In the opening episode of Nakkiah Lui's latest podcast First Eat, we hear three generations bonding over porridge. Lui and her mother - Gomeroi woman Jenny Beale - are feeding baby Lux, who gently coos in the background. I have rice porridge all over my beautiful white shirt, and my mum's got it in her hair," narrates Lui.

In another episode, we hear the clang of pots and pans as Lui and Beale - who grew up on a mission - cook rabbit stew, one of Lui's favourite dishes growing up.
