The tiny town with a big problem
Manage episode 439173123 series 2343564
Deep in the snowy mountains is a tiny town called Nimmitabel. It’s almost smack bang in the middle of Sydney and Melbourne, it’s got a school, a pub, a couple of churches – enough for a few hundred people.
It’s the sort of place you move to start a fresh chapter of life, to feel part of a community, where literally everyone knows your name and drops round a casserole or a jar of freshly made jam.
And Nimmitable is all of those things, but it’s also something else: a place where a man by the name of Andrew Thaler, a serial political candidate and serial pest, is bullying and threatening women.
Today, Jordan Baker on the tiny town with the big problem, the man at the centre of it, and the women who’ve had enough.
