This episode is all about the truths that we can find in stories.  

And on that topic of finding truth in stories, All the Best would like you to take a moment to recognise National Sorry Day, because all good stories are a kind of truth-telling.

 

A House by Katie Stefankowski

In this story, a Lutruwita urban legend lures you into the mystery of a datura plant.

Was the house really haunted? If not, where did the noises come from? Were the people really poisoned?”

Through interviews with locals, writers, and media researchers, the piece explores why unverifiable stories continue to spread and what they reveal about fear, place, and collective imagination. 

“ Even if it isn't true, can there be any kind of meaning in a fake story?”

Produced by: Katie Stefankowski

Supervising Producer: Sarah Mashman

 

The Sound of Adventure by Benjamin Chubb

In this story, a thrill-filled adventure for gamers.

A journey into the imaginative world of Dungeons & Dragons, where creativity, role-play, and storytelling collide through the eyes of a passionate dungeon master.

After all, who wouldn’t want to fight dragons and their own friends’ terrible decisions all in one night?
