More changes at New FM - Kath has left the Novos after a few months on air. She has been temporarily replaced by Ariana Gatti (former WIN News Journalist). Itās understood she was hired as a casual newsreader before being put on the show immediately after.

Seriously, put Joel Gosper on brekky, just play music and news and a few phone topics.
Run clean the rest of the workday with 80s, 90s and Now, tighten the music slightly and get a jock for Drive.
The Novos brand has well and truly run its course.

100% agree with that line-up & format.
Let the music variety be the hero rather than the talent.

Jess Rouse is leaving NEW News as well. Maybe going to MMM with Hamish Finlay going into teaching? Although last I heard, SCA were in a āhiring freezeā - shame itās not the same for firing.

Poor thing, how many people have had to ditch radio for a full time job beyond media? A great shame when circumstances conspire against good talent.

Jade moved to Qld with her husband & bub & planned to work in her Marriage celebrant business, out of the media.
Brandon was/is working out of the media after a stint at ARN Sydney, but I canāt remember exactly where, but heās currently looking to get back to Coast FM 96.3 Gosford.
I donāt know about the others.

Why is Brandon trying to go back to Coast FM? Whoās told you that? From what I gather on social media, he went to Sky News not long after leaving ARN and New FM.

Considering Iām the tech at CoastFM so know whatās going on there & it was the Chairman & backup Content Director at CoastFM told me Brandon is wanting to come back.
Yes I do remember heās at Sky News now itās been mentioned, maybe he misses radio & what heād be able to do at CoastFM that he canāt at Sky News.

Whatās matty doing at MMM, on air or back end? What is Jackson doing in la?

I believe Matty is ops manager at Triple M Sydney, and panelling drive? Brad has completely dropped off the radar since becoming a dad a few years back.
I think Jackson is working for a media company in LA.
