Today we journey back to 2011 and the beautiful yet dangerous lands of Far North Queensland, where Aussie legend Todd Bairstow went for a run of the mill post-work fishing trip with his dog Dig Dig. What happened for Todd for the next 30 minutes of his life is something that has to be heard to be believed, and is a story of incredible will to survive combined with once in a lifetime luck.

#12 - Why Did Ricky Megee Really Go Missing?

After a quick anecdote about the history of Chinese restaurants in regional Australia and Lottie's disgust for the movie 'Dude, Where's My Car?', we delve into the mystery shrouded story of Ricky Megee. In 2006, Ricky was found in "one of the most isolated parts of Australia" - the Birrindudu Cattle Station (500km southwest of Katherine) sheltering under a water trough, with the appearance of a skeleton. After receiving treatment at the Royal Darwin Hospital, Ricky's recount of how he ended up is a yarn that put's Tom Hanks' 'Castaway' to shame, but due to his colourful past, one question remains - do you believe him?
