Southern Cross Austereo (SCA) today announced a new two-year partnership with Orange Sky and Diabetes Australia as part of its flagship charity program, SCA Embrace in 2026.

Since its launch in 2016, SCA Embrace has reflected SCA’s ongoing commitment to corporate social responsibility, supporting charities that have a meaningful impact on the lives of Australians. 

Through the partnership, Orange Sky and Diabetes Australia will receive significant in-kind advertising campaigns, strategic support and consumer insights across SCA’s radio and digital platforms. SCA employees will also be supported to contribute through volunteering opportunities, community initiatives and advocacy support.

Stephen Haddad, SCA Chief Operating Officer said: “We believe in the power of media to create meaningful impact. Orange Sky and Diabetes Australia are both delivering vital support to Australians at critical moments in their lives, and we’re proud to welcome them as our SCA Embrace charity partners for 2026–2027. Through SCA Embrace, we’re able to amplify important conversations, increase awareness and help connect communities with the support they need.”

Established in Brisbane in 2014, Orange Sky is the world’s first free mobile laundry and shower service, supporting people experiencing homelessness or hardship through clean clothes, warm showers and genuine human connection. Orange Sky currently operates 83 services across 55 locations in Australia, staffed by volunteers who provide a safe, positive and supportive environment for those doing it tough.

Lucas Patchett, Orange Sky Co-Founder and CEO said: “Homelessness and hardship is a reality that can impact anyone. A rental increase, an unexpected expense or the loss of employment is sometimes all it takes for someone to fall on tough times. As cost-of-living pressures continue to rise, we’re seeing more Australians — many for the first time — reaching out to us for support, and we’ve never been more in demand.

“We are incredibly excited and proud to be named one of the 2026–2027 SCA Embrace charity partners. This partnership will help amplify conversations about homelessness and hardship and strengthen the impact of our services across the country.”

Established in 1937, and the second oldest diabetes organisation in the world, Diabetes Australia is the national peak body supporting people living with, and at risk of, diabetes. 

Working in collaboration with people with lived experience and the health sector, Diabetes Australia are leading the national response to Australia’s largest health crisis. Their work focuses on supporting people with diabetes to live well, providing information, resources, and support services as well as investing in prevention, and reducing the impact of diabetes on people, health systems and society. Diabetes Australia advocates for positive change that will create a healthier future for everyone.

Justine Cain, Diabetes Australia Group CEO said: “Every five minutes an Australian is diagnosed with diabetes, yet community awareness of the risks and symptoms remains low, and widespread misinformation continues to fuel stigma and discrimination.”

“We are grateful for the opportunity that SCA’s Embrace partnership presents. Increasing access to accurate information about diabetes will have a positive impact across the community, and we’re excited to work with SCA to help drive greater understanding and support for Australians living with diabetes.”

Over the past decade since its inception in 2016, SCA Embrace has delivered hundreds of millions of dollars in-kind advertising to Australian charities, leveraging SCA’s national reach and expertise to help organisations drive awareness, education and meaningful community impact.

NOVA Entertainment today announced that Nova Drive co-host Joel Creasey will launch his own radio show across the Nova Network, which is set to make its debut in April.

The new show marks an exciting new chapter for the hugely talented comedian and co-host of the Nova Network’s highly successful Ricki-Lee, Tim and Joel Drive show.

Joel’s brand new national show will broadcast live at lunchtime on weekdays, where he is set to bring his signature quick wit, high energy and unmistakable flair to a fresh lunchtime audience.

Said Joel, “I’m doing a Ginger Spice and made the decision to go it solo! (I’ve waited over 20 years to say that!). Scintillating references like that and oh-so-very-much-more you can expect from The Joel Creasey Show launching Australia-wide across the Nova Network! It’s been an utter joy to be a member of the national Drive program for the past five years, and an honour to play a part in such a legacy show.

“I’ve learnt so much from Tim and Ricki-Lee and am so excited for us and wish them all the best (for their early alarms, that is, did you really think I’d be getting up at that time?!). As someone whose GIG it is to GIGGLE – and share that with our listeners – some of my greatest, bellyaching laughs have been with Tim and Ricki-Lee which I will forever cherish. And previously, of course, with the gorgeous Kate Ritchie.

