Food Bytes with Sarah Patterson

Former Australian cricket captain Greg Chappell was the pre-eminent batsman of his time, representing Australia in 87 Tests and 74 one day internationals.

This week, Greg joins us on the Food Bytes podcast and proves to be one of our most fascinating guests to date.

Greg talks candidly about the highs and lows of his cricket career, including the impact on his family. He also tells us why he follows a pure vegetarian diet. And his dream dinner party guest list is one of our most amazing yet.

As for this week’s Food Poll – we’re pitting cheese against cheese, with blue up against Camembert.

Singer and songwriter Jimmy Cupples is one of Australia’s biggest rock voices, and he’s our special guest on the Food Bytes podcast this week.

The very engaging Jimmy waxes lyrical about everything from Scottish stews to sherbet lollies, gives us a thoroughly entertaining account of his appearance on The Voice and chats to us about what he’s up to these days with Blues-infused rock band King Canyon.

This week we also feature a hilarious catch up with William McInnes – the man who famously created the dim sim pizza, the popularity of which continues to soar!

Our Food Poll this week literally compares apples with apples – do you prefer the Granny Smith variety, or Pink Lady?

Bill McDonough is known and loved as a member of the iconic rock band Australian Crawl, and we are stoked to have him as our guest on the Food Bytes podcast this week.

Bill recently released his compelling memoir, Sons of Beaches. He talks to us candidly about life, tragedy, band politics, his horrendous health scare, fractured relationships – and how he gets along with James Reyne these days. Oh, and we also find out how Bill shapes up in the kitchen!

And the ultimate comfort food is front and centre in the Friday Food Poll this week … are you a fan of macaroni cheese?

Aussie actor, writer and singer Peter Phelps is a very familiar face, and he’s our first guest for 2024 on the Food Bytes podcast.

As we chat about his hugely successful career in both TV and feature films, Peter reflects on his days in shows like The Restless Years, Sons and Daughters and Stingers, and shares with us the fascinating tale of how he came to appear on the first season of Baywatch.

We also talk about life, his love of dark chocolate and how he shapes up as a cook (you’re going to love his kitchen tip!)

As for the first Friday Food Poll of the year – let’s just say we’re treading very ‘gingerly’ with this one.

What a delightful way to finish 2023 with well known and loved radio personality Jane Holmes. Is Jane as skilled in the kitchen as she has been on the radio during her illustrious  career? What have been the highlights and what has she got planned for the future? All these questions  and more answered in this very engaging chat. 

And the food poll puts the chickens out to roast rather than roost and asks which supermarket poultry is your preferred- Woolies or Coles? 

A very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Kev & Sarah.
