00:00Of course, I've been a journalist now for nearly 15 years and I've been reporting on
00:04Indigenous Affairs for a really long time, which is my ultimate passion, but actually
00:08to bring new things to the couch and all the wonderful people we have here from Australia
00:13and internationally love this program, love our audience so much, the rapport we have
00:18with our audience and I'm just so excited and I can't wait to get stuck in, but one
00:23negative is I'm going to miss Lisa so much, but you will not be too far away.
00:27Oh no, I'll still be floating around.
00:28I'll probably just be upstairs.
00:29We have this wonderfully talented First Nations woman fronting a national breakfast news program
00:37and that is super important.
00:39Yeah, it's really important for my mob, particularly my mob here in Victoria, who are just super
00:43amazing, and I didn't grow up watching any Aboriginal women on TV, so it's really lovely
00:48and also, you know, to sit alongside Tone and see all the work that he's done and the
00:52kind of the blackfellas we're bringing onto the program, that's exciting for me.
