Crystal ended up in the drink on the first day of summer.

When a vacancy came up recently at the Power FM breakfast show in Murray Bridge, the station chose a novel way of filling the position.

After receiving some exceptional applications for the Breakfast Anchor / Promotions Manager role, Power FM decided to give some of the top applicants a chance to give the job a try, “Bachelorette style”.

With Kristel Dally as the station's “Radio Bachelorette”, searching for her ultimate “Radio Husband”, the Power FM audience got to have their say as to which match they liked to wake up to.

The radio community is being encouraged to rally around POWER FM Music Director and Announcer Chris Dzelde and his announcer wife Mel.

 Mel Dee, who is also the Program Director of both 5MU and POWER FM at Murray Bridge has been diagnosed with cancer - again.

This morning it's been revealed Mel has been told she has two extra tumours on her liver bringing the total to four now... so her doctors have decided to speed things up a little.

Local radio station PowerFM was granted exclusive access to the old Puzzle Park site to give it a final farewell.

The site, currently owned by developers, is set to become housing in the not too distant future. Until then, the rides sit untouched, just a little more run down than when the park’s doors closed nearly 10 years ago.

In its heyday, the adventure park attracted up to 3000 visitors who willingly hurtled down 20-foot high steel slides, jumped aboard giant rocking giraffes and hit the go-kart track. 

With the NSW Far South Coast battered by an extraordinary weather pattern, complete with driving winds of up to 100 kph and more than 200 millimetres of torrential rain in the past two days, without hesitation both 2EC and Power FM have reinforced Grant Broadcasters commitment to providing live and local radio.

As it became obvious early Sunday morning that the already shocking weather conditions were due to worsen with the approaching low weather pattern heading south, the East Coast Radio team immediately jumped into action.

Ross Watson is moving on from his position on the 103.1 Power FM breakfast show in Ballarat after two and a half years.

"That means I'll be on to co-host number six," laughed co-host Jules.

Jules has been the constant force on the breakfast show for the past 7 years, with colleagues moving in and out of the station over the years.

Ross told listeners on air last week: "For the record... you're a great co-host."

Finding the right co-host for a new brekky show can be a struggle. Will there be chemistry? How long will it take to get to know each other and form a bond? How can we be sure they’re not really a serial killer?

The struggle is real but it’s made a lot easier when the pair already know each other.

As fate would have it, the new brekky show in Wagga Wagga have had a past life together; studying and working together at AFTRS in 2013.
