Hit Network

Ok thanks. Far out I was just on the Hit App before @David made that comment. Still said Danny Lakey, obviously got updated just after.

David · December 16, 2018, 11:29pm

Don’t you work for them. You should know.

tommy13190 · December 17, 2018, 6:02am

How could you make such a false accusation?

killy06 · December 17, 2018, 8:05am

Hit Nights has only been on air for a couple of mins (in Qld at least) and already prefer this to Danny Lakey, who is definitely more suited to late nights IMO. Keegs is a great talent!

To be fair, for some reason I also thought you worked there

on the subject of working there Hit105 and MMM in brisbane were recently advertising for a trainee broadcast technician. not sure if the job is still open but it could be a good way to get your foot in the door

Ik right, Keegs is a truly great presenter… But who would you prefer Ash London or Keegan?

David · December 17, 2018, 10:03am

Keegs. 1000%.

killy06 · December 17, 2018, 10:15am

Agree, definitely Keegs > Ash London.

I’m kinda surprised they didn’t announce him and Hit Nights to replace Ash London Live for 2019 since she was permanently appointed to 2day fm breakfast.

David · December 17, 2018, 10:16am

I personally don’t see Ash doing both lasting past Easter. That’s a ridiculous schedule.

killy06 · December 17, 2018, 10:21am

100%, especially if she will still be doing the Saturday trending 20 with Angus and Sunday Live & Local show - both no doubt pre-recorded.

David · December 17, 2018, 10:24am

It’ll be her night show that suffers. There’s no way they’ll let her give up breakfast and having to find another host so soon. It’ll be Ash London Live that goes - and I think that’s the plan. 6:30-8pm. It’s way too easy to just get Danny to do 6:30-11pm when Ash “decides” it’s too much to handle.

killy06 · December 17, 2018, 10:36am

That would be the easy option, I think there are better options for them promoting internally than extending Lakey though.

thesub1 · December 17, 2018, 7:10pm

I agree. Give them till early-mid 2019 and Ash London will most likely announce she can no longer do the long days.

She’d have to be one of the longer night show hosts the network has had in a while.

TVHead · December 18, 2018, 11:54am

Keegs would be great doing a show 6.30-8 followed by Danny Lakey. Keegs could stay doing arvos on Fox FM then.

just caught this on YouTube. for someone who has not been in the industry it’s really interesting (and for those of us who have worked in community radio it’s a nice insight to how those with money live…)
