In this Hot Debrief episode, Matt talks to Simon Bouda AM, a veteran journalist with a career spanning over 40 years. Simon talks of his deployments to East Timor with the Australian Defence Force, Fiji covering the violent coup where he was almost shot and later his role in the rescue of the last surviving victim of the Christchurch Earthquake in New Zealand. Simon reflects on the importance of maintaining trust with those people around him, including the emergency services workers and victims throughout his journalistic career.
Simon also talks about his work as an ambassador for Grace's Place - the Homicide Victims Support centre where he proudly hosts the 'Ride For Justice' combining his passion for motorcycles with yet another community support activity he is involved with. Combined with his career as a journalist, this community work has had him recognised in the Queens Birthday Honours with the Member of the Order of Australia medal.
His support of the Police and Emergency Services is evident in his roles with Police Legacy and more recently being appointed as Editor of the Australian Police Journal. Simon has also authored and co authored a range of books including Deadline, Man's Best Friend and Survival.
