Seems like all this comedy/footy programming is coming to and end. Shitty. Regular radio is boring as fu**.
Huge cuts at Triple M even before Covid. I think I said 12 months ago that they could easily pull out of AFL / NRL coverage at any point although it sounds like that might be safe for now.
JB is triple M. Cut him and the station sucks
Stop advertising it as JB and Billy then when JB is never on.
Reckon it’s nothing to do with cost cutting. Regular listener and I think Eddie and Darcy would have called a mutual agreement to end it. They’ve been at each other’s throats during this COVID saga. There’s been huge tension between them. Darcy, who I think is a flog, has been attacking Dan Andrews and his restrictions all year while Eddie has been defending him. There has been many heated arguments on air.
thats interesting. eddie could defend him....all the way from qld haha
ha, that's the thing; it tries to be all things to all people: news/serious, sport, 'comedy', plus the fake cackler chick in the background. It's a bit the radio version of The Project
If her constant cackling isn't fake, then she's not quite right. Having said all that, I haven't listened to the show for ages, so I dunno if she still does it
the old mysterious person in the background creating questions and intrigue.ha, that's the thing; it tries to be all things to all people: news/serious, sport, 'comedy', plus the fake cackler chick in the background. It's a bit the radio version of The Project
She's been around for yonks. Like more than 5 years.While I'm at it, that Rosie girl on Triple M complained one day about a tweet referring to her as the token laughing chick. She said: "fair dinkum, if we get ONE more message saying I'm just the token laughing girl, I tell ya...."
Is she f'kn serious?
Crikey! She's been at Austereo since 1995
And has been there for good reason, does a good job. If the only fault you can find is the tone of her laughing then I reckon she's doing alright.....
Yup used to be on the rub aswell. Surprised people are just noticing her now.
With those kinds of salaries you have to pull in bigger ratings. 3AW pulling four times as many which is amazing.
i dont recall her on the rub per se. Perhaps more noticable now because of social media and the like
They always refer to her
Better known on The Rub as "Josemary". Pretty sure it was a take on José anyway
Yeah for sure, initially when I heard the news my mind went straight to budget cuts in line with what appears to have been happening over the past few years at triple m... however upon listening to that this afternoon is seems a lot more like the time was right to get out and give someone else a crack.I always had a lot of time for Rosie. For someone who is primarily there as a producer she contributed a lot and essentially became a part of the line up.
Here is a link to the audio of the announcement.

Ed mentions in there that he'd keep going until his kids were finished high school, which is happening end of this year. Maybe it's just one of those things where it's all just fallen into line at the right time.
