Hosted by beloved Melbourne broadcasters Jason \u2018Jase\u2019 Hawkins and Lauren Phillips, next Friday\u2019s launch date will treat Melbourne listeners to their first taste of the eagerly awaited new show, ahead of the Victorian Labour Day long weekend.<\/p>\n
The three-hour debut show is set to be an exciting one, as the dynamic duo reunite to bring their unique blend of unbeatable chemistry, light-hearted humour and authenticity back to the Melbourne airwaves.<\/p>\n
The hugely popular hosting team firmly established their place on Melbourne radio when they debuted their first show together in 2021, leading to record ratings figures when the show concluded at the end of 2023.<\/p>\n
Jase and Lauren\u2019s new home at Nova 100 was announced in early February, with the news attracting an overwhelmingly positive response from listeners.<\/p>\n
Lauren Phillips said, \u201cWe\u2019ve been genuinely overwhelmed by the response over the past few months and in particular the excitement of the last few weeks. No one is more excited to be back together and back on air than the two of us. We are counting down the minutes until next Friday. We\u2019ve got plenty of stories to tell and lots of catching up to do. Melbourne, we are back and can\u2019t wait to have a laugh with you.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Jase Hawkins said, \u201cThe response from everyone has been overwhelming and we really appreciate it. It\u2019s added a lot of pressure on that first show and those three hours of work, so I do feel we\u2019ll need the weekend off to recover. Jokes aside, we are so pumped to have our dysfunctional family back together and we can\u2019t wait to get on the air at Nova and catch up with everyone.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Brendan Taylor, Group Programming Director for the Nova Network, said, \u201cWe\u2019re so excited for Jase and Lauren to kick off their show next Friday.
