G’day mates and welcome to All Aussie Hour, the new podcast from Melissa Mason and Josie Rozenberg-Clarke.

Tune in Tuesday 30 April for the first episode! Produced by DM PodcastsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, Mel tells Josie about saltwater crocodiles - those terrifying, dinosaur creatures that inhabit pretty much any body of water you'd fine in the Top End of Australia. Cunning, smart and absolutely ginormous, they've terrorised Aussies forever - but they're pretty cool, if you forget about how they can swallow you whole.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We're back! We're doing mysteries! It's like All Aussie Mystery Hour except it's not! This episode, Mel takes Josie through The Button Man, a mysterious guy who lives in the Victorian High Country area for periods each year. The thing is, there have also been several eerie disappearances in the same area over the last few years. Cue media suspicion of The Button Man - but is he just a prankster freaking out bushwalkers?
