97.3 deserve to be #1 AM drive - Bianca works her heart outā¦ the boys have lifted tooā¦
The show now has a ācheekyā edge rather than just the old hackneyed styled PC friendly ājokesā they used to engage in.
Kyle and Jackie O at 7am this morning:
Jackie O: Coming up soon we have our legal expert in the studio so you can call up with any legal questions .
Kyle: How appropriate
Jackie O: Maybe your friends could ring in?
Cut to ad break.
And thatās why I listen.
Meanwhile over on 2DayFM the breakfast hosts do what they have been doing since 2014. Yell into the microphone.

Because people with associations to crime figures make great breakfast hosts?

Herald Sun is reporting today that Matt and Meshel could face the axe from KIIS 1011 and could potentially be replaced by Jason Labby Hawkins and PJ Harding who recently resigned from ZM in New Zealand.

Not sure if Melbourne listeners will be happy to have a Kiwi co-hosting their local breakfast show.
Jason Labby Hawkins is an Australian. He has previously worked on B105 and 2DAYFM.
Jason Hawkins is Australian and was previously at SCA including breakfast on B105 in Brisbane. Heās only currently in his third (and final) year of radio in NZ.

Sorry, just read about him in todayās paper. When I saw his nickname Labrat I recognised him immediately, Iāve heard his networked shows on Melbourne radio before.

They actually do a decent show, only listened for the first time recently. Would be a shame if this happens, especially as NO ONE KNOWS WHO THEY ARE.
Matt & Meshel BOTH off for the 2nd day in a row with āthe fluā. Wonder if this is related to these rumours?

Labby is a great broadcaster, and will do a great show I think.
Labrat and Stav (and Abby) were always pretty decent.
Speaking of great Broadcasters, I also think Lowie would be a good get for a networkā¦
Isnāt Lowie already on KIIS on the weekends?
Also, Iām wondering if Hughesy and Kate will be moved to Melbourne breakfast and those other two on drive?

Yes , Lowie is currently with the network. He does Saturday arvo.
I cant see H&K going back to mornings. Wasnāt that the main reason why they stopped their morning show on Nova?
nobody knows who they are, name recognition is important, especially on KIIS
Thatās not true. nova listeners know Labby.
He isnāt calling himself Labby, and most people in Melbourne donāt know of him.
Yep. Iāve got no clue who he is.
