I wonder if the loop starts to ramp up after midnight and the 4am hour? It does create suspense I suppose?

Final 10 minutes of live programming of Magic Talk at before switching to the Magic Music feed at 1pm.
Magic Talk ceased at 6pm switching to the Today FM feed with a heartbeat effect sound leading to the official launch tomorrow at 5am. Courtesy of @anon36025973 for the recording.
It kinda looks like a flying dildo lol

Firstly, think weâve got an early nomination for post of the year!
Secondly, the promo nztv linked to is shockingly awful. It doesnât do anything to highlight what people can expect from Today FM nor provide a hook/unique selling point for why people should tune in.

Terrible TVC. Explains nothing about the station whatsoever. We got more from the initial launch promo months ago.

Itâs currently playing The Edge 40 but apparently the hosts are filling in for Jono, Ben and Sharyn so itâs just cycling through some very old snippets from other radio stations
Agreed, or as far as something effective, you couldnât get better than something like the Paul Henry endorsement / promo that played across the radio stations the other day

@Aotea Jono and Ben left MediaWorks sometime ago and can be heard on The Hits Breakfast. Sharyn is still on The Edge - âSharyn & Jaydenâ from 3-7pm every weekday.

95.3FM Christchurch now switched over to the Today FM heartbeat. Not sure what time, Mai was still on air after 6pm.
