The Monocle Weekly

The Monocle Weekly

This edition of the Monocle Weekly comes to you from London and joining us in the studio is Australian restaurateur and chef Bill Granger. Having left his considerable mark on Sydney's cuisine, Granger is here to talk about exporting food models and what other countries can learn from antipodean service culture. To mark the end of the Frankfurt book fair, we have Roger Tagholm who as well as being a contributor to some of the world's best-known media brands, is freshly back from his 21st trip to the publishers' gathering. Still on a bookish theme, we have BBC presenter and author Gavin Esler on the line to talk to us about his latest book. All this, and the usual culture and comment from Monocle's culture editor Rob Bound, editor Andrew Tuck and host Tyler Brûlé.

About the Monocle Weekly

The Monocle Weekly is a mix of smart discussion, previews, field reports and feature interviews. From our studio in London and our bureaux in Tokyo and New York, Monocle's editors focus on the horizon and explore the looming stories within the five areas that define our editorial agenda: global affairs, business, culture, design and consumer culture.

Hosted by editor in chief Tyler Brûlé, The Monocle Weekly also offers fresh angles on stories in the current issue and delivers in-depth follow-ups from past assignments. Culture editor Robert Bound is a regular with his weekly playlist of artists established and obscure.

Editor Andrew Tuck pulls in contributions from our correspondents in far flung corners and moderates debates. And from Tokyo and New York editors Fiona Wilson and Ann Marie Gardner deliver features and perspectives from Asia and the Americas.
