Royal prank call DJ joins 2DayFM’s breakfast team as anchor

Michael ‘MC’ Christian, one of the two DJs behind the royal prank call, is performing the anchor role as part of the new 2DayFM breakfast show lineup.
Last year Southern Cross Austereo announced the new breakfast team Maz Compton and Dan Debuf would replace Jules Lund, Merrick Watts and Sophie Monk, under who the show plunged from first to last place in the FM market after the departure of Kyle and Jackie O at the beginning of last year.
However, Christian’s role as anchor, which he also performed on their national Drive show, was not promoted when Compton and Debuf were shifted to the breakfast slot.

Really? That’s funny, because it was widely known by one and all in the industry that the whole team was going… must be just you who didn’t know, Mumbrella!
Hardly news. MC anchored Weekend Breakfast with Sophie Monk and Dave Thornton before the drive slot with Dan & Maz as well.
Can’t we drop this ‘one of the two DJs behind the royal prank call’? We’ve moved on, he’s still a fantastic radio personality who has a bright future
good luck. that breakfast show sounds terrible. Unless you’re a 5yo with a bad sense of humour
No, I don’t believe the tagline “one of the two DJs behind the royal prank call” should be dropped in reference to Christian. It was stupidity on a scale of its own. He should be reminded so as not to repeat his mistake.
Get a new story Mumbrella. He’s an awesome radio personality and has worked hard to get where he is. It’s a form of social bullying bringing it up continually – grow a brain and move on Mumbrella.
All commercial radio is stupid. and it was just a prank call, just relax mate
Definitely don’t think the man should have to wear that tag for the rest of his life. Not his fault that someone decided they had to take their own life over a phone call. Takes more than just a phone call for someone to get into that state of mind.
