Many thanks to Caroline Chan at RTHK for inviting me onto the show, and to Phil Whelan, the host of Morning Brew. As you can probably hear, I was a bit nervous at the start of the chat, but he's great at getting the conversation going, then keeping it moving along.
You can visit the RTHK website for more information about the Morning Brew show.
