On today's 123 Show we're talking about relaxation and to how to de-stress with Martha Collard, the founder of Red Doors Studio. That's at 1.30. After 2.30, Cruzanne Macalligan joins us for our midweek audio column. This week we're talking about fear. Why do we experience it? And is it true that by facing our fears we can conquer them?

Welcome to Wednesday on Morning Brew. Our friend Janice Jensen from Nevis Animal Speak is still in the recovery hutch wearing a cone of shame after being unwell, so she’ll be back with us next week. Get well very soon, Janice. At 10.40 we meet artist Philip Colbert who’s here all the way from Scotland for an exhibition. He’s been championed as a contemporary pop master by prominent figures such as Charles Saatchi and Simon De Pury, and is frequently referred to as the godson of Andy Warhol. At 11.10 we'll meet Happy Gabby, or her creator at least, author Joanne Chan. Happy Gabby is the child in everyone, endlessly curious about reading, music, and culture. She's proving to be quite the hit and very effective in teaching and inspiring children. After 11.30 RTL France’s Philippe Dova will be back with more reports of all things French here, plus of course music from more aging French rockers. Our Pilates classes will resume next week..(9:30am-1pm, email morningbrew@rthk.hk )

On Thursday's Backchat,  we talk about outsiders and extradition.The CE has said foreign intervention in matters relating to the fugitive law amendment made it reasonable for the CPG to speak out on the issue. She claims that foreign governments or organisations had attempted to damage the relationship between the CPG and the SARG and even recklessly attacked the judicial and human rights systems on the Mainland, escalating the matter to the level of the "One Country, Two Systems" principle. With Germany granting refugee status to two Hong Kongers, and the background of the whole US-China trade dispute, where should we draw the lines defining 'interference'? Is it reasonable for Chambers of Commerce here to  comment on issues that affect their members and business here? Both pro- establishment and pro-democratic groups have lobbied in the U.S. Is one side inappropriate? If we throw open the doors and  view issues as totally international, how can we avoid becoming part of superpower political conflicts? After 9.20, gay ads back.
