Nothing on TV

My podcast, Nothing on TV, ransacks Trove Newspapers, the National Library of Australia’s online repository of digitised historical newsprint, to present stories from an era when there was – literally – nothing on TV.

Nothing on TV has itself become a relic, stalled at 15 episodes. But if you haven’t yet listened, you can find all the episodes here or by clicking on the TV at the top of the page.
