'Brunch' is packed full of radio goodness. We've got human interest stories, social issues, wellness, the latest on what’s happening around Hong Kong, and plenty of your favourite music.
On Brunch on Wednesday, 18th March. After 10:30 we'll be joined by acclaimed Irish singer-songwriter Eleanor McEvoy, the artist behind Only a Woman's Heart - still the best-selling album in Irish history. She'll talk about her three-decade career and what she's been up to while performing here in Hong Kong. After 11am, we turn to Hong Kong's creative scene. We'll discuss Art House Tai Hang, a new cultural hub bringing together architecture, art, and design. Joining us in the studio will be architects Su Chang and Jonathan Ng, two of the creative minds behind the project. And before we wrap up the programme, Radio 3’s Raphael Blet will be in the studio to talk about interesting stories happening in our city and around the world.
