Dominic Knight

Podcast host, co-founder, The Chaser

Dom Knight was one of the founding editors of The Chaser, a satirical newspaper launched in a tiny Glebe terrace in 1999. He became one of its destroyers in 2004 after the group belatedly acknowledged that the newspaper medium had died several years earlier. He worked on nearly all of the Chaser’s TV, stage and radio projects including The Chaser’s War On Everything, CNNNN and the Age of Terror Variety Hour tour, and was only arrested once. 

In a belated bid for respectability, he hosted Evenings on ABC Radio across NSW and the ABC for several years, and is still frequently heard across the network. His books include Strayapedia, Trumpedia, Disco Boy, and the forthcoming Dictionary of Terrible Ideas. 

Dom currently co-hosts the daily Chaser Report podcast and is teaching and doing a PhD in media and communications at the University of Sydney.
