This week Mel surprises Josie with the story of Schapelle Corby, a regular Gold Coast gal who became one of the most famous Aussies of the 00s when she was arrested, then jailed for allegedly smuggling drugs.

Wine pairing: Not wine this week! Instead, we sipped the signature cocktail from Laneway Bar & Dining (sadly closed), Mercedes Corby's restaurant - vodka, lime and kombucha. 100% would drink again.

Want to avoid the zest? Skip to 18.00.
