Nine Radio (Talk)

A shame Nine didn’t get Tim Webster before the ABC did.

Hilarious, The Oz has nothing to fill their column inches with to suggest four names. They are admitting they have no clue at all.

3aw and 4bc should of also joined in for the Vinnes Christmas Radiothon not just 2gb

More money would of been able to raised then

The digs at Chris Smith are not only coming from his former Sky News colleagues.

John Stanley still mentioning when he thought he was going to be on holidays - obviously referring to his late call up to cover breakfast.

According to the WWOS show page, Sam will return on the same date as all other regular 3AW presenters on January 16 (I think December below is a typo).

Still on as per the schedule. Is Clinton aiming for comedy? Has talked about why he won’t be serving gravy on Christmas Day. Then has Prof David Flint on for his weekly grenade throwing. Am surprised print/online newsrooms overnight never pick up on it.

Some summer schedules for 3AW…

3AW Christmas Day:
12am-6am: Pat Panetta
6am-12pm: Shane McInnes
12pm-6pm: Peter ‘Grubby’ Stubbs

Christmas Day on 2GB/4BC:

Breakfast - Mark Levy
Mornings/Lunch - Susie Elelman (live from Exodus Foundation)
Afternoon/Drive - Dale Sinden
Evenings - Phillip Brady and Simon Owens.

Both 2GB and 4BC also took the live coverage of the Carols By Candlelight from 3AW tonight. No usual Saturday Night Live or Country Music Countdown program.

Hope Susie brings her hearing aid with her

If I had been at a loose end today, I would’ve called and squeezed a quick quip in about that. Very annoying commercials, patronising too, I bet the product is rubbish too.

@glen2006 rightly mentioned no country music countdown as Phil & Simon went straight through.

What a relief no idiotic country music, a legacy of the Singo/dark days of 2GB.

3AW was the national program feed for 12hrs or more, Christmas Eve night from whatever time Bruce & Phil began to 6am with Pat Panetta overnight.

Less 2GB and more 3AW is always a good thing.

Merry Christmas all.

What’s the 6PR programming schedule across Christmas Eve, Christmas Day & Boxing Day?

Did they take 3AW live for Carols from, say, 3pm? Or heaven forbid, on delay?

Or is there some Perth Christmas Eve radio tradition?

Christmas Day was local

6 to Midday - Russell Collett

Midday to 6pm - Harvey Deegan

6pm to Midnight - Tony McManus.

Tony McManus was on last night. Fred Mafrica also back from holidays doing overnight.

Not sure who was on yesterday morning, but Sean Lindsay did 12 to 6pm.

What’s the context around this?

Susie has been flogging hearing aids on 2GB all year and claims to have a deafness problem herself. Apart from that I thought she did a good job on Christmas Day at the Bill Crews Foundation from what little I heard. Certainly a lot better than Natalie Peters.

100% correct. I had lunch with her a few years back and it was playing up.

I feel like this statement is a unfair, implying that she may not be genuine.
