Description:

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are advised that this episode mentions the names of people who have passed away.

Governor Macquarie uses military force to effectively end the Sydney Wars. We also wrap things up and conclude that the history I learned at school was not accurate.

We also pay tribute to John Landy, the second person to break the 4 minute mile, who has passed away.  He is also famous for helping Ron Clarke to his feet in the 1956 Australian mile championships. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4LZK5YbJkYQ
