Nine Radio (Talk)

What’d happen when 2GB & 4BC share a show? It’d be 2GB & 4BC Sport?

I reckon they’ll come up with a name (like Sports News), or just bring back SportZone.

IMO, the show doesn’t need a name. Just talk sport in the show. Eg: Sport with Adam Hawse.

Just on the Nine branding, why didn’t we ever see a full integration of Nine’s Money magazine and Money News? Does Nine still own the Money brand?

Nine hasn’t owned the brand since it sold ACP Magazines to Bauer Media in 2012. Money magazine is currently owned and operated by Rainmaker Information, which is a financial services research company.

Back in the 90s the show on 3AW was called Talking Sport and was hosted by Craig Willis.

Ross and Russ warned this morning that listeners will be logged out of the app and will need to sign-in again ahead of the transition to Tapt Media on Friday.

Quite the anal pair those two are. Next they’ll say that listeners will have to put one leg in front of the other in order to walk as of July 1.

The Australian’s Media Diary says that Nine Radio is toying with the idea of moving in with ARN at the latter’s Mount Street HQ in North Sydney. Sources say that ARN is only really using two of the four floors they have leased out in the Coca-Cola building, and that Nine Radio boss Tom Malone has already had some preliminary chats with ARN chair Hamish McLennan about moving in.

I thought Nine had quite a number of floors at 1 Denison Street

Correct.

I think Nine Radio itself is still out at Pyrmont though (same building but different floor to Nova) as Nine Radio never moved when Nine moved from Willoughby to 1 Denison Street.

Happy to be corrected if I am wrong though :slightly_smiling_face:.

Yes they are still at Pyrmont. Depends on when their current lease ends and whether it is cost effective moving.

1-35 Saunders Street is due to be demolished and rebuilt. At some stage 2GB, Nova 96.9, Smooth 95.3 and Network 10 will all be looking for a new home

Moving some radio stations is relatively easy. I do wonder if 10 will bother building anything other than a couple of news studios, and just rent NEP studios whenever they need something bigger.

Will be a massive shame to lose the atrium!

Anything at that site is still a long way off. The proposed zoning change doesn’t even require a full demolishing, they - they could also extended the existing buildings or build on the existing open space.

Wide World of Sports program is reverting to its old name of Sports Today from May 1.

A sensible naming decision there.

More likely a rights related one.

Well that suggests the Nine News branding will also go doesn’t it?

Tapt Media News?

not necessarily if (as reports suggest) Nine will still provide news to the operation.

That is why I have stopped listening to them.
