This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed.

 

The Sharpies were probably Australia's most fashionable gang in 1960s/70s Australia.

 

Their clothing was custom made from European tailors and their hairstyles were unmistakable.

 

Our guest for today's episode is Author and Social Worker, Julie Mac. Julie herself was a proud Sharpie in the 1970s, and she's here to tell us who the Sharpies really were beyond the violent headlines.
