Virginia Trioli has won not one, but two Walkleys–the highest prize for journalism in Australia–through her illustrious career which spans decades and many eras of politcal and cultural life. It's no wonder, then, that you've never heard a more engaging storyteller. Virginia became a household name as the host of the morning news, and famed political panel program Q&A, and currently delves into the essence of creativity in her program on the ABC, Creative Types. Her book, A Bit on the Side, is out now with Pan Macmillan Australia. In it, Virginia reflects on the “side dishes” that make life really delicious. The sweet and the sour; the salty, the bitter - both literally through the medium of food, and metaphorically when reflecting on her storied life. We talked how she got her start in the newsroom, some of the most difficult stories for her to cover, and much more. For more of her tales of travel and adventure, as well as some lip-smacking recipes for side dishes, find A Bit on the Side, here.

Brisbane journalist Trent Dalton is no stranger to the power of storytelling in Australia, and he's got a suite of Walkleys and Kennedys to prove it. But when he published his first fictional novel in 2018, even he was blown away by it's success. Boy Swallows Universe has sold millions of copies and there is a Netflix series in the works - and it's been followed up by three more books that similarly endeavour to highlight those lesser-told stories that ring true for many Australians. With Lola In The Mirror fresh off the press, it was the perfect time to bring Trent into the Vogue studio. On this episode of Under The Gloss, Trent joins Phoebe for a conversation that covers all kinds of terrain: the conversations that gave way to his award-winning fiction, the experience of seeing Boy Swallows Universe brought to life on a TV set, the beautiful and complicated woman that is his mother and what the Dalai Lama told him about the meaning of life, This episode of Under The Gloss touches on domestic violence, addiction and self harm, so please listen with care.

“This is an unprecedented moment of restriction for us as journalists - and people in general in Egypt,” says Lina Attalah. She and other journalists founded an independent online news outlet, Mada Masr, in the wake of the Arab Spring. But in these turbulent times, it hasn’t been easy. At Storyology, we paired her up with Peter Greste, the journalist who came to Egypt in 2013 for a “very vanilla” story and found himself imprisoned on trumped-up charges of aiding the Muslim Brotherhood. Conversations from Storyology is a miniseries in the WalkleyTalks podcast, produced by Kate Golden for the Walkley Foundation with help from 2SER in Sydney, Australia.

An amazing tonic for all the hand-wringing about the shrunken attention spans of young people today. Last year BuzzFeed News and the BBC released a joint investigation revealing evidence of tennis match-fixing at elite levels. Heidi Blake, BuzzFeed UK's investigations editor who coauthored the project, tells us how it worked. With a Q&A led by Caro Meldrum-Hanna, 2015 Gold Walkley-winning investigative reporter. This podcast is part of Conversations from Storyology, a mini-series in the WalkleyTalks podcast bringing you the best bits from our 2016 Sydney journalism festival.

Sarah Ferguson is a journalist and author. Last year, ABC television screened her three-part documentary series The Killing Season, which examined the forces that shaped the Australian Labor Party during the recent years in which Kevin Rudd and Julia Gillard led the party, and the nation. Based on Sarah's lengthy and insightful interviews with key political players, and filmed with the drama and style of the Netflix series House Of Cards, it was pitch-perfect television that resonated strongly across the country, attracting around a million viewers each episode. The series further established Sarah's reputation as one of Australia's finest television interviewers and presenters. Since 2008, she has worked as an award-winning investigative journalist on current affairs program Four Corners – which she currently hosts – as well as filling in for Leigh Sales as the host of 7.30 in 2014, and conducting several hard-hitting political interviews during that time. In 2016, Sarah became an author with The Killing Season Uncut. Co-written with series researcher Patricia Drum and published in April by Melbourne University Publishing, Sarah's book goes behind the scenes to candidly reveal the stories behind the interviews with Rudd, Gillard and a host of other key players. I found that her asides into the craft of journalism were a highlight of the book, such as this quote: "The business of persuasion is a fraught one for journalists. Persuasiveness is one thing, bullshit is another. You have to understand your subject intimately and what their purpose is in speaking on camera. I prefer candour but it's not enough by itself. And you are not friends, although it can appear that way. The line you shouldn't cross is usually only visible when it's behind you." When Sarah was on a day trip to Brisbane in early May, we met at her inner-city hotel room so that I could ask her a few questions before she had to dash off to a radio interview across town. It was a thrill to be sitting across from one of the country's most formidable journalistic brains; within a few minutes, she had called me out for incorrectly attributing a quote from the book to her, rather than Julia Gillard. Our conversation touches on how her writing style has developed across her career; her early writing influences, including her love of poetry; how she comes up with ideas for her Four Corners stories; why she posted a Julia Gillard quote above her desk; who she turns to when she's having trouble with a story; and how she decided to open a live budget night interview on 7.30 with a particularly devastating question for then treasurer Joe Hockey. Sarah Ferguson is an author and ABC journalist. In the same year that she worked on The Killing Season, she also wrote and presented Hitting Home, the landmark series on domestic violence. She has presented the ABC's 7.30 and worked as a journalist on Four Corners, where she won four Walkleys – including the Gold Walkley in 2011 for 'A Bloody Business' – the Melbourne Press Club Gold Quill Award, four Logies for most outstanding public affairs report, as well as the George Munster Award for Independent Journalism and the Queensland Premier's Literary Award.

In Egypt, Al Jazeera journalist Peter Greste and others have been arrested for reporting both sides of the story – and this is getting lots of attention, as it should. But what of media workers in South East Asia being routinely punished for questioning authority or putting forward an alternative point of view? In Vietnam and Myanmar, journalists, bloggers and human rights activists are routinely jailed for their reporting. In Cambodia, journalists reporting stories counter to powerful interests have been assassinated and in the Philippines, journalists are often killed for doing their work, making it one of the most dangerous reporting environments in the world. In Thailand, there's a culture of media self-censorship over the monarchy: websites discussing politics are shut down by the government and laws like lese majeste and the computer crimes act are used to intimidate and punish journalists. And in Malaysia, the public discourse is controlled by state-owned media, which allows for little real political debate. Join the Walkleys for a talk featuring two of Australian journalism's leading international reporters. Zoe Daniel and Peter Lloyd share the experience of reporting from around the world.
