G’day mates and welcome to All Aussie Hour, the new podcast from Melissa Mason and Josie Rozenberg-Clarke. You might remember them from the hit podcasts All Aussie Mystery Hour and The Zest Is History, and to be quite honest their new offering is… basically the same. Each week, one host will spin the other a yarn from Australia’s rich and, let’s face it, completely batshit past. Strap in for zesty tales, weird mysteries and potentially even some research! Tune in Tuesday 30 April for the first episode! Produced by DM PodcastsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This month, Josie (fresh from her trip to France) tells Mel about Nancy Wake - an Aussie living in the south of France who became a spy known as the White Mouse during WWII. This episode of The Zest Is History was produced by Josie Rozenberg-Clarke, with research by Caitlin Robson.
