Dig

On a scratchy recording made in a Melbourne hotel room, a man admits to committing murder. But as journalist Alicia Bridges investigates the man on the tape known as Mr Big, she finds herself in a world of lies and subterfuge, where very few things are as they seem. The recording leads her deep inside an international controversy, to a world of secrets that powerful institutions don't want revealed.

Mr Big is the latest season of Unravel, the ABC's award-winning true crime podcast.

The Franklin campaign isn't just an environmental conservation story, it's also a story about Aboriginal heritage.

Tasmanian Palawa man, activist and lawyer Michael Mansell talks to Piia Wirsu about this chapter in history, his experience growing up in a white Tasmanian society, and why he saw many of the Franklin activists as racist.

Christine Milne is a name synonymous with the Greens in Australia, and for her, like so many others, her environmental career began after she was arrested at the Franklin blockade.

In this extended interview, Christine takes us through the highs and lows of her career, and why she believes environmental activists should "just keep going".

The Franklin river's fate all comes down to a legal challenge between state and federal powers.

In the final episode of Saving the Franklin: the moment this so-called wilderness war all came to an end.

In this episode of Saving the Franklin, scenes on the West Coast get uglier and uglier, and the campaigners turn to the mainland for support as a Federal election looms.  

In this episode of Saving the Franklin, thousands of protesters fly into the sleepy town of Strahan to prepare for the biggest moment in the campaign: the blockade.

An army of national media descend, and the first bulldozer is taken upriver, for a shocking confrontation on the water. 

The campaigners had painted the Franklin River as an untouched natural wonder, a place free from human interference: a wilderness.

But the rediscovery of a cave along the Franklin throws everything into question. The finding is so significant it reshapes modern understanding of human history – and it paves the way for a new strategy to save the River.
