Podcasts can be incredibly niche affairs, allowing creators to indulge in their obsessions without chasing mass market appeal. Case in point is comedian Tim Ross' latest, House Stories; a short run series on the rarely seen tapestries of the Sydney Opera House. When I mentioned how niche the subject matter was, Ross laughed and pointed to the recently wildly successful Netflix documentary, My Octopus Teacher, as evidence that "a great story is a great story, despite what it’s about." - read more at SMH Tim and I talk about modern art and architecture, the Opera House, his podcast, and the Sirius towers in The Rocks. ..and that f**cking Octopus movie.   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
