So… are we doing Jimmy, Nath & Abbie or what? I cannot understand why these “single named shows” need a cohost. Isn’t that the whole point of being the “main star”? Ugly Phil did it brilliantly, so too did Spoonman. ---

Erin needs to be removed as newsreader on 2Day. She just did the 8am news and after every single story she gave an opinion or added her own story to it. She needs to just read the news or be replaced. It’s completely unprofessional. ---

She needs to just read the news or be replaced. It’s completely unprofessional. Why is the host of the show reading the news anyway? You never hear Kyle reading the news or Hamish & Andy reading the news. It’s the same with Sunrise/Today, what’s the point of having a newsreader when the hosts also read news. ---

For that type of show they definitely implemented it first. I remember you would have pre recorded ads and sponsor ads but Kyle and Jackie O started reading them as it was more of a personal touch and their loyal listeners believed them (for some reason) its like affiliate marketing now, but they made a huge chunk of cash doing it and then everyone followed on FM. ---

On what I’m saying is, in my history of listening to radio I remember it was normal ads then Kyle and Jackie O started live reading nearly all of their ads and the rest of the FM stations started doing it but because of this they made so much more money than others in the same field. ---

Yes, it’s been this way for quite a while now. I don’t know if he has the same arrangement as some other stations, where the 3rd person seems to start at 7am, or is only on for certain features. It’s very strange. Could he be starring in a live show at the moment? I know he does acting/stage shows, etc… ---
