    What a raw, down to earth, no bullshit interview!
    Kudos to you, @Spanian for allowing Roberta to just let her flow with her story and not cut her off or try to project a narrative!
    Would love to see more of this kind of content from you- not taking away from your other content... love it!❤
    Rock on Brother with much love to you🫶🤙

    Spanian is in such a unique position to bring out certain stories from the other side of the tracks which other hosts would never be able to initiate or handle properly. This podcast series is shaping into an important gem of untold Aussie history.

    She chose to deal drugs and that put her children at risk, but she wants to blame others, like the police.
    She says Carl was a beautiful person, well is this the one who ordered 10 murders? That is a complete coward. That is why he was topped in prison. If I am wrong please tell me why I am wrong. I am only going by what was in the press and your admission you were selling drugs. Was Carl making drugs or not?

    Roberta, as a mother myself, I am so very sorry to hear about what happened with your mother. I cannot understand it either, I'd take a bullet for my child too. I can't imagine the heartache you experienced at such a young age. You didn't deserve that. You deserved a mother that cherished you and loved you unconditionally and I hope you are now that mother to yourself. You seem so balanced and happy which is wonderful. Thankyou Spanian for interviewing Roberta. She's such a strong, courageous, inspiring woman and Mum. I didn't know much about her b4 now except she was Carl William's wife.

      The reason dhs weren't involved is because her children were well cared for and adequately provided for. Do you honestly think for a minute they wouldn't have tried to take her kids.
      Children are abused and neglected by people. Different kinds of people from different walks of life with a plethora of excuses.

      yeah she certainly knew the score going in. Corrupt cops, yep it's always going to happen when disadvantaged people take the only road they have as an option to go down and we have to have police deal with it. Carl Williams was no great bloke. Just because you and your kids loved him, he was part of the misery drug addiction causes for many, many other families.

    Roberta is an amazing woman. After watching this, and the small amount of time listening to her speak without a reporter baiting her and antagonising her, making accusations and then expecting a decent interview or "story".. then portraying her as a violent and dangerous person.. makes me so furious. A woman who has been through the worst comes out stronger than anyone who has come up against her, and still holds her head up and loves her kids unconditionally... She deserves so much happiness and success.. the underbelly producers and creators should be held accountable for defamation of her character and the subsequent years of social stigma associated with the show.. why would they not speak to her and get it right!?

    Very interesting interview, glad to hear Roberta's insight, life from her perspective. I love to listen to people's experiences and see things how they did
    Roberta has definitely lived a very tumultuous and fast paced life. From the lowest of lows to the highest points in life, she's endured it all. The underworld of Melbourne is fraught with danger, money, drugs and greed. For her and her children to survive through the hell storm of that, is extraordinary.

    The whole life of crime is the gronkiest thing I've ever heard. I remember Spanian's video regarding Hood Life: The Truth about his own story and how he started and how by the end, he had no real friends, he was alone, no lisence, kid taken away, criminal friends talking smack and laughing at you and then hating you if you actually success at something, then sitting in a prison for years to reflect and then finally sacked the whole life of crime to become a better person.

      some ppl got shit hand in life and they gotta do crime till they can make it better for everyone around them...other ppl especially ppl in rough hood street neighboorhoods, like we got alot of that in the inner cities here in US, wether its NYC, chicago, houston, LA, miami, it doesnt even have to be the big city hoods, all over there are young men catching felonies for dumb shit when they are in high school or even for legit crimes when they get little older, you have possession of illegal gun in america you catching a felony and alot of those dudes in the hood carry illegal guns when they in high school and until 21 cuz you can legally even "own" one until you hit 21... so they catch a felony for gun or having/sellling drugs, BandE or robbery cuz they mom or brothers or sisters need money or food... once you have a felony on your ecord here its like damn near impossible to get that shit off, the spend weeks sometimes months going back and forth you gotta be there in person half the time and they still may say, sorry but we feel like doing that is not the right choice right now... nobody cares it was for a right cause or whatever... now they see you as a numnber or a typical hood person.
      at that point, with a felony it makes it wayyyyy more problematic to get a job, they not supposed to do this but employers will ask if you ever been convicted of a felony or crime, your talking about flipping brugers at MCDs when all your homies are selling drugs up the block making 500 in a day its like why work at mcds wehn you got all this available to you

    A lot of people have "dogged" Roberta not understanding what she went thru as a child, had a child as a child and was the best mum she could be as nothing was handed to her on a silver platter and as a mother u will do what u have to to ensure ur child has the best and knows they r loved and the most import thing in ur life and she has done that with all her kids. People who judge have no right as even walking past someone's house and liking a plant in their garden and thinking I'll grab a bit of that to plant in my place is theft, trespassing and I'm sure the cops would have other chargers to throw at u if caught and the person who owns the plant wants charges pressed ....So how does that make u any different from Roberta as ur a criminal who just hasn't managed to be caught yet. So those who r quick to judge please sit and look at ur own life b4 judging and condemning others! And I agree with u Roberta as people always dig in others backyards cause they're to shit frightened to dig in theirs as to what they may find, so it's easier to dig in someone else's yard. I hope by now u have another grandchild and that the day comes when ur son tells u he loves u as u deserve it ❤ xo
