AdeLOL - Adelaide & SA's Hilarious History

In this special episode of AdeLOL, Tom and Dan undertake the self-guided Rundle Mall 'Above the Canopy' tour looking at some of the historic mall buildings during SA History Month.

It gets pretty off topic pretty quickly, and we end up at the Richmond Hotel for a Vale Ale Pale Ale just looking for Polites signs.

You can do the tour yourself here.

This AdeLOL explores the hard and truly tragic life of Elizabeth Woolcock, the only ever woman to be hanged in South Australia.

A story that really isn't funny, but we try our best with accents and Neighbours references...and it comes off as being really insensitive. For the second time in AdeLOL's short history, we apologise.

Beer of the episode was Fox Hat Lusty Lager.

A man who needed no introduction, (except to Tom, who was unaware of his existence) Bob Francis.

He brought the Beatles to our town, did outstanding work for charities and law reform, rolled carpet straight outta' Brompton, and wanted to see hung men at Adelaide Oval. Have a listen, Dickbrains.

Beer of the episode was Goodieson Brewery Pale Ale.

"Did you know South Australia was the only state not settled by convicts?" said the South Aussie to the rest of the country, implying that we're better than everyone else.

Whilst it is definitely true that we're the best state, it's not entirely true that we were ever convict free. From Edward Wakefield to the First Superintendent of Convicts, there's certainly a few surprises along the way in this story.

Beer of the episode was Mismatch Extra Pale Ale.

It's not the first time that Blackfriars Priory School has had to cover up an erection, so enjoy this mini episode about some local modern history full of LOLs.

Tickets to our 2018 Adelaide Fringe Show available here. Like a statue at Blackfriars, please come.
