  • Ern Malley has become one of Australia's most famous and enduring poets. Celebrated by the Angry Penguins literature movement of the 1940s, it soon came to light that there was a small problem with modernism's new hero... the poet didn't actually exist and the whole thing was an elaborate hoax. Joining us to hear about the Ern Malley Affair is Wil Anderson.

  • Hatshepsut is now recognised as the most successful woman to rule Egypt as pharaoh! Her story is a bit of a rollercoaster in life and also in death, as historians have changed the way they've seen her over the years. Joining us to hear this epic story are the very funny New Yorkers, Ashley Hamilton and Claire Parker from Celebrity Memoir Book Club!


    This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 14:08 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).
