In this episode, Wayne is delving into the surge of violence in Melbourne as part of the ongoing tobacco wars. Targeted attacks, drive-bys, firebombings, even the death of innocent civilians caught in the middle; and the violence is showing no signs of stopping.

Joining Wayne is Ryan Naumenko, a former crook turned independent journalist who has made a career exposing the truth of the criminal underworld. In this podcast, he’s laying it all out on the table, from insider information, to the attempt on his own life.
