Mums Mysteries & Murder
We're two Mums living in Edinburgh who are obsessed with true crime and mysterious happenings, so obsessed we decided to start a podcast! Each month we take turns to tell stories from our homelands - Cheryl Scottish born and bred where haggis is NOT actually an animal and Marti from the land down under where no prawns have ever been thrown on a barbie, it needs to be said! So, if you want polished, professional true crime then this is not for you, maybe try Casefile. But if you love true crime and mystery like us & you can't stop talking about it, give us a listen! Its not big or clever but it is entertaining.

There's a lot going on in this episode so strap yourself in!
Today - if you're listening on the day this drops we're celebrating five years of Mums Mysteries & Murder... with our 70th episode and we've got a big announcement!
Before we get into the mystery, we're sharing some exciting news about the future of the podcast!
Then we're heading deep into the Australian Outback to investigate one of Australia's strangest unsolved mysteries: The Marree Man.
Stretching over 4 kilometres (2.5 miles) across a remote desert plateau, this enormous geoglyph appeared without warning in 1998. Visible only from the air!
How was something this enormous carved into one of the most isolated parts of Australia without anyone noticing? Was it an elaborate art project? A military prank? The work of an eccentric artist? Or is there another explanation entirely?
