Southern Cross Austereo’s national head of radio sales Nikki Rooke was the host at an event in Sydney recently that introduced the Hit Network’s all-star drive show teams to advertisers and agency executives.
It was a very wet, cold and generally miserable night, but that didn’t stop SCA from filling an event space inside Justin Hemmes’s Slip Inn.
The four announcers hosting the double drive show shift – Carrie Bickmore and Tommy Little from Carrie & Tommy, and Dave Hughes and Kate Langbroek from Hughesy & Kate – were in Sydney after broadcasting their shows from different Sydney locations.
The hosts were joined by Hit Network content director Gemma Fordham, who talked about the success of the two shows. Carrie & Tommy has been on air for 18 months, while Hughesy & Kate moved from KIIS to Hit earlier this year.
