Great episode 👏🏻 I grew up in Camden, NSW. The Macarthur’s are a celebrated part of our local history too. Their descendants, who I went to school with, still live in the original home built by the Macarthur’s called Camden Park House. I remember doing a project on Elizabeth Macarthur and how integral to the family business she was. She has many things named after her here including a school, road and housing estate.

@@EtreTocsin I dunno, Dad looked a little stunned lol, they probs chucked them a 20 for the bit. Loved the girls accent though, perfect blend of indian and australian ^.^
You still hack it very well, Tony. And the sound is excellent. Makes a big difference to people who are deaf, and need to use earphones and even subtitles to assist. Few video progs reach this standard of professionalism. Keep going!
I never thought Parramatta was that interesting… I have to reassess and walk in my ancestors shoes. The Eels have an even more impressive stadium now and they didn’t need to burn down the old one or win a premiership to get it.
Would be interesting for us non-Aussies to hear more about local snacks, drinks and foods, especially those influenced by Aboriginal dishes. The 'Winery' stories are nice, but they all seem to blur together. And we can do without the Vegemite, tell us about 'Shapes', Lamingtons and Bundaberg'...
Lel he is too much like my dad, I love him. They just don;t understand that its not a charming thing anymore, "dad you shouldn't call women sweetheart over the phone anymore" He is a jolly happy old man and just wants to see people smile, it's sad to see how aweful men ruined something nice. I cringed through and I cringe whenever dad does it to somone he doesnt know.
The Los Angeles Angels baseball team is The The Angels Angels. And there's a place I read about that's named Hill Hill Hill Hill but in different languages. In one language, it's Tor.
Fascinating stuff from Robbo, he gets into the "interactive experience". I mean just grabbing the pork chop off Pok Chopra, sitting in his best Sunday apparel, with his family, eating Sunday Lunch, and seeing the little Pom Goblin, steal his chop, and then eat it in front of him, it would be heart attack material for the "Little India" day-tourist. Apparently there used to be even true-blue Aussies go down L.I. and chuck down some khaki colored Chicken Tikka & Sambal Curry, but there was a botulism episode, and after an "inspection", where they found cats & dogs hanging in the cool rooms, some of the curry houses popularity, started to lose it's "oily gloss". It also happened in Campbelltown in a Chinese restaurant, with peoples pets disappearing quicker than if Pennywise himself was going for late evening walks around the streets. The whole hog, of going into an "ethnic enclave" in a very heavily targeted immigrant "street or couple of streets" is a little disconcerting, can you imagine, going out of your way, walking into a foreign enclave, and then ordering a hotch-pot special surprise dish, scoffing it all down, and later trying to digest it, and then, this is the "the money shot" - you get-out your hard-earned cash, and pay the curry-slurry. They kill-the-pig, eat it, talk it, brag it, give you the scraps, and talk turkey, Khyber Passes & Baboo. I recently went to Parramatta Westfields, the big shopping center in the heart of Parramatta, it was like an episode of Starwars, it was a surround-sound "SIMULTANEOUS CROWDING OF PUBLIC SPACES" - I bought a small orange juice in the Coles next to the train station, and had a rather rude and obnoxious, foreign looking fellow, run at my arm, that was holding the OJ, and bump my arm hard enough for it to fall on the ground, but since I had been training, doing arm curls, reverse arm curls, triceps pushdowns, and push-ups, I held on. The funks indoor climbing classes I had done in the past also helped to teach the arm, and the hand, to grip onto things. Parramatta Westfields looks like it's been colonized.

Mental health isn't something to be sensationalised. Yes technically it can be described as 'insanity', but not only is this offensive, it diminishes how awful it is to live with mental illness. And you can't say someone is 'a bit bipolar'. Very disappointed.
I think it was being described as it was back in the time. Instead of "a bit bipolar", "might have", "maybe been" would have been the right wording but I don't think he was trivializing it at all, just used the wrong word for an assumption, we only know of the dudes actions through history where the idea of mental illness didn't exist.
@@MizzzFizzz He said "Nowadays I suppose we'd say he's a bit bipolar". He was intentionally giving a modern day example of the illness he'd just described. This issue is that this description IS offensive to people with bipolar and other mood disorders.

I have to admit I cringed when tony took a piece of that family's meal. Unless it was staged you just don't do that, lol.
Yeah, that meal looked like it cost a lot of money lol
Je suis tout à fait d' accord avec vous...
Of course it had to be staged, some folks have fought over less…😅

'The NSW we know today' - yeah, still full of graft and corruption LOL
“You’re a real Australian girl aren’t you” sounded kinda weird...?
Probably because he expected an accent that wasn't Australian.

So, what was "The dark, secret illness?"
Haven't watched it yet but by the first few minutes it sounds like bi polar was the secret illness...and dementia later it sounds
Cirrhosis?
He was likely bipolar. He talks about it near the beginning.

I completely agree. Very badly handled, extremely derogatory to everyone who has experienced mental health challenges.

You can be a bit bipolar, it's official name is cyclothymia.

@@jamesjoy4636 You're right, I didn't pick up on the nowadays, we still got some growing to do.
Tony grabbed someone's food, he pushed a girl with a dress unto the ground & he took a woman's bike. And...that's entertainment folks. 🥴
He is so full of life XD I come here half for the history half for him
They should do one on Blacktown
That poor girl thrown on the ground by Tony... trying desperately to keep her dress down! Her face turned bright red, and so would mine. Lol
Seen it! 🤔🇦🇺
