You might be wondering the same thing we are: Where’s the guidebook for all of this grown-up stuff? Whether opening a bank account, refinancing student loans, or purchasing car insurance (...um, can we just roll the dice without it?), we’re just as confused as you are. Enter: “Grown-Up Stuff: How to Adult” a podcast dedicated ...

It's well-known that Britain tested atomic weapons at Maralinga in South Australian in the 1950s, but history has virtually forgotten that weapons were also tested at the nearby Emu Field. In a shroud of secrecy, experimental and unstable atomic bombs were detonated in the outback, and a terrifying black mist spread across the landscape. Why were the British there, what did they do and what lingering affects did the tests have on the local people? Mat speaks to Associate Professor Elizabeth Tynan to find out. Her new book The Secret of Emu Field is available now!
Presenter: Mat McLachlan
Guest: Elizabeth Tynan
Producer: Jess Stebnicki
