LiSTNR Original Podcasts Head of News and Information, Melanie Withnall, said: “This Arvo in Sydney builds on the LiSTNR newsroom’s high quality local news offerings, alongside our national news podcasts such as The Briefing. We are also thrilled that LiSTNR is attracting outstanding newscasters, including multi-award-winning journalist Richard Baker who will deliver a series of original investigative podcasts for LiSTNR in 2023.”

This Arvo in Sydney host and journalist, Sacha Barbour Gatt, said: “I’m really excited to be working on This Arvo in Sydney. Our city has been crying out for a daily news podcast that provides an afternoon catch-up on the news headlines, together with a spotlight on issues relevant to Sydneysiders. We are all about diving deeper and discovering interesting stories.

“Already we have found and told stories that highlight the challenges facing NSW couples wanting to adopt and the alarming rates of licence suspensions of Sydney drivers. Sydney is an incredible and varied place to live with so many stories to tell and I feel privileged to be part of the team telling those stories.”
