John Stanley indeed hosted the show this morning, and says he will be there until years end.
The Nine Radio syndication program changes page has a TBA listed from 02/01/23 to 13/01/23 for the show.
Also in Brisbane for Summer, Spencer Howson is filling in on Breakfast and Jason Dasey is filling in on Drive. Mornings and Afternoons have already been discussed. According to the 4BC site, they’ll be taking 2GB weekends with Michael McLaren over Summer too.
Or bring back George Moore if he is interested. Moore is no good on his own, he needs a good sidekick. Maybe that clown on Channel 9 News, he has done it before.
Maybe George Moore with someone like Natalie Peters?
My ideal lineup would be Chris O’Keefe and Natalie Peters for something a bit younger than the usual old bloke shouting at the microphone in Chris Smith.
In my opinion Natalie Peters is an average talent and a just ok newsreader. Maybe this is why they took her off morning newsreading. I guess they will have her on Christmas Morning, I won’t be listening.
Michael McLaren hosted Breakfast on 2GB this morning as John Stanley has got COVID. Michael said that John will hopefully be back tomorrow. Great opportunity for Michael nonetheless. There was some speculation in The Australian that either Michael, Luke Grant, Bill Woods or Joe Hildebrand could get the permanent weekends gig with Chris Smith gone.
