Sydney, Australia is an iconic city, full of unique things. But why does the Harbour hog all the icons? Grassroots stories of Sydney’s inner west, in sound-rich, playful, compact documentary shows. It’s local history done different! There’s the Witches Houses of Annandale – the green asylum of Callan Park – inner west street art – Boomalli, Australia’s first city-based Aboriginal artists cooperative – Reverse Garbage, a creative reuse centre in Marrickville – bandicoots and bikes of the GreenWay – and dogs of the inner west. Hosted by long-time inner westie and ex-ABC TV presenter Bernie Hobbs. Produced by award-winning podcast and documentary producer Jane Curtis with support from Inner West Council. Mixed by award-winning sound engineer John Jacobs. Artwork by Dylan Tonkin.