“I’m off to the boardroom (*note to self: find out where the boardroom is) for the next little while to concoct something very special which, yes, I’m aware is cliche promotional slang. But if you’re familiar with my work, life, lunacy and sheer chaos that seems to follow me, strap in for a wild ride! Chat shortly, yeah? Zigah-zigah, Australia!”

Nova Network’s Group Programming Director, Brendan Taylor added, “Joel has been instrumental to the success of Ricki-Lee, Tim & Joel, which has consistently held the number one spot in its timeslot. We’re thrilled to announce this new show. Joel is an immensely talented broadcaster and comedian, and this is a fantastic opportunity to showcase his talents in an entirely new part of the day. We’re excited to add another world class talent to our new weekday line-up.”

NOVA Entertainment CEO, Peter Charlton said, “Nova has proven, with the success of The Chrissie Swan Show, an ability to create new appointments-to-listen in the workday. Joel is an enormous talent and this new lunchtime show highlights our commitment to great content for listeners and new commercial opportunities for brands.”

Further details about The Joel Creasey Show will be announced in due course.

NOVA Entertainment today announced brand new line-ups for their Sydney Breakfast and national Drive shows on the Nova FM Network, launching Monday, February 9.

Nova 96.9’s new Sydney breakfast show will be Ricki-Lee & Tim, hosted by chart-topping recording artist and television presenter Ricki-Lee and award-winning radio broadcaster, Tim Blackwell.

A consistent number one show in their current Drive timeslot, Ricki-Lee and Tim are set to build on the incredible legacy of Nova FM Sydney breakfast shows, delivering a live show from Sydney, for Sydney, every weekday from 6am to 9am.

An exciting new Nova Network project for hugely talented Drive co-host and comedian Joel Creasey will also be revealed on-air today on the Ricki-Lee, Tim & Joel Drive show.

Also launching on February 9 is Nova’s new national Drive show, Fitzy, Wippa & Kate. Hosted by three of Australia’s most loved personalities, Ryan ‘Fitzy’ Fitzgerald, Michael ‘Wippa’ Wipfli and Kate Ritchie, the show will be broadcast live from 4pm to 6pm every weekday across Australia.

Following on from record audience results in 2025 for their current Sydney Breakfast show, all three presenters have hosted Nova’s national Drive show during their extensive careers, captivating audiences Australia-wide.

Following the Drive show each weekday, Ricki-Lee & Tim will also be on-air from 6pm for an hour-long national show, underscoring Nova’s commitment to delivering premium content across the entire day.

On her new role on Nova 96.9’s Sydney Breakfast show, Ricki-Lee said, “I’ve had so much fun working with Tim and Joel over the past few years and I am constantly blown away by how much people love our show all around the country. Stepping into Sydney Breakfast is a huge honour, and I can’t wait to wake up with Sydney and start every day making the people of this beautiful city smile – and to do it alongside one of my best friends makes it even sweeter. Tim and I are so ready for this. I can’t wait!”

Tim Blackwell added, “It’s been a dream of mine to host Sydney Breakfast my entire career. The fact I get to create a new show, in Sydney, for Sydney, with my best mate and wake up with the greatest city in the world every morning is a privilege that I don’t take for granted.”

Nova Network’s Group Programming Director, Brendan Taylor said, “Ricki-Lee, Tim & Joel have been a consistent number one show in their timeslot, and now is the right moment for a new sound for Sydney. Ricki-Lee and Tim are perfectly positioned to bring something exciting to Sydney Breakfast. They’re two of the best in the business and will continue to build on the incredible legacy of previous Nova Sydney breakfast line-ups, while delivering an exciting new show for Sydneysiders that’s live and local, every day.”

On the new Drive show, Taylor added, “Fitzy, Wippa and Kate are a powerhouse combination and their chemistry, humour and heart resonate deeply with audiences. They’ve delivered excellent results together and this move to Drive allows us to share their magic with all of Australia.”

