Wait… so what was the point of Carrie leaving The Project?
Does she not want to work at all?
Just do 4-6pm. If Hit were to remain talk-free 3-4pm, they’d be the only commercial FM option - apart from ARN’s Pure Gold network & smooth.

No one yet, I’m guessing maybe Zoe will be?

I hope not MC. He is the last remaining connection to 2DayFM’s glory days. He is a brilliant announcer IMO.

I’m currently on holidays and I’ve noticed Hit has a new package in regional areas.
- New voiceover for station identification (same voice as Triple M Regional I believe)
- News, weather and traffic sweeps have changed - it’s now called “HIT NEWS” instead of Hit News Briefing alongside new sound
Some elements of 2020 “Get That Feeling” package are still being used, but seems to be tweaked heaps.

Derrrr… HIT NEWS sounds a million times better than trying to cross-promote with their LiSTNR daily podcast, “The Briefing”.
I’m glad they went back to basics.
Speaking of which, why wouldn’t they call it a “NEWS HIT”?

When will the metros drop the ‘News Briefing’? It just sounds weird, especially on Mix during the day where the reader says ‘news briefing headlines’.

I reckon just call it news update and be done with it.

Hit104.7 Canberra have called it the “News Hit” for years. They never adopted “News Briefing”.

This may have something to do with them promoting iHeart Radio over Listnr with both Hit 104.7 and Mix 106.3 steam on iHeart Radio thanks to ARN’s involvement in both stations.
Yes SCA provide programming for Canberra fm (Mix 106.3 and Hit 104.7) but ARN manage the stations.

Hit104.7 also promotes (and is available on) Listnr. The joint venture allows messaging/advertising from both ARN and SCA.

Mix94.5 Perth has brought back it’s ‘Mix Means Variety’ positioner. Very happy with this move, I feel it’s the best one they’ve had.

I noticed just looking at their website, they use the same ‘The More Music Breakfast Show’ name as Smooth FM.

They’ve changed it this morning to The Most Music Breakfast Show. I think the website is still outdated. They also call the workday The Most Music Workday.

I can’t see that it’s been mentioned here… but it seems that 2Day has gone back to the networked Hit program at nights this year.
