“Four people start this adventure every year to make an attempt to get to Alaska, but usually everyone quits in the first year. Most people quit because they say they fall in love.” - Lucy Barnard 

Our guest on this episode of TFM is on a mission most of us would only dare dream about - to walk the length of the world. Yup, WALK. 

Currently on her 22nd pair of shoes, Lucy Barnard joins us with her trusty companion Wombat from Denver, Colorado - where she's prepping for the final part of the journey, which'll take two more years. 18 months if all goes to plan. 

On the menu is; King Crab empanadas after a week of misery, freshly cooked beef after stumbling upon a cottage during an alpine blizzard, Wombat's free food at markets on the Inca Trail, plus a bunch of insights you'd only hear from someone attempting this incredible feat.  

Lucy's social cause is CLIMATE - a community led initiative to monitor alpine temperature extremes which Lucy is ambassador for, carrying a MeteoTracker with her to measure the weather along her journey.

"Every recess, every lunchtime, I had detention. I had to write on the board "I will not interrupt the class, I will not interrupt the class, I will not interrupt the class..." - Rae Johnston 

Our guest on this episode of TFM is a science communicator with a twist. A Wiradjuri and Greek woman with a little Welsh in the mix too, Rae Johnston is as warm and enveloping as her homemade (and grown) spiced apple cake.

On the menu is; roast lamb that knocked eight years of being vego on the head, mum’s triple choc mud muffins, Greek feasts on dad’s side of the family, lessons on bringing a new partner into a single-parent family, where her love of horror movies and gaming came from, and why there's nothing more depressing than a sad, flavourless meal. 

Rae's social cause is UNICEF because kids are the most vulnerable people in humanity and we have a responsibility to protect them. She's a UNICEF ambassador (just like Angelina Jolie!) and is host of their podcast NextGEN.

“It’s always so lucky to provide something to someone that’s nourishing to their soul, that brings comfort, that brings joy (hopefully)”  - Justin Narayan

Former youth pastor and winner of Masterchef Justin Narayan is our guest on this episode of Three Food Memories. If you LURVE food, this one is for you - although you will have to listen to people eating it at the same time, so there's a warning for you. 

Justin's recently released book Everything is Indian started out as a google doc where he'd write down recipes for his friends, and his menu and this conversation are influenced heavily by these recipes...you'll also discover what makes Justin pass out cold...

On the menu; Fijian Lovo, Chicken curry, and dine-in family restaurants Pizza Hut, Sizzler, and Chan’s Chinese.  

His social cause is World Vision's 40 Hour Famine

“I do think one-on-one conversations are more likely to change people” - Rachel Griffiths 

Aussie icon Rachel Griffiths is best known internationally for her Golden Globe-winning performance as Brenda in Six Feet Under, and starring alongside Julia Roberts in My Best Friend’s Wedding.

But for us downunder, she’s the rockstar bestfriend of Muriel Heslop, Rhonda Epinstall in Muriel’s Wedding. 

Rachel’s latest show Madam is about a woman who opens an ethical and feminist brothel after finding out her husband was cheating on her. It’s a funny and boundary-pushing series which everyone should watch and Rachel stops by to tell us all about it, make up some words, explain feminomics, spill the beans on where in the world has the best food on set, why a degustation is torture, and why she’s a coffee Karen but a great kitchen designer - along with some deeper thoughts on the state of the world at the moment which are insightful and reflective.  

On the menu is; mangoes from grandmother's garden, hot chocolate in Venice, and dinner on Amtrak with the Amish 

Her social cause is Back to Back Theatre Company - an Australian theatre company that engages with disabilities on stage. The company is based in Geelong, Victoria. It creates its work nationally and tours around the world. The work produced by the company explores questions about politics, ethics, and philosophy in humanity.
