This is the story of 1976 as deep dived by Bobby Mair visiting the true story of Middleweight boxer, Rubin Carter whose retrial was upheld after he was convicted for murder in 1967 leading to a hit song by Bob Dylan that began a campaign to free him and a Golden Globe winning and Oscar nominated film starring Denzel Washington, also the Great Bookie Robbery happens in Melbourne, Australia and India are rethinking their marriage laws. We take several detours in this episode as Bobby has never heard about the dingo eating the baby story, and Lord Lucan comes up again, Red is excited about his special coming out this weekend so has dressed as a samurai for the occasion whilst Bobby attends his baby and his dog who are disrupting the recording of the pod throughout the episode.
