    An ordinary Aussie, a big bank, an outrageous true story....

    Luke 'Milky' Moore is a fun-loving Australian country boy who transforms into a high-rolling playboy, a prison inmate, and a successful criminal lawyer - all because of a bank error.

    Milky's story starts in a dark place. After the 2008 stock market crash, Milky loses his job, life savings, suffers serious injury in a massive car accident, and struggles to make his house payments. And of course, his girlfriend leaves him. But at this lowest point, his bank accidentally throws him a lifeline. It starts automatically making house payments without deducting money from his account and if he withdraws money it isn't detected. Milky thinks fate has given him a second chance. He moves to the Miami of Australia: the Gold Coast and the money just keeps on coming. Two million dollars later he's the king of the party scene where every night it's strippers, fast cars, drugs, and new friends. But how long can the party last before the law catches up to him?

    Narrated by comedian Jim Jefferies, hear this great Australian ripping yarn directly from the people who lived it. This unique comedy documentary will have you on the edge of your seat, laughing, crying, appalled, and entertained, but dying to hear how much deeper s##t Milky can get himself into.

JJ is perfect for this story!

As a fan of comic crime fiction (Westlake, Hiaasen, Dorsey), this caught my eye. Sure, it’s got a familiar story arc but the JJ deadpan comic style combined with Milky’s own infectious energy is a blast. Throw in a bunch of quirky details and - at the root of it all - a thoroughly modern circumstance with a delicious legal twist, and you truly have an outrageous story that’s so much fun. And it leaves the reader wondering “What if that happened to me?” for days afterwards.

Short and worthwhile podcast.
