About World Class Voices

World Class Voices sits down with the people at the very top of business, leadership, sport and service, and gives them the time to tell the whole story.

Why it exists

Headlines and short clips rarely show how the world's highest performers actually think.

World Class Voices exists to go deeper. Each episode sits with one guest for as long as the conversation needs, to find the patterns, mindsets and decisions behind an extraordinary career, and the common threads that run across people who reach the top in very different fields.

The show is produced by WCV Media Group, an Australian-born media company. Season One featured ten iconic Australians. Season Two, AMERICA, brings the show to the United States with ten American icons, premiering November 2026.

The Host

Sam Hope

Australian entrepreneur, founder and host of World Class Voices, based in Los Angeles.

Sam left home for Sydney at seventeen, bootstrapped two software products to market, partnered with Forbes Australia to build the Forbes Club nationally and launched World Class Voices with ten of Australia's most iconic figures. He then relocated permanently to the United States to spotlight America's greatest voices.

Born in Townsville and raised on the Gold Coast, he brings the same question to every conversation: what does it actually take to reach the top, and stay there?
