  Joining Clancy and Wendell in the studio today is an icon of Sydney, and a driving force behind the revitalisation of the city's nighttime economy. Nahji Chu, better known as Lady Chu, has been at the forefront of hospitality for more than a decade, with her Kings Cross Restaurant one of the most popular on the strip. From humble beginnings as a Vietnamese immigrant to opening the iconic MissChu takeaway that revolutionised food delivery, Nahji has been doing things her own way even when it rubs up against the archaic laws of councils and governments. She talks us through her journey, the obstacles she bashes through, plus the friends and enemies she's made along the way.

  Did the White Australia Policy End Slavery? (featuring Ryan Butta) 26.07.2026 44min

  One of the most conveniently forgotten chapters in Australian history is interrogated and mapped out this week on Betoota Talks. Nobody wants to imagine that our sunburnt larrikin nation was built off the back of slaves... But a lot of it was. It's not a culture war, it's a historical fact.  This week's guest, historian Ryan Butta, has compiled all of the old slave trade routes, ships, ports and beneficiaries in a fascinating and deeply disturbing new book - titled 'Blackbirding' - which is the term used for the kidnapping of Pacific Islanders who were then sold as slaves on the Australian mainland.  In fact, Townsville is named after Robert Towns - a very wealthy blackbirder from Sydney's Eastern Suburbs.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  Betoota Talks - Bill Shorten: Yes here he is, Big Billy Shorten. 29.06.2026 48min

  We spoke to Bill about a whole range of things from how current Treasurer Jim Chalmers is a shameless plagiarist who has pawned Bill's signature policy ideas off as his own, such as putting the dog up property investors and making tech start up guys quiver in their sneakers. Also returning money to workers and other woke rubbish like that designed to be divisive. As much as Bill wanted to let sleeping dogs lie, we didn't let him. Espeically on the university sector, now that he's compromised by being a Chancellor of the so-called Canberra Uni that they call a university.  So for some raw opinions and an empty promise to award Errol a Doctor of Letters, listen now.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
