Carl Willams...

Tara and Barney have joined forces for an hour long special edition on Carl Williams! Crime boss, serial killer, prison snitch, loving father and husband, gutless coward and scum-cleansing hero - there are many ways to describe Carl Williams. The Australian public's regard for Carl vacillates between Melbourne underworld cult legend and merciless, simpering, dumbass criminal. By the end of the self-proclaimed “Premier's” reign he participated in, or ordered, somewhere between 7 to 12 murders in a Melbourne gangland war that viciously claimed over 30 lives.

Mark Chopper Read Special Edition...

Barney and Tara join forces for a 1 hour long look at Aussie crime icon Chopper Read! Chopper was a violent standover man, robbing drug dealers and pimps and torturing those who resisted his demands until they started to see things his way. His specialities were removing toes with bolt cutters and blow torches as well as putting live explosives in his mouth and threatening to blow up everyone, including himself. He proudly spoke of his moral code, saying that although he may have killed 19 people, tortured a lot more and caused a shit tonne of property damage he never hurt any innocent civilians. When he was released from prison in the early 1990’s Chopper parlayed his unique turn of phrase and sense of humour into becoming a best-selling true-crime writer, an author of children's books, a painter, rapper and stand-up comedian.
