Niche is a monthly podcast about unique interests hosted by Joey Lovato and Alec Meyerhoff, and based out of Reno, Nevada. Each episode Niche explores the world of a different topic that has a culture that has been built up around it. From the popular to the downright weird, Niche tries to find why people like what they like, and showcase their interest, hobby, career, fascination, activity, movement, or obsession. Between regularly monthly episodes we will release Niche Talks, which are interviews with interesting people, and update episodes.

Really interested
Just listened to the Home Brew episode (recently got into it myself) and thought it was great. This is such a good idea, and a really polished production. Cant wait to see what else you do.
