Urban Legends #1 - Grand Sale & Grambo

Welcome to the first episode in a series of upcoming quirky
stories about Urban Legends, originally released on Patreon when
we were making episodes.


All have an element of criminal seediness or conspiracy about
them. And as they play out, we’ll get to the bottom of whether
there’s any truth to these tales or if they’re purely myths.


In this first episode, we explore the rumours and realities of
famed Italian furniture salesman, Franco Cozzo, and the
gun-toting escapades of Melbourne grandmother, Ava Estelle.
