The Sunday Show

The Sunday Show with award-winning journalist Ed Finn is your weekly journey into the heart of global travel and culture. Broadcasting every Sunday at 7pm, Ed brings together voices from across the world — travel experts, storytellers, and locals — in insightful conversations that reveal what truly makes a destination come alive. Now in its third season, The Sunday Show offers listeners a front-row seat to the world’s most fascinating places — from the café culture of Europe to the vast landscapes of Canada, the national parks of North America, and even the icy extremes of the Arctic and Antarctica. From relaxing cruises to island escapes, from city breaks to foodie adventures. Whether you're planning your next big trip or just dreaming of one, Ed explores how travel connects us all — and how to get there with ease, whether you’re travelling on a budget or in style. It’s smart, inspiring, and filled with practical tips and engaging stories.
