Brendon ‘Whippy’ Dangar will be returning to the sunny Gold Coast as Content Director of 1029 Hot Tomato.

Whippy started in radio in his home town in Newcastle, then went onto Brisbane with the third stop being on the Gold Coast back in the early 2000’s, has held key roles on and off the air in a number of metropolitan markets and worked at all three cap city networks including roles of Assistant Content Director at NOVA 106.9 in Brisbane and Content Director at KIIS 101.1 in Melbourne.

Nova 106.9’s Brisbane breakfast show Ash, Kip, Luttsy & Susie O’Neill, has a new Executive Producer.
 
Camille Cannings has been appointed to the role while Samantha Rose (Sam) Spence is on maternity leave.
 
Camille is no stranger to the Nova Brisbane family having worked there previously for over four years.
 

Susie O'Neill has finally succumbed to the lure of the studio and joined the Nova 106.9 breakfast team full-time in 2019.

Susie took up breakfast broadcasting with the Nova team in 2015 but until now has resisted Ash, Kip & Luttsy's lobbying for her to embrace the five-day work-week.

Nova 106.9 breakfast team, Ash, Kip & Luttsy with Susie O’Neill, ended the year on a high by broadcasting live from the top of the Story Bridge for their last show of 2018.

In its fifth week on air, Pink’s ‘A Million Dreams’ jumped 8 places to No.13 with 476 spins on Aircheck’s National Radio Airplay Chart.
 
The move was primarily caused by the Hit network upping spins by 48%. KIIS101 Melbourne spun the track the most for the second week in a row with 37 spins, followed by sister station in Sydney, KIIS1065 adding 34 plays.  

Susie even sent Missy a fan letter 10 years ago. 

Initially created as a joke, the song will be released on iTunes after listener demand. 

The station also announced a partnership with the Seven Network today.
