In Room 68 of A Room With A View, we sit down with landscape architect and creative mind Daniel Baffsky — a man whose story is as much about family as it is about design.

Room 66 - Larry Emdur

There are few names more recognisable – or more genuinely loved – in Australian television than Larry Emdur. From early mornings on The Morning Show to game shows and everything in between, Larry’s career has spanned decades, making him a constant presence in Australian living rooms. But what’s most interesting isn’t just what he’s done – it’s where he’s going next. In this episode, Larry joins us for a conversation that’s as surprising as it is heartfelt, sharing his latest passion project: The Ben Buckler. What started as a creative side venture has become something deeply personal – a reflection of his roots, his community, and his search for meaning beyond the camera lights. We cover a lot of ground – television, life in hospitality, growing up in Bondi, and yes, a shared appreciation for good things and good people. It’s one of those conversations that reminds us why stories matter and how passion keeps us young. So, pour a glass of The Ben Buckler, settle in, and enjoy a very special chat with the one and only Larry Emdur. https://thebenbuckler.com
