To raise awareness for the ongoing bushfire disasters in Australia, Relic has re-recorded and remade Episode 5 – “The Ballad of Lasseter’s Gold”, originally posted in 2017.
In 1931, a gentleman named Harold Bell Lasseter informed the Australian Worker’s union that he’d discovered a seven-miles-long vein of gold in the outback. An expedition was mounted to survey what was possibly one of the largest gold finds in history. But after the quest ended in disaster, the truth behind Lasseter’s Reef remains questionable. Who was Harold Lasseter? Did his reef exist?
NOTE: Australia is experiencing an unprecedented amount of forest fires during its spring and summer. It is now predicted that this will be an ongoing issue until drastic measures are implemented. Please consider donating to the charities found in the description of this episode.
