Peninsula Talks with Brendon Telfer
Show Description
Wednesday: 11:00am - 1:00pm
Peninsula Talks is a weekly deep dive into the issues, ideas and people shaping life in Frankston and across the Mornington Peninsula.
Each week, the program explores the big questions facing our region — from politics, planning, health and transport to culture, community and the local economy.
The conversations are wide-ranging and inclusive. Sometimes it’s decision-makers and policy leaders in the hot seat. Other times it’s the people directly affected by those decisions — residents, advocates, business owners and community voices.
Broadcast live for two hours each week, Peninsula Talks is where the Peninsula and Frankston voice their issues — informed, curious and engaged.
Presented by Brendon Telfer, the program is a trusted forum for discussion, accountability and connection.
