Josie spins a yarn for Mel all about Perth's self-confessed serial killer, the shifty, drifty & suss Richard Dorrough. He has been linked to two women's deaths... but who is the third?

This week, Mel tries out horse-racing expertise. Obviously failing miserably - was Australia's favourite racehorse Phar Lap murdered by gangsters, or was his tragic death an accident?

Josie can't resist re-hashing her mystery, the Bogle-Chandler case, from the Sydney live show because a) the venue didn't record it b) it is just that zesty and c) Mel can't remember it because they were both v. drunk at the time.

Skipping the zest? You're gonna wanna head straight to 13:10.
