Show Notes
Remember the time the entire nation held its collective breath for 49 seconds?
The Sydney 2000 Olympic Games welcomed the world into the new millennium and we all enjoyed 15 days of world-class athleticism. Many medals were won by Aussies at these game, yet none more significant than the Women's 400m battle that saw Cathy Freeman triumph... so why not celebrate it with a documentary about her journey and what that medal meant to a nation still struggling with its indigenous identity?
Join Jo, Dan, Brooky, and Molk as we give you some great tips, hints on shows to watch and those to give a wide berth to as we land squarely in the TV Bingebox!

More from TV Blackbox/TV Bingebox
It indeed was a really big show - an immersive experience instead of buttoned-down sitdown presentation. Nine came out all guns blazing (just don't talk about radio or Karl Stefanovic) and made sure we knew they at least think they are "still the one".
It's a little bit late and we've all got stuff going on, but here's the highlights of BINGE's 2027 announcements and Molk's impression of them and the evening KAYO/Foxtel Upfront event. There's literally a couple of surprises and the rest you could guess yourself or the team at TV BLACKBOX have already published the announcements. Just go and watch HIGH COUNTRY season two. It's awesome.
In the first of the 2027 Upfront season podcast Molk casts his eye across the content schedule being offered, the quantity and volume (or lack thereof) of new programs coming, and the event itself.
With the 2026 Logies run and won, Steve Molk chats with Mark Humphries on their impressions about the event, the Top 70 Australian shows (as voted by the Australian public), Robert Irwin's tilt at hosting, the Hall of Fame inductees, and Sam Pang winning the Gold Logie. Always great to chat with Mark - hear him on ABC Sydney, or grab a ticket to Mark's Broadway Supper Club events! https://broadwaysupperclub.com.au/
Goodness gracious - two podcasts in two weeks? This is almost makes it a regular thing again. The problem is SO MUCH happened since the last ep that Molk had swimming around in his brain he just needed a chat with you, his fellow TV fanatics.
