The Great Aussie Pub Directory & TV Show
If you are travelling this country no trip would be complete without dropping into some of the Great Aussie Pubs that line the outback and sometimes sneak into the towns and cities.
Great Aussie Pubs is about the pubs that celebrate our unique Aussieness and capture the spirit that is Australia.
Compiling a list of these great pubs - and checking it twice - is what we do.
We're even creating a TV Show about it. Watch this space.
Introducing Jon Hart
Jon Hart is an award-winning print journalist and radio announcer who hijacked his family's trip around Australia to focus on pubs.
His 6-month trip saw him travel up the guts of this great land from Adelaide to Darwin then down the east coast from Cairns to Melbourne, encompassing 27 pubs in total.
Now that his wife has forgiven him he is getting out on the road again, ditching the go pro for a professional crew, and asking his (once) famous uncle Glynn (clinging to his fading memories of Big Gig stardom) to come along for the ride.
Glynn Nicholas is not as funny as he used to be...
Glynn Nicholas began his performing career as an acclaimed and award-winning busker, performing for many years in Adelaide’s Rundle Mall.
Since then his one-person shows and plays have received outstanding acclaim and have covered an array of performance styles including theatre, opera, musical theatre, cabaret, vaudeville, radio and television.
He was a regular ABC’s Big Gig ages ago and prior to that he used to interpret whatever Humphrey Bear was saying with uncanny accuracy. He was also nominated for an Aria (Best Children’s Album) in 1988 but was crushed like an ant by The Wiggles.
These days more of his time is spent as a Director, writer and theatre Producer, recent productions including “Song Contest – the Almost Eurovision Experience” and in 2018 will direct a new production of Certified Male in the USA.
