Tim and Kevin head to Perth to meet businesswoman, arts patron and National Living Treasure Janet Holmes à Court AC inside her extraordinary private gallery housed in a former paint factory.
Janet’s gallery is open to the public and her belief that art should be seen by everyone is central to the generosity she shows as an indefatigable champion of the arts in Australia.
This is an illuminating conversation about the intersection of art and architecture, the unique nature of Western Australian culture, and then some totally random stuff that is also going to make you happy.
Janet is fab. You will love her.

Tim and Kevin head to Canberra to meet architect Shannon Battison, a former President of the Australian Institute of Architects, who spent a considerable amount of time designing the perfect home for her family.
Then she threw a rather large spanner in the works and bought them a new one — a 1970s experimental house designed by her mentor.
To make matters worse, it’s quite small and needs substantial repairs, or, to be more precise, it’s partially falling down.
What’s driven her to take this on? Which member of her household talked her into it? Is this both the best and worst thing she’s ever done?
And why do iconic houses seem to hypnotise people and leave them powerless to their charms?
This is your chance to find the answers to these questions and more.

There’s quite a large amount of your emails in the Manila folder, and it’s time to get through them. We have questions, corrections and some rather bonkers observations.
We are also looking to launch the most ridiculous extension to the podcast that anyone could imagine. A rather large small clue is in the graphic above.
Rate, subscribe and give yourself a high five.

We all want our cities and our neighbourhoods to be better, but what can we do about it?
Tim and Kev head to Fremantle in Western Australia to meet Kate Hulett, a community-minded individual who isn’t afraid to step up and have a crack at making change.
She’s passionate about Fremantle and her state and, with great positivity, advocates for better housing, more thoughtful and sustainable development, more public space, and a city that works for the people who live in it.
She’s a very good human.
