Drive - Friday

Aired on Friday 17th July 2026, 4:00PM

Let this improbable duo of Emilie and John drive you home every Friday between 4 and 6pm. Emilie is a talented writer and broadcaster from France who now calls Sydney home. John is a deft hand with media and has a passion for community radio. Each week they talk local government happenings with one of the Mayors from the eastern suburbs councils. As well they speak to the editor of The Big Issue Magazine, Amy Hetherington, about each new edition, plus food and wine expert and all-round bon vivant Mike Bennie about what to eat and drink this weekend. Every Friday get your share of jazz and fun facts about France and Australia as John and Emilie take you along for your drive home.
