28 years ago, almost to the week, I arrived in the Canberra press gallery. I am deeply grateful to so many people for the opportunities I've had and for the generosity that has been extended to me by mentors, colleagues and readers.

Playing a part in establishing @GuardianAus with @lenoretaylor has been the greatest privilege of my professional life. But it's time – after nearly three decades – for a new chapter.

Feels like a good time to observe that @bairdjulia and @ellenmfanning are two of the very best in the business. Curious, cut-through and collegiate hosts of a show that strove to platform conversation over spectacle, shrillness and superficiality.

Striving to meet those values remains so important because contemporary culture rewards different imperatives. I never had the pleasure of doing The Drum with Dan, but I hope it goes without saying he's an ornament to the profession as well.
