Sonia Randhawa

Wednesday, 28 August 2024 - 4:00pm to 5:00pm

What a delight to have the lovely Sonia Randhawa on the show this week. Sonia is the current producer-presenter of 3CR's Wednesday Breakfast, but she has been around community radio a lot longer, starting up a pirate station in Malaysia some years back when she lived there with her Punjabi father and English mother who met in Liverpool in the 60s. Sonia spent her childhood between Malaysia and England, attending boarding school where activities included flying planes and eventually making her way to Oxford to study Philosophy, Politics and Economics. Sonia went on to working as a journalist for The Sun in Malaysia and completing a doctorate about the representation of women in Malay's newspapers. These days, Sonia works for The Sortition Collective who organise citizen's assemblies for whoever needs them. She was a warm and lovely guest and much smarter than us, we are sure. Thank-you, Sonia!
