Thank you for listening to Sydney Untold!

This episode was about National Art School

Before the National Art School was born, it was a jail, known as the Darlinghurst Gaol. Over the years, the Darlinghurst Gaol has been home to some of Sydney's hardest criminals including Captain Moonlite and even Australian Poet Henry Lawson.

This episode contains themes of assault and physical abuse which might be distressing to some listeners. If you require assistance please contact organisations like Lifeline on 13 11 14 or Triple 0 if you require emergency attention.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
