2008 new and old

Over the next 3 weeks regular and new radio presenters will be on air across the nation. Some will be welcomed back, newbies will be given a listen while many will wonder how certain presenters have held on for another year! ( or should that be survey?)

The biggest change for 2008 no doubt is the departure of 2UE's John Laws after his retirement on November 30. Laws will be replaced by Steve Price who unlike Laws will only be heard across NSW.

Melbourne has said goodbye to Triple M's The Cage which will be replaced with Pete Helliar and the ABC's Myf Warhurst.

There have been movements across the nation and The Age has given a comprehensive look at what is happening in Melbourne in 2008. The Age Article here
