Matthew O’Reilly, SCA Head of Broadcast Content, said: “Pilot Week has already been a huge success, offering a unique opportunity to discover fresh talent, with an incredible array of talent putting their hand up for a Triple M first. We were impressed by the diversity of applications, from everyday Aussies to internet favourites and experienced broadcasters, all with unique stories and ideas.
“While we initially intended to select five breakfast shows, the quality of the submissions was simply too strong to pass up the opportunity to showcase another great show. We’re excited for listeners to hear six very different Breakfast shows next week, each bringing their own personality, chemistry, and style, to Triple M.”
The six Pilot Week shows will air nationally across Triple M’s metro markets from 6am to 8am, and will be available to stream on LiSTNR, beginning Monday, 15 December.

Commercial Radio & Audio (CRA) has reported total radio revenue of $273.1 million for Q3 2025, down 4% year-on-year (YOY).
Digital audio revenue grew 12.1% to $26.7 million, while metro broadcast revenue totalled $156.7 million (-5% YOY) and regional revenue delivered $89.8 million (-6% YOY).
Broadcast revenue was impacted by soft market conditions but the local commercial industry’s digital performance (+12.1%) outpaced the broader market’s growth of 3.5%.
CRA members now hold 33% of the $82 million sector (up from 30% market share in Q3 2024), according to the latest IAB Australia Internet Advertising Revenue Report for the quarter ending September 2025.
Lizzie Young, CEO of Commercial Radio & Audio, said: “The advertising market has been challenging, but the digital audio growth we’re seeing validates our long-term strategy. Advertisers want efficiency and accountability. They need simplified access to premium inventory that delivers effective outcomes. That’s exactly what we’ve built.”
“The launch of CRA Audio ID in November is tangible evidence on how we’re delivering on that need: a unified cross-network identity solution enabling brands to plan, buy and optimise premium digital inventory across ARN, Nine, Nova Entertainment and Southern Cross Austereo in one simplified workflow.
“It’s also why our Power of Audio campaign matters now more than ever. When budgets are under pressure, we know for a fact that audio delivers: research shows just 11% of media spend allocated to radio can double campaign effectiveness, coupled with creative fluency brands can even double the double. For brands navigating uncertainty, that’s not a nice-to-have – it’s a competitive advantage.”

The Community Broadcasting Association of Australia, together with four Sydney community radio stations, is calling for Expressions of Interest to tender for a Broadcast Technologist contract role. This is a chance for an experienced individual to support technical operations across several station sites in Sydney.

The Sydney initiative will follow a similar collaborative approach, with the contracted provider helping stations maintain and improve their technical infrastructure.
This opportunity will suit those with strong broadcast engineering capability and an interest in working alongside community broadcasters to support reliable services for local audiences.
