  • Meet the man digging up Australia's biggest secrets

    Meet the man digging up Australia's biggest secrets
    Dec 20 2024

    Richard Baker is one of Australia’s best investigative journalists, who has spent decades chasing stories.

    The Walkley award winning journo is the host of LiSTNR's Secrets We Keep: Pray Harder, which explores a secretive religious group in Geelong where every aspect of members’ lives are tightly controlled by their hardline pastor.

    In this chat with Antoinette Lattouf, Richard explains why he doesn't have any social media, what life is like as an investigative journalist, and how dangerous it is for whistle blowers in Australia.
