The true story of Chow Hayes, Australia's first gangster.

ABC Conversation Hour is a Podcast that consists of two people, two mikes and an hour of conversation. This means that they get into the meat of the interview rather than just skating over the top.

One that caught my eye was The true story of Chow Hayes, Australia's first gangster.

Hayes after being arrested in Sydney, Australia. 6 November 1930

Chow Hayes was a Sydney underworld figure in Australia's 1920s and 30s. I really recommend this as a listen, just to understand the times and how the criminal element behaved at the time. It is evocative and will help anyone thinking of creating a Push (Gang) for ARBM.

Good Bye 2018.
