The Agenda: A father, a daughter, and the shared love of music that brings them together

Episode notes

A love for music can start with a song playing at home, a parent strumming a guitar, or simply watching someone do what they love. But when a child discovers that same passion, does it naturally become part of who they are too? On The Agenda, Hongbin Jeong is joined by a father-daughter duo who share more than just family ties - they share a love for music. From busking on the streets to creating songs together in the studio, their journey shows how a passion can be passed down, nurtured, and transformed across generations. So what role do parents really play in shaping a child's interests? And how can they encourage a passion without steering it? Meet songwriter Eric Ng and his daughter Lyla Ng .
