An Aussie Netflix series has become one of the most watched shows on the platform. Since 'Apple Cider Vinegar' was released just over a week ago, it’s been streamed nearly four million times and made it into the top five of the streaming service’s global charts. The miniseries follows the rise of Australian wellness blogger Belle Gibson, who claimed she’d been diagnosed with a malignant brain cancer. Gibson told her followers she was treating her cancer with a strict health routine of organic foods, coffee enemas and juices. She amassed hundreds of thousands of Instagram followers, secured a lucrative book deal and landed an Apple partnership. But… she never actually had cancer. Today, we’re exploring the true story behind Netflix’s Apple Cider Vinegar and the rise and fall of Belle Gibson.

Hosts: Zara Seidler and Billi FitzSimons
Producers: Orla Maher and Emma Gillespie
