528 - A Haunting in Canberra

Not only is Canberra the capital of Australia, according to National Geographic it is one of the most haunted cities IN THE WORLD! This week Dave investigates three of Canberra's most haunted places (Hotel Kurrajong, Blundells Cottage and The National Film and Sound Archive). Recorded on Halloween 2025, live at Smiths Alternative in Canberra. This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 04:53 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).
