Graeme Hill would be good on The Sound I reckon

@nztv Thatâs very nice but, despite the fact that Graeme Hill was a musician (i.e. Able Tasmans), he is more interested in talk radio rather than music radio.
@PaddyTePou Thatâs very nice but, his talk radio show has been axed

His slot has been reallocated to Pauline Gillespie but he told listeners last week that he will still have a role with the station, New Zealand Radio - #2360 by samwyatt
@nztv I see. Nigel Yalden (formerly of Radio Sport and Newstalk ZB) will host Today FMâs new Saturday breakfast show and businessman Robett Hollis, who is based in San Francisco, will make his New Zealand radio debut by hosting a weekly business and entrepreneurship show on Saturday afternoons. Other weekend announcers at Today FM will be confirmed by MediaWorks later this month.
Very pleased to hear re Nigel Yalden. Was aware he was appointed sports editor for the network, but where did you hear he has picked up a weekend show?
Producer Brin Rudkin hosting talkback on Magic Talk tonight, 10 till midnight, testing their new studio B he said. Danny Watson had done a few test runs last week also. Brin noted that Today FM will be bringing back overnight talk when the station launches next year.

@samwyatt Good question! I just went to the MediaWorks website recently and according to Today FMâs local pack flipbook, it appears that, in addition to his role as sports editor at MediaWorks, Nigel will host a Saturday breakfast show.

Last day for Geoff Bryan on Magic Music. Heâs moving to Today FM as night time newsreader.

That seems like a downgrade for Geoff, given he co-hosts the breakfast show (or at least chips in here and there occasionally).
Could be after a slower pace, Geoff certainly clocks up some hours. Magic music breakfast and then does drive news in the afternoon. I think he still does Sunday afternoon reading for Newshub radio bulletins as well.

dave white from the sound drive has announced
he is finishing up this year on the station
Just listening to Magic Talk
Sounds like the news is now Just Magic News or The latest news dropped all mentions of Newshub news now MediaWorks has split fully.
