Highly recommend.
Though he’s skipped the bit about the time Skase tried to steal Bargearse’s capricciosa - we don’t like to talk about that time in life.

This show has been an enjoyable blend of nostalgia and the corporate true crime genre.

‘The Chase for Skase’, the penultimate episode of Skase: Fall of a Tycoon, is out now!

You have no idea how much editing was required to make it sound coherent. Actually, I reckon you do.

He was the biggest thing on the footy field.

Thoroughly enjoying @markhumphries.bsky.social ABC’s Skase podcast.
Especially Warwick Capper literally reminiscing about the 80s.

01 | The Confidence Man - ABC listen Christopher Skase wants to be a corporate cowboy. He’s handsome and elegant, with Hermes ties and flowing locks. His wife Pixie is beautiful, in a 1980s kind of way, with bouffant blonde hair and more diamonds than a high street jeweller. Together they take on the Melbourne business establishment and start building the Qintex empire.

We we're long overdue for a Skase overview. Any chance for an Alan Bond and a John Friedrich overview to complete the trifecta of Australian conmen @markhumphries.bsky.social? https://www.abc.net.au/listen/programs/abc-rewind/abc-rewind-skase-fall-tycoon/105744504

Aaaaaand it’s here! Ep 1 of the series our team’s been working on for months - Skase: Fall of a tycoon. You’d’ve been living under a rock if you didn’t know who Pixie and Christopher were in the 1980s. They had it all - fame, money, glitz. Until they didn’t. www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...

I have to give Binge credit for the great @mitchmctaggart.bsky.social and @markhumphries.bsky.social shows, but they appear to be making up for the loss of the HBO content with a record number of Hitler, Mussolini and shark docos.

The #SIZZLETOWN mug, as seen in @markhumphries.bsky.social excellent 'SOLD!' doco (on Binge and Foxtel), is back in stock, at sizzletownpodcast.bigcartel.com/product/new-...

Cool!

I’m hosting Talking Pictures on tomorrow’s Insiders and my guest is journalist and Fourth Estate host Tina Quinn.

I forgive you.

Thank you to everyone who’s watched SOLD! And big thanks to everyone who’s contacted me about it; it’s been lovely to read your messages. Now streaming on Binge and Foxtel

"When did the Australian dream go from owning your own home to owning somebody else’s?"

The question speaks volumes, not least of the moral corruption of our politicians, with many of them given over so deeply to this notion of prosperity, when the price is insecurity for others.

Mark Humphries: ‘When did the Australian dream go from owning your own home to owning somebody else’s?’ The TV satirist on the two-tier system of housing in Australia, his journey into comedy, and being held up at knife-point while working at a video store

Our documentary SOLD! is now streaming on BINGE.

Everyone needs to watch @markhumphries.bsky.social's documentary: bsky.app/profile/mark...

Housing fixes most of society’s serious problems. Just watched #sold by @markhumphries.bsky.social
Hilarious and depressing at the same time. How does he do that?

‘Get angry about it’: Mark Humphries’ doco Sold! unpacks Australia’s housing crisis In his new one-hour special for Foxtel and Binge, the satirist meets celebrity realtors and squatters – and puts Alan Kohler in a bathtub – to explore our toxic real estate obsession

This excellent doco by @markhumphries.bsky.social & co does exactly what it says on the packet (and contains a tiny easter egg for #SIZZLETOWN fans). www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...

Sold! Who Broke the Australian Dream? review: Humphries tackles housing | ScreenHub Australia - Film & Television Jobs, News, Reviews & Screen Industry Data Surprisingly moving and justifiably riled-up, Sold! delves into Australia's ongoing housing crisis.

Mark Humphries' housing special SOLD! is suitably angry about the state of home ownership in this country, which doesn't mean he can't get a few jokes in as well. Here's my review for @screenhub.bsky.social : www.screenhub.com.au/news/reviews...

Thanks Sharyn. The ABC had their chance. Murdoch no longer owns Binge/Foxtel for what it’s worth.

Loved chatting with @stephenarussell.bsky.social about our documentary SOLD! which arrives on Binge and Foxtel tonight!
