A podcast for Greeks of the diaspora. Join Sydney-based Greek-Australians Tom and Nick as they bring the Ouzo-fuelled conversations of ‘kaffeneia’ the Greek world over, right to your ears.

Recorded live on Monday 16 March 2026 at The Brighton Sydney as part of the Greek Festival of Sydney, Ouzo Talk returns with its second in-person debate in front of a packed live audience. This time, we focus on Greek identity and whether it's defined by faith – or whether it exists beyond the Church, with the motion being; 'Is Greek identity and Orthodoxy one and the same?'
Academics Dr Vasilis Adrahtas and Dr Vicki Petrakis go head-to-head with lawyer and CEO Mr James Arkoudis and comedian Anthony Locascio in a fearless clash of ideas, history and lived experience, followed by a fascinating audience Q&A that is sure to make you think, and rethink your position... again and again.
Expect sharp arguments, humour, and moments that challenge everything you thought you knew about Greek identity and Orthodoxy.
The audience didn’t just listen—they voted. Where do you stand?
