Russell Torrance, breakfast presenter, ABC Classic

ABC Classic Breakfast host Russell Torrance joins Savva Savas for a chat from his home in the Adelaide Hills.

Russell had a hard time choosing just three food memories. He's the guy who asks "what do you want for dinner?" while eating breakfast. The Scotsman and tuba player is not only obsessed with food, but also with his mission to make classical music a 'friendlier place to be'.

Find out why he believes soggy chips are superior, why both his late Gran's baked goods are the best in the world, how France features in so many food memories (to the annoyance of his Australian wife) and his weird 'hot-cheese' phobia.

Open about his mental health challenges with depression and anxiety, Russell shares Lifeline (Call 13 11 14), as his social impact cause of note. He encourages people to remember that there's always something to look forward to and that talking through your worries to a kind ear will always help you feel better.
