35 markets?! For some reason, i thought the “workday” (12-3 pm afternoons?) slot were 3 hubs like the old DMG Star /Hot days (1 for NSW/VIC/SA, 1 in QLD and 1 in WA).

It’s not great that Hit WA is getting something that neither well known, live or local.

Noticed that 96.1 SAFM Limestone Coast won’t be getting Harry, since the name change to SAFM in July 2020, the 12 - 3pm shift has been announcer free.

No mention of where Nic is heading next, day time?

With Matt living in Sydney, it’s sure to be only a change in studio at World Square for him.

Would be interesting to know how many of the team
work out of the Gosford studio for this show.

Matt has been the panel op/audio producer for SCA’s Australia Today with Steve Price and Natarsha Belling.

Another reduction in talent/cost savingt with his departure?

Lost opportunity that SCA aren’t backing their own product. High talent cost to initiate, yet when the show is barely marketed and slowly building audience, rather than investing for a return, SCA have cost cut for the show to whither on the vine.

A great concept sadly not skilfully supported.

Yeah, I don’t quite feel that Matty will be strong enough. I was really hoping this’d be Borge’s time to shine.

I’m sure if Bodge had gotten the gig that there’d be a fair few Sydneysiders tuning into 101.3FM.

Do we know that he won’t be relocating?

There’s not much regional coming out of the metro studios/offices except when it’s shared with metro.

Has anyone listened to the Hit NSW regional brekkie show? Are they really regionally focussed? Or just another FM brekkie show?

And do they at all try to sound local on the Coast? Like how Richard King occasionally skews towards Newcastle/Hunter on his SRN Breakfast show?

Think they already finished. Herbie is doing it solo before these guys start I am assuming according to the K-Rock website.

They don’t sound very local on the socials.

Yes Herbie has been covering the shift solo, amazingly still with a fair bit of talk.

Have the regional Triple M’s changed their format once again? :crazy_face:
I was talking to a mate last night and he said they have gone back to that pop feel good format.
I’ll have a listen once I get back to SCA county :face_vomiting:

Quite possibly, I did hear a couple of songs in the last few days I wasn’t expecting to hear, but didn’t listen for long enough to get a true gauge.

If so, they seem to be changing formats almost as often as I change my underwear!
