Welcome to the ESON Games + the Unknown Stories of Adelaide and Melbourne

We are pretty excited this is our 10th ESON Episode and to celebrate we're going to have a bit of fun, and play our version of the ESON Games, think Hunger Games but only better.

Listen in as Ben and  Kristy both share 3 things about each other's town Ben - Melbourne, Kristy - Adelaide. 

The aim is to try and stump each other with an amazing or unique and obscure fact. 
Plus to make it interesting we haven’t told each other what we’ve found out, so it will be a total surprise. How well do you know your home town?

Kristy pulls out the big guns and brings in family to help win, but does she? Ben has activated all the Sound Effects known to man.

There can only be one winner, who will it be? Sit back and relax and enjoy the banter!
