Ep 1- Centrepoint Tower Doesn't Exist! With Robbie Thomson

Think you know the name of the tall, golden building in the middle of Sydney? Think again! Tonight on Sydney Tonight not only will you hear just how few people know the real name of Centrepoint Tower (now called the Sydney Tower Eye), but I'll also take you out to a free salsa class held in Darling Harbour that you can get involved with too! And you'll meet Robbie Thomson- lead commentator for the A-League, Socceroos, and Matildas here in Australia on Channel 10 and Paramount. LATIN NIGHTS BY THE BAYThis free salsa class is held every Friday night in Darling Harbour (just outside the iMax). I went along and spoke to Rafael from Go Dance Sydney to overcome my fear of dancing and realise that there is actually a lot more to do in Sydney than some people think!ROBBIE THOMSONFootball commentator Robbie Thomson joined me in the studio to share where the best French food in Sydney is, his first memories commentating football matches in arcades with his friends, and how excited he is for the upcoming season of the A-League with Sydney FC and Auckland sitting on top of the ladder (for now). Robbie has been working in football for a long time now, living in France covering PSG and Ligue 1 before returning home to Sydney to work on the A-Leagues. TIKTOK ENTERTAINMENT CENTREFollowing the news that the International Convention Centre (or ICC) was recently renamed to the TikTok Entertainment Centre (or TikTok Ent Cent for short...) I explored the world of stadium names and how effective they actually are. But it turns out the biggest failure of a name change wasn't a stadium at all, but rather the tallest building in Sydney, the Sydney Tower Eye- a name that nobody seems to know!Sydney Tonight is produced at 2SER studios in Ultimo, Sydney. The show is broadcast every Tuesday night at 7:30pm from Chatswood to Cherrybrook, Blacktown to Bankstown, Parramatta to Penrith! Catch interview clips, videos, and other extra Sydney Tonight content here! If you have a story about Sydney that you think needs to be told, get in touch through the email! This podcast is recorded on Gadigal and Dharug Land.
