This week on Tuesday Lunch, Joy Ng joins the show. As one of the former owners of Sydney’s iconic The Bearded Tit, we talk about the bar’s legacy, its impact on the local creative scene, and what comes next after its doors closed last month.

It’s a conversation about growth, taking the scenic route, and the possibilities that open up when you take a chance.

Sometimes, the best stories begin with a spontaneous decision. What started as a “eat, pray, love” adventure turned into a powerful reminder of how small and connected our world is.

In today’s Tuesday Lunch, we explore that very sense of connection - through the lens of community radio. Emily Roadhouse is a fellow community radio host from Calgary, Alberta (Canada), whose station channels the same energy and spirit as our beloved fbi.

Together, we dive into the magic that happens when local voices find their frequency, the importance of community radio, its role in amplifying diverse perspectives, and how policy changes like Bill C-18 are shaping the future of independent media in Canada (and possibly beyond).

Tune in for stories about finding home in unexpected places, and why local radio matters more than ever.
