Uncle Kutcha Edwards interviews Uncles Archie Roach and Jack Charles while they drive around Wurundjeri Country in Fitzroy, Melbourne in a format inspired by James Corden's Carpool Karaoke.
These improvised conversations with celebrities in cars have become very popular and this is a good example of the genre. The concept may be simple but the production is slightly more complex, with several camera angles, post-production work and good sound quality.
The production manages to keep a light, friendly feel without trivialising the stories Archie shares, including about being stolen from his family as a child.
