Yeah happen to be listening to Sea FM & Hot FM Rockhampton now known as Triple M and Hit last week while in Central Queensland for holidays, and couldn’t get over the fact they we’re both playing Podcasts on a weekend… Instantly made me tune back to 4CC which I don’t mind anyway 
I can sorta understand Triple M having some talk content such as the overnight talk based programing… But to have talk across the Hit Network… I Would be interested to see how much their core audience enjoy it

Do SCA care what their core audience enjoy in January?
Listen to the commercial breaks in metro markets (worse in regional) and you’ll find they’re light on for clients.

Do you know if Carrie will be back then, or does she have a fill-in for her maternity leave?
Yeah not sure about that, sorry… On insta she said ‘See you back on the airwaves in 2019’ no specific date was mentioned.

The podcast has changed its artwork and the show name on the Sea FM (and everyone else’s page I’d imagine) shows page has changed.

Probably makes sense for his earlier time slot, didn’t mind it for his original overnight show.
Ash London LIVE returns next Monday 21 January.

Yes, sorry about that as I said I could’ve been wrong… Anyway Danny Lakey is definitely back tomorrow, (whether it’s his new normal time slot, I don’t know). But Keegan said at the end of Hit Nights on Friday that he’ll be back again this week so we’ll see what happens I guess… Maybe Hit Nights with Keegs from 6pm and Danny Lakey 8pm???

Thanks Tommy.
I feel 2DAY FM have used the secret sound for too long now. They should be doing something else. It’s boring.

I don’t think Hughesy and Kate come back till next week so Hit Nights has been starting at 6 (all summer)
So I guess they’re just playing more music for the drive home? The regional hit network drive home has not been great at all, for the times I’ve listened at least. They play 6 minutes of ads every 12 minutes in the 4-5pm Hour (I don’t even think the metros were playing that many ads so close together). Also not many songs being played as Joe Groth airs a lot of his old interviews with music stars (it really is boring). Then they play a Summer Vibe 5 at 5… I really don’t know what to say about that? Thoughts?
