Any change to the music if anyone has been listening today?

It was just the regular overplayed hits and throwbacks when I tuned in for a bit: Ed Sheeran and Sia. They still had the Fresh Hits and Throwbacks tagline.

I haven’t heard it on air today or yesterday, but yes, I did see it hidden away in the scrolling text at the bottom. Blink and you’ll miss it.

One thing the new Nova websites expose the brand to, is the fact it networks its announcers.

You only have to hover your mouse over “Stations” to see just how many stations Mel Tracina & DC are on-air at the moment, along with which Nova’s are sharing the same logs.

It defeats the purpose of choosing your local Nova, when you’ll highly likely hear the same announcer playing the same songs.

Can I please confirm with Nova Brisbane listeners the Saturday morning schedule?

Wiki says that Matt Denny and Angie Kent do Saturday breakfast. Is this 6-8am as I heard Ash, Luttsy and Susie repeats on after 8am?

Also does Keegs do Nova Brisbane as on their official site it says Maddie Rowe and DC in the arvos?

Aaron Rich, also ex Fox FM also appears on the website, is he on air at Nova?

I also remember the drive-time show “The Wrong Way Home” with Akmal, Kal and Ed. From memory it wasn’t aired in Brisbane.

I was young when this show was on but I remember always laughing at it. Fond memories of Akmal and one of the segments, but can’t remember the name of it.

Merge Nova FM with Throwbacks and Launch a Alternative Rock Format to Replace the Nova Throwbacks, it feels too Similar.

Why would you blow up a successful network with something that wouldn’t rate, and therefore lose money? It’s commercial radio , not community radio.
