widen into something far more dangerous. It’s a story that forces us to ask — was Katherine born violent, or did her environment create her? And how do cycles of abuse, secrecy, and shame forge someone capable of such horror?

In this episode, we’re pulling up a seat around the campfire to share some of Australia’s eeriest stretches of asphalt.

From the ghostly lights that chase drivers along Lemon Tree Passage Road, to the whispered tales of the Street with No Name in Glebe, and the long, lonely expanse of the Newell Highway where travellers have reported seeing things that defy explanation, these are the roads where the living and the dead might just cross paths.

In this special Campfire Stories episode, we are joined by Claire, who brings her own spine-tingling story to the fire as well as Tim and Kate, who (for a change) Megan roped into a spooky adventure! Together, we dive into urban legends, tragic crimes, eyewitness accounts, and the strange energy that lingers long after the headlights fade.

So light the fire, turn the volume up, and join us as we explore the haunted roads of Australia — where every bend in the road might hide a story waiting to be told.

High in the Blue Mountains, the road at Mount Victoria Pass twists steep and narrow through rock and mist. By day, it’s breathtaking. But by night, it carries a darker reputation. Travelers whisper of a woman’s ghost drifting through the fog. Her story etched into the stones of the pass nearly two centuries ago.

This is the story of Caroline Collits. A child of the early colony whose short life was marked by hardship, betrayal, and violence. Her murder in 1842 shocked the settlement and left behind more than a legend, it left a haunting reminder of injustice that echoes into the present.

In this episode, we explore the history, the haunting, and the legend of the ghost of Victoria Pass. Was Caroline just a tragic figure of the past, or does she still walk the road today?

In honour of World Suicide Prevention Day, we share the story of Don Ritchie, the “Angel of The Gap,” whose quiet compassion saved hundreds of lives. We explore what it really means to be present for someone in crisis, and how connection can be life-saving.

We also look at the real-life Patch Adams, the man behind the movie and why he challenged Hollywood’s portrayal of mental illness. Along the way, we reflect on the loss of Robin Williams, and I share my own lived experience with suicide and what changed the way I think about prevention.

This is a deeply human story about pain, hope, and the importance of community. Join us, and this World Suicide Prevention Day, let’s commit to checking in on each other — because compassion and connection can save lives.

Trigger Warning: This episode discusses suicide, mental illness, and lived experiences of crisis. If this topic is distressing for you, please take care while listening.

In this episode, we head to Beowa National Park, to uncover the lesser-known stories behind one of Australia’s most infamous colonial figures, Benjamin Boyd- whose dicey legacy is literally etched into the landscape.

We explore a life of ambition, influence, and wealth—and the human cost that history has often left unrecorded. From the lives of South Sea Islanders coerced into labor to the whitewashing of history in museums and memoirs, we uncover the shadows behind celebrated landmarks and heroic myths.

Trigger Warning: This episode discusses historical instances of exploitation, coercion, and violence, including the forced labor of South Sea Islanders and the impact of colonial practices on Indigenous communities. Listener discretion is advised.

From defying his millionaire father to racing in the Sydney to Hobart yacht race, Peter Warner lived a life that refused to follow the map. His life reads like fiction - except every word is true. In this episode, we follow the remarkable journey of the man who rescued six Tongan boys from the island of ‘Ata - a story that made headlines around the world. But that was just one part of a life spent chasing purpose across oceans, through storms, and into places most people would never go. Join us as we trace the wake of a quiet adventurer who kept turning up in the right place at exactly the right time.

What does it really take to live close to the land, to find strength in stillness, and resilience in simplicity?

In this episode, we are joined by Eva Angophora — a rewilding facilitator, ancestorial skills practitioner, and deep believer in nature as teacher. Eva feels most at home outdoors, immersed in the rhythms of the wild: foraging, building, tanning hides, and guiding others back to connection with the natural world.

You might recognise her from Alone Australia Season 3, where she moved through what most of us would see as one of life's toughest challenges with a quiet, grounded power that caught the attention of viewers across the country.

We talk about what it really takes to survive, not just in the wild, but in ourselves. About the lessons nature offers us, if we’re willing to slow down and listen and how solitude can strip us back to who we really are.

This is a conversation about healing, self-reliance, and the kind of softness that’s often mistaken for weakness, but might just be our greatest human strength.
