Joe Hildebrand is an Australian journalist and host of the daytime television program, Studio 10.

Joe started his career as a cadet journalist at the Australian Associated Press and worked his way up to Editor at Large at News Limited which he admits is basically a fancy way of saying he can write what he wants.

He’s appeared as a commentator on television programs including Q&A and Paul Murray Live. And also had a brief stint as a drive radio host on Triple M with Matt Tilley.

In this episode Joe Hildebrand talks about The Chaser boys influence on his career, how a badly photoshopped photo of Jeff Kennett helped get him his first job, the pressures of being expected to be the "guy who knows everything" and why the best way to ensure a long career in media is to channel Bart Simpson.
