Ask google Who discovered gold in Australia? and you'll promptly get 'Edward Hammond Hargraves'. Hargraves has for decades (and decades) received the fame, fortune and adulation from all corners of the country, but did he earn it? What about the two diggers he met on the Californian goldfields who told him where to look when he returned home to Australia? What about the guys who led him to where they'd heard gold had been found before? What about the pioneers whose discoveries had been documented years earlier?

In 1979, the idea of an oral history based project on the administration of Papua New Guinea germinated at the ABC, driven by Tim Bowden and Daniel Connell. This massive undertaking involved the recording of 350 hours of tape recorded interviews with Australians and Papua New Guineans who had been involved with Australia's colonial administration which ended with self government and independence in 1975.

When the first convoys of the ANZAC Expeditionary Forces sailed from Albany’s majestic King George Sound in November and December 1914, they carried with them hundreds of horses.

This wonderfully eclectic yet uniformly awful compendium traverses millennia of dreadful concepts, from homeopathy to hacky sacks, from Esperanto to Elmo and from athleisure to the Apple Vision Pro, demonstrating that alongside the magnificent march of human progress are many examples of failure, farce and outright fraud – many of which are far more hilarious than intended.

Armistice is a three-part series from Conversations bringing to life the stories of Australians who went to the Western Front and connecting them to the family folklore of their descendants. The Great War came to an end a century ago, with the signing of the armistice between the Allies and the German Empire, but its aftershocks reverberate through so many Australian families, even now. So many of the men who went to the front didn’t come back, and those who did were changed forever.

An untold tale of Australians at war: the first ABC war correspondents and how radio broadcast from the battlefields to those at home waiting for news. With the outbreak of the Second World War, a new breed of reporters joined the ranks of war correspondents - and through the reach and power of radio, Australians back home heard their voices and their stories shaped from the sounds of battle, out of the white noise of the ether.

A finales de los años 90 pasaron muchas cosas que están marcadas en la memoria colectiva de España. Los asesinatos de Gregorio Ordóñez y de Miguel Ángel Blanco abrieron un nuevo episodio de terror en el País Vasco. Cambiaron las reglas del juego y el Estado tuvo que actuar dando protección a cualquiera que levantase la voz contra ETA, entre ellos concejales de pueblo, periodistas o profesores. Cerca de 3.000 escoltas privados sirvieron en el País Vasco entre los años 1999 y 2012. La suya fue una profesión nueva, que se creó de la nada y con gente que apenas tenía experiencia. En ...

Now, the Navajo people are demanding their water back, and they’re closer than ever to securing this basic human right.
