Triple M has confirmed today that\u00a0Xavier Ellis<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Katie Lamb<\/strong>\u00a0are joining forces to host the\u00a092.9 Triple M<\/strong>\u00a0Breakfast show, which kicks off on Monday 21 October 2024. No strangers to the Triple M airwaves, the pair are the ideal combination of sport-loving and entertaining Perth identities to wake up the city.<\/p>\n

Xavier Ellis is a well-known former AFL player, or as he prefers, a self-proclaimed \u2018mediocre\u2019 AFL player, who won a premiership with the Hawthorn Football Club before joining the West Coast Eagles in 2013. Following his 2016 retirement from the AFL, Ellis transitioned to media, bringing his footy knowledge, sharp wit, and engaging personality to radio. He was part of the team that launched Triple M in Perth and is a favourite among Triple M listeners who enjoy his ability to balance detailed footy analysis with entertaining banter. Triple M listeners are also familiar with Ellis\u2019 regular tales of playing in the 2008 AFL Grand Final and the lingering question about if he was \u2018robbed\u2019 of the Norm Smith medal; of course, this question is mostly raised by Ellis himself!<\/p>\n

Ellis has been entertaining Perth on the Triple M Breakfast show for years and his willingness to poke fun at himself is the perfect match for co-host Katie Lamb who has racked up a legion of fans for her hilarious social media skits. Most recently the host of Triple M\u2019s\u00a0The Rush Hour<\/em>, Lamb is a force in her own right who has spent more than a decade building her radio career. Outside of the studio Lamb is a passionate sports fan and participant, whether that be netball or beer pong.<\/p>\n

Off-air Ellis and Lamb have been great mates for years and are excited to combine their talents for\u00a0Triple M Breakfast with Xav & Katie<\/em>\u00a0on 92.9 Triple M.<\/p>\n

Xavier Ellis<\/strong>\u00a0said: \u201cI\u2019m so excited to team up\u00a0with my good mate, Katie. I\u00a0thoroughly enjoy laughing with, and at Katie on-air, at the pub or on social media. We\u2019re going to have a fun time together, and we can\u2019t wait to bring this fun to our wonderful listeners. On a side note, I will be auditing her Monday ‘sick days’!\u201d<\/p>\n

Katie Lamb\u00a0<\/strong>said: \u201cBesides the 4am alarm, I\u2019m so excited to move into Breakfast! I feel like Xav and I will have a lot of fun together, we are both in our 30s and both love a good time. It\u2019s a match made in heaven! I can\u2019t wait to see out the rest of the year together and hit the ground running in 2025. I\u2019m super excited and so grateful for this opportunity.\u201d<\/p>\n

SCA Chief Content Officer,\u00a0Dave Cameron<\/strong>, said: \u201cXav and Katie\u2019s genuinely hilarious relationship will deliver Perth a pretty special and exciting new experience at breakfast time. Their mad love for Perth is undeniable, and we know our Triple M listeners will instantly love this new wake-up call.\u201d<\/p>\n

Listeners can tune in weekdays from 5.30am to 8.30am to\u00a0Triple M Breakfast with Xav & Katie<\/em>\u00a0on 92.9 Triple M from Monday 21 October 2024.<\/p>\n
