The Bubonic Plague Hits Sydney

If These Trees Could Talk is an Australian storytelling podcast shaped by memory. The kind held quietly in both land and people. Some stories linger where they happened, settling into soil, roots, and place. If These Trees Could Talk explores Australian true crime, mystery, history, and the paranormal, listening for what unfolded here and what still echoes through the landscape. From the same roots grows What Would They Say. A connected space for the wisdom of lived experience, inner landscapes, emotional truth, and the stories so often left unspoken. Like the trees, we exist as part of an intricate ecosystem; connected beneath the surface and sustained through community. When stories are shared, their weight is dispersed, allowing understanding, healing, and connection to grow.
