In episode seven of Dish, Kate Gibbs talks to Australian Tim Ross. He may be best known for his work on TV and radio - you’ve heard of Merrick and Rosso - he’s Rosso - and at different times he’s hosted both the number one breakfast and drive shows in Sydney.  But comedian Tim Ross has always had a passion for architecture and design. Over the last six years, he has performed his live Man About the House show in architecturally-significant buildings and homes all over the world. Today Tim Ross talks about the echo chamber of open plan in our homes, offers some advice to renovators, and considers the rise of kitchen technology - like screens on our fridges -  versus hiding away mum as kitchens used to be designed. So what’s the perfect kitchen?  We talk about the demise of entertaining, especially now, and why it’s important. We think people entertain, but do they - there’s the pressure of our houses not being worthy, things needing to be Instagrammable. But the truth is we’re just happy to be invited. We forget that the most important thing is to be a good guest, a good friend. What does that even mean? Tim Ross tells us stories about architecture, design, and coming together around the table - including the time he entertained Rick Stein - who’s an excellent guest. Finally, we  divert to hilarious confessions about things we will eat off the floor.  Tim Ross on Instagram Kate Gibbs on Instagram
