So powerful that he speaks open and raw about his experience with rape as a boy and man. We need to shine light on this darkness and i appreciate this man and his authenticity. Bless him and may he be divinely protected always 🤲🏼🙏🏼🙌🏼
Mark, it’s good to see such a high level business man with success be so down to earth and talk to anyone of different circumstances as if they are mate of yours….. down to earth keeping it true and inline which makes a person. Just like Graham, dark history, success, tough and no big noting and glory just being humble fair and respectful. Be it crime money or legal business both these blokes have done it and are still around to tell stories because of the way they carry themselves.
I only caught this yesterday and what a brilliant conversation. As always Mark, great work and as for Graham, what a bloke. Had me in stitches so many times , then felt so much compassion for him. While he was in the wrong side of the tracks, I was completely enthralled with his stories. Off to buy his book. Congratulations and thanks to both of you .
This is one of the best podcasts out. Easily Australia's best. Such a complete man interviewing people from all walks of life about such a broad range of subjects. No pretentiousness or condescending on Marks part either. Really worthwhile...
this man is an indigo soul here to help shift humanity for the better, thank you for your story and being brave enough to say you could see and talk to spirits
This is just brilliant. I’ve watched and interview with him before, his down to earth attitude and frank attitude is really refreshing. The interview is great, especially how he gives him an open space to talk. This is real stuff
Im sorry Graham to hear what you went through as a kids absolutely disgusting , my father past 1978 and a family member did the same to my 10 yr old brother . This effected him all his life and at 36 yrs of age he committed suicide . So l feel your pain ❤️. Thanks for opening up All the best
Just watched - the website is broken and you can't buy the book because it wont take you to the checkout. Feel like Graham is missing out on sales here. I want to buy the book, but I'm also a web developer who could help him fix this problem. Mark, please put me in contact if his current web devs cant sort it out soon.
No matter what anyone is to say about Abbott Henry I think he's a brave man to talk about his past life when he was set on his life past that maybe set him on his life path it truly touched me I would be proud to shake his hand and look him in the eye
I came from the Eastwood/Epping area. Never bumped into Graham (grateful for that), but I do remember "JB" and saw him regularly out on the prowl of a night. He was a solicitor, and certainly did a bit of soliciting after hours around Epping. Boronia Park was similarly 'infamous' for those that assembled there after hours. I worked weekends / nights in that area and saw quite a bit of stuff going on. Terrific interview though, and good to see a bloke get onto the straight and narrow and be able to tell the tale.
I am an old Eastwood boy , Boronia park at night was a game to us then ...Plus up at Beecroft ,park on Pennant hills rd. i remember Abo , Stokes amongst others .
I was a teenager working with my Dad during school holidays in a warehouse on Botany Rd. We went for a counter lunch at the Iron Duke Hotel. Sitting there eating away happily, when Dad jumps up and says, 'we're going'. I was still eating my minute steak sandwich. Sitting at the bar was Neddy Smith and Abo Henry. Months later, there was a shooting at the pub. Dad use to say there was pistol shooting range under the pub, but never got to saw it.
NO. It's almost always a bad soul combined with harsh upbringing. It takes many years for this kind of person to learn to "live with yourself". Took me almost 30 years. Maybe I was just lucky not to be around "life changing" amount of money in others pockets at that time. And made decent amount of money as "one man job" marketer and webmaster. But when confronted, I still turned into nutjob, ready for battle with telescopic baton in one hand, and boxer in other. Luckily for me, every vocal loud toughguy just backed off. And luckily for me, I knew not to confront people much more vicious than me. But I've got broken nose, and some more beatings. It's a learning curve ... where if you're smart enough, you wanna distance yourself from people like you. And live a nice life with nice people. And be nice, because it doesn't cost anything to help old lady carry a bag. Or lending someone in trouble money, without chasing them down the street for wig every day. You can't even imagine how much some people born bad can feel proud of themself when they do a good deed.
You guys speak alot of truths & agree bigtime esp about what's caterized as crime & what's not. My conclusion.. [alot of us found out the fun (some say hard) way & agree that the best way to learn is thru life experiences. I pulled stumps out of sth akl early 20s, now 59, have worked my way thru 108 countries across 7 continents (yep did a yr in Antarctica), done some crazy shit & met some loose units] conclusion.. there's way more bigger & badder crims in WashDC & #10 than there is on the streets of Syd, BKK, Joburg & Rio combined. 👍🏼Last man Standing. 🙏🏼 ✌🏼 🍻
Excellent podcast Mark. Out of all the podcasts Abo has done, he has never mentioned his sexual abuse. His story is nearly identical to Snoee Badman on Spanians podcast. It seems like such a common theme with hard blokes.
@gameratwork Snoee Badman did a decade for meeting other gay men to engage in consensual sexual activity with, after which he'd violently assault and rob them. His papers leaked not long ago. He's not who he claimed he was
Mark wow that was amazing talk, the more I listen to your interviews… umm I think I want to hear your interview- can you please reverse the microphone and tell us more about you and your history?
For all the savagery and truly nasty shit this guy's done you can't help but like his no bullshit old-school mentally. They were very different times back then. Some of the story's of kings cross in the 80s my dad told me are beyond belief. Glad your enjoying your older, wiser years Abo. Thanks for the great stories.
Let's remember, if Abo and I say "if" ever hurt anyone they were all associated within that life. Unlike the druggies who rob and bash old ladies and break and enter and trash houses
Yeah tailor made high waisters from Sydney Greenstreets, double buckle Crestknit shirt or 3 stripe Benson, Suave shoes no socks was the grouse clobber back then.
Lost me at the sex worker being shoved in the back of a truck and pimped out driving around. No Bouris organised crime and the pimp were not protecting her. These channels all have one thing in common ‘me me me’ and absolutely nothing about the people they’ve terrorised and destroyed.
To hear an elderly hardened man like that have his voice break when speaking about the things he was subjected to as a young bloke is heartbreaking. That’s the lasting damage that sexual abuse can have on someone. I can’t wish a nasty enough fate for people that fuck with kids
What I find pathetic is some of the older blokes did hard time for pot a drug that today is pretty much excepted in the US as a a social drug most states have legalized
@@jw-vx8im mate I'd join that if Abo was there. Give him room & don't fanboy the guy as I suspect he wouldn't appreciate that sort of behavior. Just to have a beer & share a laugh maybe would be good
My life is a lot like Abo Henrys i was a Crim my whole life , Abuse in boys homes church homes , Done 34 years in and out of homes and jails , Got pinched for one murder one attempted murder and rightfully beat them, Done a lot of bank and jewelry robberies, I also found out when i was 55 that i had Aboriginal blood in me part of the stolen generation . It was actually hidden from us because of the welfare system in them days they always took Aboriginal kids from their families . My life was a nightmare. Set up a few times by police , verballed and loaded up . Done about 12 years where i didn't commit the crime . I changed my name because i actually give that life away . I knew Abo in and out of prison , There is not really many crims i don't know . Seriously it is a putrid life and one i would not wish on anyone. That does not mean i didn't have a lot of fun along the way and lived the high life , Its good having thousands of dollars in your pocket every day . The cost is when you get caught its not worth it . The price is to much. I'm 65 now work my guts out every day and bring home my wages every week , It is a much better life . As for Abo He was a better person then Neddy Smith , Ned was a putrid dog killed many of his friends for money , But Abo can say he never give anyone up but i don't think that was entirely true . I wish him the best but he was not as staunch as he makes out
what you calling him a Dog....i reckon you are lying about your time in the nik? cause if you did,calling someone a Dog without showing proof,it means you are a coward...
Good luck with the rest of your life Pablo. Follow your indigenous heritage. Like you final line, not as staunch as he made out. I have wondered about that too.
Wasn't too bad a doco you know what I mean? I just don't get how he said earlier in the interview that back in his day they'd kick down your door and blow your fuckin head off then later in the interview he says they'd never do anything to you while you're on your house because your house is your castle. Must be full of it you know what I mean?
Keep up the good work Mark. Just let the guest speak a bit more, you have a tendency to interrupt at key moments. Your the platform for the guest and a great active listener, that is your strength. "Where do you see your self now" was a great question but you interrupted straight after asking it. Perfect example of just letting the guest speak. You have great foundations to create a really special and successful podcast just need a bit of polishing and it has huge potential.
Please stop celebrating this psychopath. The Psychobabble is painful. He hurt a lot of people and is not justified. Many of us suffered and didn't turn it into ugliness.
This guy is so proud of what he has done. It is sickening. This is a guy who never had any interest in living an honest life. Stealing and hurting others is how he earnt his money.
So powerful that he speaks open and raw about his experience with rape as a boy and man. We need to shine light on this darkness and i appreciate this man and his authenticity. Bless him and may he be divinely protected always 🤲🏼🙏🏼🙌🏼
Of all of the interviews with Graham , this would have to be the best. Relaxed, honest, intelligent and respectful.

