About They Might Become Giants

From the publisher's feed

Alex Williams is a massive fan and ambassador for the GWS GIANTS. His NRL loving mate Brandon McClelland is a sports fanatic, born in Western Sydney and knows nothing about the AFL. Taking his GIANTS ambassadorial duties far too seriously, Alex has now bullied his actor mate Brandon to do a podcast about their journey to discover the best pubs and eateries in Western Sydney to watch away AFL games. With episodes dropping every Wednesday, we see the AFL through a new lens as Brandon questions the culture and obscurities of the game. This isn’t a pod where we just sit and chat through the weekly match ups, it’s built around social activities and engaging with our friends and audience. Let the search for the best ‘Away Venues’ in Western Sydney begin!
