    I loved having this convo with Brandy, it was class to hear his insights on the umpteenth coming of Sydney's ever-evolving hub of entertainment, Kings Cross.

    There's plenty of drinks chat as usual and Brandy manages to beat the system, have a listen to find out how.

    Cheers from Leon 🏝️
