Long time in the industry will be a huge loss to mw
Might be a great time to shake up the drive show a bit, get some fresh sound in like what The Hits have been doing with Matty & PJ.
Another right-leaning media venture seems to be struggling as ZB Plus fails to update its content and seek subscriptions

Shift over either Sharyn, Steph or Megan from The Edge would be my guess.
Or Brodie Kane maybe?

Does that mean ZB Plus becomes “ZB Minus”?

Ha! Whatever you say, @nztv!

That might work, I think Brodie has been off-air for a few years now, so could be a good opportunity for her, and she appears to be based in Auckland too.

Woman’s Day article with Jay Jay from nearly 3 mths ago…
Turning serious, she continues, “My life has been full of drama, but I feel lucky I’ve been able to live my dream of being on the radio. It’s all I ever wanted to do. Ever since I was a little kid, I just wanted to entertain people.”
Woman’s Day can vouch for that, but hopefully that eulogy won’t be needed for a few decades yet. In the meantime, what does the future hold for Jay-Jay?
“I’m actively thinking about that,” she confesses. “The media landscape’s changing so fast. While I love what I do and I’ll keep doing radio as long as I can, I also like to feel secure and I need other options just in case this job falls over. I still haven’t come up with an answer, but you can guarantee I won’t be going into real estate. I’m too lazy to be a salesperson!”
