Lawyer, broadcaster and author, Jon Faine (Apollo and Thelma) shares the astonishing true story of legendary strongman Paul Anderson ‘The Mighty Apollo’ and his sister Thelma, the pioneering publican of the ‘Wanda Inn’ at Top Springs in the Northern Territory. Their twisting tales move from Depression-era slums of Melbourne to the Australian outback. Via the improbable route of these two originals, Jon reckons with his own story, his own history and Australia's past, present, and future.
