From today, 2 September through until Friday 14 September, AFTRS FM will tackle the issues that impact students – like cost-of-living, social media, pop culture, and more.
Following the 30th year of Show Radio in April, and regional broadcast 2NRS in June, AFTRS FM will see students produce and package a daily 30-minute factual talk broadcast, with support from guest air checkers, mentors and coaches from across the industry including Greg Byrnes from 9 Entertainment, Fiona Ellis Jones and Naomi Lynch from ARN and Rob Mailer and Jodie Gunders from the ABC.
AFTRS FM will stream live on iHeart weekdays from 3pm, and appear as an on-demand podcast, with ‘best ofs’ airing Saturday 7 and 15 September from 7am to 7:30am.
Students will also publish stories online and across social media channels.
Digital radio station iHeartAustralia will continue to hero 100% Australian music and feature local artist interviews, as well as sharing daily news on all the 2024 ARIA Music Awards nominees.
This Thursday, following the ARIAs, iHeartAustralia will celebrate the winners all day from 9am and broadcast an ARIA Hall of Fame special with Missy Higgins at 12pm.
Special guests ARIA CEO Annabelle Herd and artist Ben Lee will also be featured.
