After first hitting it off in the jungle on I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, the duo are now bringing their unfiltered friendship straight to your ears. Packed with their trademark laughs, chaos and no-holds-barred conversations, Skye & Callum will be available on the Nova Player and all major podcast platforms.
From unfiltered chats about influencer drama and cosmetic surgery to the truth behind their relationships, no topic is off limits for these two. Every episode will dive headfirst into their lives on and offline, with plenty of laughs along the way.
Skye Wheatley became a household name after appearing on Big Brother in 2014 and took home the crown on I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! in 2024. A mum of two and one of Australia’s most well-known influencers, Skye shares the highs and lows of motherhood, renovation life with her partner Lachlan, and all things beauty, fashion and fitness with her dedicated online following.
Callum Hole first appeared on Love Island Australia in 2022, where his quick wit and spontaneous energy made him an instant standout. He went on to star in Love Island Games and placed third on I’m a Celebrity…, where he struck up an unforgettable friendship with Skye. With his signature Welsh accent and headline-making humour, Callum has become a social media favourite and a regular on red carpets and reality shows around the globe.
Skye Wheatley said of the podcast launch, “I’m so excited for people to finally hear this. Cal and I are such a fun duo, and we’ve been dying to share our chats. We’re chaotic in the best way. Expect lots of laughs, a bit of madness, and some very real moments.”
Callum Hole added, “I’m honestly buzzing to be doing this with Skye. Ever since we became besties in the jungle, we’ve wanted to create something together and now it’s here! There’s a lot of juicy stuff coming and it’s going to be unfiltered, unhinged and totally us. We don’t hold back.”
Rachel Corbett, NOVA Entertainment’s Head of Podcasts, said, “Skye and Callum are naturals behind the mic and their chemistry makes you want to be in the room with them. They’re honest, hilarious and completely open with every aspect of their lives. We know listeners are going to be hooked from the first episode.”

Buckle up for the drive home – Triple M’s Lu & Jarch go live nationally on Tuesday June 10, bringing their trademark authenticity, raw honesty and signature wit to the station’s new Early Drive show. Airing weekdays from 2pm to 4pm across the Triple M network, listeners can expect the same laugh-out-loud moments and relatable takes on everyday life that have made them two of Australia’s favourite larrikins.
Luisa Dal Din and Jack Archdale will now bring their unfiltered energy to the drive home nationwide, joining Triple M off the back of their massive digital success. As hosts of We Mean Well, one of the fastest-growing and top-rated podcasts in Australia, they’ve built a loyal audience with their sharp, irreverent take on everyday life. With a combined social media audience of over 900,000 and more than 28 million likes on TikTok alone, they’ve become standout voices in the Australian audio and digital landscape. Their distinctive style is a natural fit for Triple M, perfectly aligned with the network’s core pillars of sport and comedy.
Originating from New Zealand, Luisa has quickly made her mark in Australia’s digital and audio comedy landscape scene, drawing on her background in radio production and media to create content that’s both sharp and engaging. Lu has introduced a fresh perspective to the creative space with her unique ability to blend depth and authenticity, evident in her ever-growing social platforms – amassing a 176K following on Instagram and more than 378K on TikTok.
Jarch has become one of the country’s most recognisable creators, rising to fame through his skits that depict the comedic quirks of Australian life and culture, through a cast of self-made characters and upbeat concepts. Raised on a sprawling property in the regional NSW town of Walcha, Jarch draws heavily on his country upbringing as inspiration for his short videos. His authentic, comic take on rural and suburban culture have earned him a loyal following – boasting over 371K followers and 5.5M Likes on TikTok, along with 175K followers on Instagram.
Ahead of their first show Lu said: “I’m extremely excited and also a bit nervous, hopefully the dump button doesn’t get a good workout. Very much looking forward to starting on the Triple M airways on Tuesday.”
Having done a bit of everything over the years, including radio sales, Jarch said: “Super exciting to go from the sales floor to behind the glass, it’s a bit of a 360 moment for me. Couldn’t be happier to have Lu by my side for it.”
Matthew O’Reilly, Head of Triple M Metro Content, said: “The ideas Lu and Jarch have come in with have genuinely blown us away. They bring a fresh, funny and unpredictable energy that’s set to teach us all some new tricks about radio. Expect a chaotic, clever and hilarious take on everyday things.”
Lu and Jarch will be anchored by Triple M Sydney’s Lachie Pringle and joined by a talented production team led by Executive Producer Codie Jones. Codie brings over 14 years of live radio experience across Australia and the UK, most recently at triple j Breakfast. She also spent time as Creative Content Director on Capital Breakfast in London and began her radio career as a Producer with SCA. Joining her is Producer Ashley Kind and Digital Producer Lachlan Paull.
Triple M’s Lu & Jarch will air from 2pm to 4pm nationwide followed by The Rush Hour with JB & Billy in the AFL states (Victoria, Adelaide, Western Australia and Tasmania), The Rush Hour with Dobbo & Elliott in Queensland and The Rush Hour with Maroon in New South Wales.
Triple M’s Lu & Jarch can be heard weekdays from 2pm – 4pm from June 10 on Triple M or on the free LiSTNR app.

ABC Radio Australia’s Pacific Break, the Pacific’s biggest music competition, is back for 2025.
From Friday 27 June 2025, the search begins to discover the Pacific and Timor Leste’s best original artist. The winner will receive an all-expenses-paid trip to perform at WOMADelaide, Australia’s biggest international music, arts and dance festival.
This year, Pacific Break launches for the first time in Samoa with a free, star-studded concert at iconic Friendship Park in downtown Apia. On the line-up are Pacific music’s biggest names including Pacific Break past winners Chris Rohoimae (2024, Solomon Islands), Ju Ben (2023, Fiji) and Danielle (2022, Papua New Guinea) and Samoan superstars, country music icon Mr Cowboy and soulful vocal queen Tofaga Meke.
Pacific Break’s 2025 judges have also been announced, with Australian-based Fijian artist and label head Joji Malani joining returning judges PNG-born Australian neo soul diva Ngaiire, WOMADelaide Associate Director Annette Tripodi, and ABC Radio Australia music presenters, Hau Lātūkefu (In The Fale) and Sose Fuamoli (Sista Sounds and On The Record).
According to Malani, “Pacific Break has played an important role in showcasing talent from across the Pacific in a way no other competition has done before. There is a unique sophistication within our cultures—deeply rooted yet universally relatable—and Pacific Break provides a platform to share that with the world. I’m humbled to contribute, even in a small way, to this important movement.”
Fuamoli said: “It is exciting to see the return of Pacific Break for 2025! It is such a special platform for a diverse range of artists from throughout the region. In previous years we have seen how both winners and finalists have benefited from the radio, television and social support of the competition and I look forward to meeting this year’s class of nominees and seeing who takes out the top honour for 2025.”
Lātūkefu said: “The talent pool in our neck of the woods is so deep. It always has been. We just need the opportunities for our musicians’ talent to be seen and to be heard. That’s why it’s so important for something like Pacific Break to exist so the rest of our region and the world can hear the beauty that we hear. I’m super excited for this year to kick off!”
