its back
The Edge Breakfast seem to have had a lot of guests on lately including Sharyn and Producer Dan from the afternoon show. Do you think they could be trialling a new host to go with Meg and Randell?
Yeah they trialed a few comedians over the last couple of weeks Joe Daymond, James Roque, Eli Matthewson but the producer Dan from Afternoons seems to be back on more often than not.
Not sure Sharyn or Steph are serious contenders, or Karen 20 whacks who co hosted one morning lol
Permanent replacement announced for Canterbury Mornings on ZB, John MacDonald who has been filling in since Chris Lynch departed. Listened to him a few times, prefer John to Chris Lynch who was just a bit ‘mouthy’. His voice however is similar to Mike Hoskings!
heard him a few times he sounds good
More fm Auckland went to dead air at 10:23 am Sunday
Were there any problems with the Sky Tower transmitter (in which Auckland’s FM radio stations broadcast from)?
No, The backup tape played after 15 seconds
The Edge hosts phone “Big Boss Bosto” on air… that’s Christian Boston. Up till recently MORE FM’s Network Programme Director. I wonder if he’s replacing Leon Wratt?
Christian is Leon’s 2IC and is managing The Edge these days, I hear.
Amy Collett is the new More FM Network PD as announced last week. She will be relocating to Christchurch from Perth where she is currently the Group Content Director for HIT WA.
Thanks @medianz. Is Casey still the edge’s content director?
@nztv Yes indeed. The content director for The Edge is still Casey Sullivan, according to LinkedIn.
I think so, yes.
Interesting that Christian Boston has gone back to a Top 40 station after being in charge of ZM for so long.
He worked wonders at More FM but I wonder if he’s been tasked with reviving The Edge.
Where’s Matt Anderson gone?
It’s a real shame losing overnight talkback on Magic Talk. Tony Amos was the best overnights host on air in recent times, never really cared for ZB’s hosts at the same time. Mediaworks continues to self-implode its talk station.
Repeat radio. Sucks.
having been enjoying the sounds a-z
countdown why cant we hear more of these “rare” tracks played more on a
regular basis
Agreed. At least these days Mediaworks should be in no doubt why they’re so far behind ZB. Magic Talk is a mess, somehow it’s even worse than when it first launched.
What’s going to happen to Magic Talk when it closes? And will Newstalk ZB be the only commercial talk radio network in New Zealand?
