Elise Elliott hosting 3AW Afternoons today as usual. It must have been hard for her after the death of her father-in-law yesterday. Elise played some on-aired quotes from John Elliott before speaking to her husband Tom (over Zoom) about the life of the businessman. ---

Neil Breen appeared at the end of Riverfire tonight to talk about the swap with 4BH. Not sure if the audience would have really understood what he was talking about. But saying that 4BC will then be heard from Gold Coast to Sunshine Coast to Toowoomba. ![20210925191041](https://mediaspy-org-s3.s3.dualstack.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/original/4X/7/d/0/7d0fc78d9bea510680a7d4e8ca26368638d7baa1.jpeg) ---

I’m not sure Triple M, one of the Riverfire sponsors would’ve been too happy with the 4BC promotion either. ---

Because 882 4BH is certainly not listenable on the Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast and Toowoomba now. ---

Yeh. they would have to swap with 4TAb to achieve that 😀 It would need a variation of the Brisbane RA1 LAP to increase power. ---

Well then I think they’re dreaming 🙂 882 starts to get scratchy at Ipswich, let alone Toowoomba. And it’s terrible towards the Sunshine Coast too. ---

So two non-radio types foisting there TV wisdom on radio. Yeah like it’s just the same right. Anyone wonder why 4BC and 97.3fm have never before now given Sophie a gig after several trials? ---

I have been open about the fact I have a LOT to learn about radio. Luckily I have been filling in on air over the past few months and have picked up a lot already. Many people have made the transition to radio with success – Ben Fordham being one example. have a listen on October 4 - happy to accept your criticism once you’ve heard the show. Having said that I expect episode 100 will sound very different to episode 1 - we will learn and adapt. ---

As long as you’ve thought long and hard why Nine has given you the gig when plenty of experienced radio producers are available in Brisbane…particularly bearing in mind the questionable radio trials Sophie has behind her. ---

Simple question. What is the criteria that Nine Radio has in place to measure the success of this upheaval in frequency swapping for two heritage (if somewhat mistreated in last 8 years) heritage brands? ---

This is a little rude, no? It’s not Rob’s fault that they chose him over all the other apparent available producers in Brisbane. Rob was offered a job and accepted it. Congrats on the new challenge Rob! ---

I’ve spoken to Max Dudley about this and he says while Ray (and John) is rating well they won’t be changing it but he did mention that there are plans and wants for more local shows.
