Welcome to a new week on The Brew. Phil is back With you today. A great big "thank you" to James Ross for sitting in for the past two weeks, and especially for the fabulous Brew Summer Live Music Festival, featuring all sorts of Hong Kong’s top musical talents. At 12:10 today our sport guy Carlos Escueta wraps up the weekend’s football fun at the Saudi Super Cup. Then at 1240 we’re off to Turkey to catch up with Ocean Recovery Alliance's Doug Woodring, who’s just had some amazing success (actually) in the water, at the Bosphorus Cross Continental Swim. At 1:25 we're Vietnam bound for all the latest from our Bureau Chief-at-large, Neil Runcieman. As usual, join him on Facebook live if you can.

Every weekday afternoon from 12:05 until 2... Only on Radio 3
