It was an immediate switch off for me. Nothing worse than waking up to politics and been given the usual 4BC slant on things.

Agree! Peter Fegan is awesome. I donât have to listen to 2GB on the app at breakfast for a few weeks anyway.
Gearing up to break the 51 year record of 2QN breakfast legend Paul Dix. Are there any out there that have topped Paulâs marathon effort?

Yeah bummer for me here in Sydney. 3AW overnights about as interesting as listening to paint dry. Whatâs with the radio play/serial? These were popular about 60+ years ago LOL. Itâs a really bad look / listen for 2GB as Sydneyâs No. 1 to be on such a threadbare roster over the break âŚ
Talking about things that were popular 60 years ago and that is a talk station using stingers in between each call or segment.
Surely no one does that anymore?
There is something worse than mindless talkback overnight and that is someone rambling on and on and on night after night talking politics in the wee small hours. Imagine suffering that every night, it would drive you to insanity.
The pillow is a better friend overnight.
I havenât listened to 3AW for years, and while I am not a huge fan of Aunty Donna, it looks to me like 3AW has not changed since I last listened:

Apparently sports commentator Jim Maxwell at ABC radio clocked up 50 years this year. Not far away from 51?

Jason Morrison was on 2GB last night doing the 8pm hour replacing Joe Hilderbrand.
Has he been heard on 2GB since he left years ago? Interesting choice.

Jason was a guest over the weekend - I think on Bill Woodsâ show on 2GB.
Great to see Warren Moore get a Summer gig. I wonder if theyâll give weekends to him?
⌠Itâll probably be Jason Morrison on 2GB weekends in 2024.

Neil Breen isnât suited to radio. Quite difficult to listen to.
Youâve recently discovered him on 2GB?
Lasted three years in Brisbane across breakfast and drive. His breakfast share not surpassed by the KQ cancer there now.
No accounting for taste in Brisbane it seems.

Iâm aware of his history with 4BC yes. Listened to him briefly today filling on 2GB drive.
He has an odd cadence and quite quirky manner. Bizarre.

Peter Fegan doing 4BC breakfast and then back to reporting for Nine News in the afternoon and evening.
Heâll be a tired little Vegemite then. Also went to the Foo Fighters concert Tuesday night.
