When radio performers are on a good thing, stick to it
Radio duos can’t be concocted by management says Jason ‘Jabba’ Davis and there’s no more classic example than Jono and Dano. 
Jonathon Coleman and Ian Rogerson first came together as ‘Jono and Dano’ at the birth of Triple J in 1980, pioneering the now well-worn path of a slot on the Js leading to a commercial network – in their case it would be Triple M, who they joined despite, in Coleman’s words, “everyone calling us fucking turncoats”.
The pair were part of a golden era of radio with stable-mates Doug Mulray, Rob Duckworth and Stuart Cranney. Together they took the new station to number one. They parlayed that success into a TV show on Channel Seven, but in a twist on the current climate of radio and TV crossovers, Triple M weren’t so receptive to the pair’s on screen ambitions and the duo were immediately axed.
God that makes me feel old I think I have listened to Jono and Dano from the very start of their career. I would be interested to know which radio duos/teams you think are working these days. I must say I liked the dynamic between Chrissie Swan and Yumi Stynes and was surprised when they let Yumi go.
