Get to know Simon
Over the past 15 years, I’ve worked as a journalist and editor, penning more than 1,500 film reviews, conducting hundreds of interviews, earning bylines in The Guardian among other publications, and also presenting on the ABC. Immediately prior to starting as GM at RTRFM in 2020, I was the Head of Communications & Membership at Student Edge. In 2023 I published my first book, titled BOOK OF THE BANNED: DEVILISH MOVIES, DASTARDLY CENSORS AND THE SCENES THAT MADE AUSTRALIA SWEAT.
On the air, I’m pleased to co-host Movie Squad on Friday Brekky opposite Tristan Fidler and Pam Boland. As GM of RTRFM, I’m honoured to play a part behind the scenes in keeping this station thriving, with the support of an amazing team and this incredible community. Please don’t hesitate to drop me a line or pop in to chat about how we can better share local music, tell local stories, lift the voices of the marginalised and under-represented, and strengthen our social connections. Or, come complain about one of my latest reviews on Movie Squad.
