💔
Anyone who's ever done a radio school course knows how close every team gets. We share deep thoughts and very honest stories and opinions because that's the core of radio which we love.
But it's the support and camaraderie of all the students that I've treasured more than anything else with over the last 15 years.
We all share the joy of everyone's success as heavily as we all feel the pain of a loss.

Two weeks ago we lost a great friend and talent, Aaron Morris.
It's been a very raw and emotional time for Aaron's family and friends. Hi wife Jo has been so kind, warm and generous to me and all of his classmates from the August Intro course.
It's been a heartbreaking time for these incredible people.

Over the last couple of weeks we've shared privately so many many beautiful memories of Aaron, from his passion for VoiceOvers and the home studio that he had just built, to his love for Jo and his sons, to his quirky habit of buying three of the exact same article of clothing when he saw something he liked on sale in Harbourtown.🥹

If you studied with Aaron and would like to share a memory or pay tribute, please feel comfortable with sharing it on this post.

Rest in Peace kind Aaron. You'll never be forgotten.

Everything you need to know is here.

Key points:
NO you don't need experience, and

Good luck!

Have you ever sat there thinking, "Pfft.....I could do better than these clowns on Triple M"

Monday October 27, 2025 -
For the first time in the network’s history, Triple M is giving everyday Australians a chance to host a national Breakfast show. This December, five brand-new Breakfast shows will go to air nationally for Pilot Week, a bold new initiative giving fresh voices a shot at the big time on Australia’s most iconic radio networks.



Beginning Monday, 15 December, Pilot Week is a national radio first: a week-long showcase of emerging Breakfast radio talent, with each new show having a chance to become the next staple of the Triple M lineup.



Entries will be reviewed over the coming weeks and narrowed down to a Top 10. From there, five final shows will be selected to broadcast nationally on Triple M from 6–8am, during Pilot Week, Monday December 15 to Friday December 19.



Triple M has a long history of discovering and developing some of Australia’s most loved broadcasters. The network’s Pilot Week search follows the runaway success of Lu & Jarch (Luisa Dal Din and Jack Archdale), who have captured more than 934,000 listeners nationally and driven more than 50 million social media views. Lu & Jarch’s cross-platform success proves that fresh, authentic, personality-led content can cut through in a competitive radio landscape.



Matthew O’Reilly, SCA Head of Broadcast Content, said: “Triple M has always been about big personalities, creating world-class content, think Andrew Denton, The Cage and The Hot Breakfast just to name a few. Pilot Week opens the door for fresh voices to jump behind the mic and have an opportunity for an exciting career in radio.



“The audio industry is booming, and there’s incredible creative energy across the country, from podcasters and comics to online storytellers. Triple M’s Pilot Week is the perfect opportunity for anyone who’s ever listened to Mick Molloy, James Brayshaw or Beau Ryan and thought, “I reckon I could do that!” O’Reilly concluded.



The five Pilot Week shows broadcast nationally across Triple M and stream on LiSTNR. Applications open Friday October 31 and close on Friday, 15 November. To apply or submit a demo, visit:

Mackay is a really competitive market and STAR is the number 1. station up against Hit and Triple M.
Fantastic chance to get your career back on track if you've been through redundancy or if you simply want to take the next STEP.

Big shoutout to Craig Bruce and Mena Soliman for hosting another great Podcast Workshop with me on the weekend. Thanks also to Luke Wilton and the eight talented students who shared their ideas and personalities on their journey to launching their own podcasts.

Some really great ideas that I’m sure you’ll be hearing about very soon.

Hi! This post may be the sign you’ve been waiting for.

If you’re like me and harbour unrealised creative ideas that keep you up at night, or vivid daydreams that just won’t quit, this is your chance to do something about it.

If your idea takes the form of a podcast (maybe you hadn’t even thought of that), limited spaces still remain for our upcoming Australian Radio School Podcast Workshop (18-19 October).

Our last workshop featured 10 incredibly motivated ‘dreamers’, most of them travelling to Adelaide from the eastern seaboard.
Only three months on, and half of them are now published podcasters! ☺️

On the first day you’ll get invaluable face time with Craig Bruce, who will give you an actionable plan that takes your idea from the back of the napkin to (hopefully) the front page of the podcast app.

On the second day, Mena Soliman and I walk you through the ups and downs of a real-world podcast; how to prepare, useful hacks that will save you time and what pitfalls to avoid.

Plus, if technology is your hurdle, we give you a crash course on where to start so you can make your podcast sound as crisp as it can be.

If you’d like to find our more, please drop me a DM or head to www.AustralianRadioSchool.com (limited spaces remain, so get in touch with any queries asap).

*** We can even be flexible about payment.

We’re excited to help the next wave of podcast hopefuls fulfil their creative goal! See you soon 👋☺️

MasterClass 2025 is back.

If you've ever wanted to work in a Breakfast/Drive on air team or a 2 or 3 person podcast show then this is the course for you.

It runs for 4 weeks on Monday and Tuesday nights from November 18 in the Fresh and SAFM studios in Adelaide.

There'll be 3 teams of three thrown together by me. 😇
It's kinda like a reality show for radio and about radio with YOU starring in it.
It's great fun and the best way to learn how to create great chemistry and great content in a team show.

I'm happy to have a no obligation chat and answer any questions you've got.
