Michael Phillips: The Venturi Effect

Season 3

What happens when you combine 12-months of grieving, a shed-dwelling boomer father, your mother’s ashes, and an 80s tourism relic helicopter? A physics lesson, of course.

This story was told at Barefaced Stories in Perth, the theme of the night was I SH*T YOU NOT, 24 September 2020 at The Rechabite Hall

See Michael’s story on our YouTube channel here.