Abo was a gent compared to that dog Neddy Smith.
Dark history? Success?
S
I saw real strength when he began disclosing his sexual abuse experiences. A big man for sure. He’s broken his chains and has found freedom.
There needs to be a movie on this man life. He is the real deal .
He said he is talking to people.
💯
@@brockiestephosaussielife read the book about Chris Flannery it’s very good 👍
@@Aussiecookin it would be big in Australia 🇦🇺 and probably in America 🇺🇸 because that kind of movie 🍿 sells.
Hey Joe, I could add some amazing episodes to that movie. Started in the cross in 78, saw a lot.
I can't agree more about the ice. I was on it for 8 years. today is 1year of sobriety for me
Keep up your positivity
Good work buddy, keep it up 👍
Why did you need ice?
Well done i gave up grog the best thing i ever did.
Well done!
A compelling and genuine conversation, thanks to both Mark and Graham.

Great interview you have changed my opinion on Graham immensely hats off to you 👍
I came from the Eastwood/Epping area. Never bumped into Graham (grateful for that), but I do remember "JB" and saw him regularly out on the prowl of a night. He was a solicitor, and certainly did a bit of soliciting after hours around Epping. Boronia Park was similarly 'infamous' for those that assembled there after hours.

His life would make a great underbelly movie in its own right!
Reminds me of some friends,they know what way up is.!
He has happy eyes.
I think deep down he’s a good soul who was dealt a bad hand.
NO.

Oh,& i don't know the bloke askin questions,maybe a "blogger"(think that's what they call it 🤷🏻♂️)soap actor?
Heroin was nothing compared to todays ice problem
In his day this bloke would shit on the " Gangsters " Who run on the streets today , probably still do it
If your mum isn't Aboriginal your family can be traced through your fathers name.
Sounds more like James Bond than a thug
He doesn't like been called Abo!
Yeh because they stink

Surely you’re joking…

In all these conversations where t fcuk is Jimbo Stanley he saved mines
Neddy punched the shit out of this flog
