In this special episode of Ouzo Talk, we sit down with Publisher of The Greek Herald, Dimitra Skalkos, to celebrate the masthead’s 100th anniversary. From its humble beginnings rooted in the Australian Kytherian community to its evolution into a national voice for the Greek diaspora, Dimitra reflects on the publication’s rich history and enduring cultural significance. She shares personal insights into the legacy of her father, Theo Skalkos, whose vision and dedication helped shape the paper into a trusted institution, and opens up about taking the reins herself – including all the challenges that went with it. As the only Greek newspaper printed daily outside of Greece, The Greek Herald continues to inform, connect, and champion Hellenic identity across generations – making this episode not just a celebration of the past, but a powerful peek into the future.
