Over a Glass: Sally Evans (Sydney Royal Wine Show) - fostering progress through competition and education

Author: A Deep in the Weeds Production May 14, 2026 Duration: 48:31
The Royal Agricultural Society of New South Wales stands as a marker of our nation’s evolution and agricultural history. It has fostered progress through competition and education since its foundation in 1822. The Sydney Royal Wine Show plays an integral role within this legacy. As Australia’s oldest wine show, this year in 2026, it celebrates its 200th anniversary. I am delightful to have Sally Evans join me today, as a board member, to speak to the show’s lineage and enduring importance. ⁠https://www.rasnsw.com.au/competitions/food-beverage-and-produce/wine/⁠ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER FOR EXCLUSIVE ARTICLES, NEWS, GIVEAWAYS AND BEHIND THE SCENES ⁠⁠⁠https://deepintheweeds.us6.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=d33e307cf7100cf947e2e6973&id=d17d8213f5⁠⁠⁠ Follow Over a Glass ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/overtheglasspod⁠⁠⁠  Host Shanteh Wale ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/shantehwale/?hl=en⁠⁠⁠ Executive Producer Rob Locke ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/⁠⁠⁠ Executive Producer Anthony Huckstep ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/⁠⁠⁠ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS ⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork⁠⁠⁠ Over a Glass is a wine & drinks podcast with Shanteh Wale exploring the personalities, stories and landscape of the wine and drinks business.

Anthony Huckstep pulls up a chair in kitchens, dining rooms, and farms across Australia for Deep in the Weeds-A Food Podcast with Anthony Huckstep. This isn't about surface-level reviews or trendy recipes. Instead, each episode digs into the real stories and hard-earned wisdom of the people who make our food culture tick. You'll hear chefs recount the pivotal failures that shaped their careers, listen to producers explain the visceral challenges of farming with the seasons, and get honest reflections from front-of-house staff on the beautiful chaos of service. The conversations are intimate and meandering, often uncovering the personal philosophies and quiet obsessions that drive people in this demanding industry. By focusing on these substantive dialogues, the podcast reveals the connective tissue between the grower, the cook, and the guest on the restaurant floor. It’s a series for anyone who believes food is about more than just consumption-it's about community, craft, and the sometimes messy business of hospitality. Produced by A Deep in the Weeds Production, this ongoing audio documentary offers a genuine, unvarnished listen, straight from the source.
