Triple M reveals big shake up to Drive shows in 2025
The Triple M network has unveiled its Drive show line up for 2025.
In 2025 The Marty Sheargold Show will continue to be heard nationally across the Triple M network from 3-4pm, Monday to Friday, then the comic will take the Drive shift in Sydney, Brisbane, Gold Coast and all Triple M regional markets in New South Wales and Queensland.
James ‘JB’ Brayshaw and Billy Brownless will expand from its Victoria and Tasmania market to South and Western Australia. In 2025, The Rush Hour with JB & Billy Drive show will be heard from 4-6 p.m., Monday to Friday, across Melbourne, Hobart, Adelaide, Perth, and Triple M’s regional stations in these southern states.
The new Triple M line up for 2025 marks the end of the Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth Rush Hour shows.
“I’m looking forward to returning to the Drive shift for NSW and Queensland listeners in 2025 and giving them the extended version of the show,” Sheargold said.
“The commute home is a time to unwind and finish the day with a chat and a laugh, and that’s exactly what I will be aiming to deliver.
“I also wanted to thank the teams from the Sydney, Brisbane/Gold Coast and Queensland Rush Hour shows who have all had amazing stints and been hugely entertaining. I’m committed to carrying on their legacies.”
James Brayshaw and Billy Brownless said: “We’re excited that our live show will now be extended for our listeners in South and Western Australia, which are legendary footy states with an incredible history of successes, as Bill knows because he attends all their premiership reunions.
“We also want to acknowledge the Adelaide and Perth Rush Hour teams, many of whom are great mates, and congratulate them on their shows. We don’t underestimate the opportunity we have been given and we are focused on creating a show that honours them and their listeners.”
SCA Chief Content Officer, Dave Cameron, said: “Triple M in 2025 will continue its transformative content approach for the continued audience growth that we have seen in the last two years on Australia’s legendary Triple M Network, by delivering two already well-loved shows that will both extend into new markets next year in Drive.
“Marty Sheargold is one of this country’s favourite comedians and radio personalities, and we know how much listeners nationally love hearing him in the afternoon already.
“To now get an extended version of the Marty Sheargold Show for our NSW and Queensland listeners is hugely exciting.
“Likewise, JB and Billy are already household names in Australia’s southern states and have a legion of fans in Adelaide and Perth, so we know that listeners will tune in for their unique blend of serious sport chats and banter, which can only come from decades of friendship.
“We sincerely thank our existing state Rush Hour shows for their hard work and commitment over the last few years and look forward to a different approach nationally in 2025 with more exciting announcements to come soon.”
