Urban Legends #1 - Grand Sale & Grambo

Welcome to the first episode in a series of upcoming quirky stories about Urban Legends, originally released on Patreon when we were making episodes.

All have an element of criminal seediness or conspiracy about them. And as they play out, we’ll get to the bottom of whether there’s any truth to these tales or if they’re purely myths.

In this first episode, we explore the rumours and realities of famed Italian furniture salesman, Franco Cozzo, and the gun-toting escapades of Melbourne grandmother, Ava Estelle.
