Every weekday from noon, The Brew is a chat and music show. Hosted by Phil Whelan, guests include regular contributors and drop-ins, who span topics from current affairs to cookery, sport, the arts, technology, and music... lots of music.
It’s Thursday on The Brew. At 12:10 it’s Brewed in HK, with tracks chosen by Mark Rawson today. More original music from Hong Kong’s bands and artists, including brand new releases from Houseplants, Flare, and Cornelia. At 1:25 it’s 'Sports and All Extra' with Danny Hicks. You’ll get two this week as it’s the Link Hong Kong Open. The US$2 million Asian Tour event is on at the Hong Kong Golf Club, and the first round is already under way. Danny is live from Fanling with the latest. Join him on Facebook live if you can.

It’s Tuesday on The Brew. At 12:10 biz futurist Morris Miselowski joins us live from Melbourne, to ask whether Apple has over-extended itself. Last Wednesday it launched only the high-end iPhones — Pros this Friday, the foldable later next month — and the ordinary model isn’t due until spring. Then at 12:40 Jarrod Watt is in with this week’s Aussie news and some more great music. Among other things, he'll talk about Albanese’s new Digital Duty of Care laws, letting people opt out of social media algorithms and fine big tech more than a hundred million dollars if they don’t play ball. The White House is already making noises about it, so Canberra and Trump, plus the platforms, look headed for a proper head-on. Finally, after the 1 o’clock news, will be catching up with our friend, the one and only ocean saving Doug Woodring from Ocean Recovery Alliance, for all of his latest. Join Doug on Facebook live if you can.
