Description

Reporter Edwina Storie needs to get from Queensland’s Sunshine Coast to Sydney. It’s usually a 10-hour drive, but in the rain, in the floods, who knows? She’s got a delivery to make and a secret to keep, and nothing’s going to stop her.

The best story you'll hear this week. Days Like These is a podcast told by one person telling the tale of how they lived through something wild. Sometimes funny, sometimes scary, sometimes both. We've got sharks and pirates, justice and injustice, drugs and recovery, love and hate, spies and thieves, triumphs and disasters. All we need from you is less than half an hour each week.