On joining Nova 96.9’s new Drive show, Kate Ritchie said, “I’ve absolutely loved my time with the boys on Sydney Breakfast and I’m thrilled we now get to share our show with all of Australia. My morning alarm is ready and waiting to be set for packing school lunch and doing drop-off again with the beauty of entertaining our loyal listeners on their drive home. It’ll be an exciting evolution for all of us”

Added Michael ‘Wippa’ Wipfli, “Fourteen, fifteen, who knows how many years we’ve been doing breakfast? I was roughly aged twelve, Fitzy’s voice hadn’t even dropped when we started and Kate is still the rose between two very rough thorns, But the time has come to share the love with the rest of the country. So this odd throuple is packing up the family and moving to a national Drive show. Come with us, it will be fun.”

Ryan ‘Fitzy’ Fitzgerald said, “I’m so proud of what we’ve achieved with our audience in Sydney over the past 15 years, but equally excited to open up to our national family. It gives us an opportunity to travel around to see everyone and more importantly, claim all interstate trips as ‘work events’”.

NOVA Entertainment CEO, Peter Charlton said, “A key ingredient of NOVA’s success has been consistency, so we’ve made these changes with consideration and a long-term view. This evolution is all about continuing to give our incredible talent the perfect platforms to deliver great content, market-leading audiences and trusted environments for our advertising partners.”

SCA has unveiled an innovative new brand campaign for LiSTNR, Australia’s leading audio brand, launching on Wednesday, January 28. 

The fully integrated campaign, celebrates LiSTNR’s deep understanding of Australians’ diverse listening tastes, highlighting how LiSTNR creates and curates content locally for every mood, moment, and interest. “What Aussie ears want to hear” is a brand platform that reinforces LiSTNR’s position as Australia’s leading audio brand, connecting with audiences wherever they are. The campaign will roll out across TV, cinema, digital, social, out-of-home, radio and digital audio. 

The campaign, via AMOK Creative, brings LiSTNR’s personality to life through inventive, playful creative, personifying the unique audio tastes of Australians via visually arresting “singing ears”. The unique tastes of each ear reflect the diversity of Australian listeners, from RnB loving commuters to footy-enthusiastic remote workers, bringing a visual representation to the platform’s rich, locally curated audio content and celebrating the uniquely personal experience of listening.

The singing ears were crafted locally through a unique blend of practical and visual effects. Physical, oversized silicone ears were created and puppeteered in rhythm with the music, then seamlessly integrated into the final scene. The films were created in collaboration with Hooves and Electric Sheep Music, while all other campaign assets were developed in-house at SCA.

The campaign kicks off on January 28th running in bursts for the remainder of the financial year and beyond. The integrated campaign will run nationally across free to air, BVOD and subscription TV, Hoyts cinemas, YouTube, TikTok, Meta, Hit, Triple M and LiSTNR. In Sydney and Melbourne it will run on large and small format OOH and transit.

Naomi Gorringe, SCA’s Head of Marketing said: “In a media landscape flush with advertising messages, this campaign is designed to grab peoples’ attention and entertain them. By turning the intimate act of listening into something visible, unexpected and unmistakably LiSTNR, we’re showing how deeply we understand our audience and their tastes. Marketers now know ‘the extraordinary cost of dull’, so we set out to create something far from it – it’s bold, memorable, and entirely ownable, exactly the kind of creativity that positions LiSTNR as Australia’s leading audio brand.”

Michael Dawson, Creative Director at AMOK Creative added: ‘Given there are some global players in this category, standing out was non-negotiable. We set out to create a campaign that was bold, memorable, ownable…and a little bit weird. We found some very willing production partners in Hooves and Electric Sheep, and had a lot of fun bringing the concept to life.’

Stephen Haddad, SCA’s Chief Operating Officer said: “LiSTNR is Australia’s leading audio brand because we truly understand what Australians love to listen to. Built on the scale and diversity of our audience, LiSTNR brings together over 800 podcasts alongside live sport, music and news to soundtrack every mood, moment and interest.

“This year marks an exciting new phase of growth for LiSTNR, as we continue to expand our podcast offering and invest in innovation that makes listening more personal, intuitive and impactful. This campaign brings that to life, celebrating the deeply personal relationship audiences have with audio.”

LiSTNR is Australia’s leading digital audio platform, offering free, compelling content including SCA’s FM, AM, and DAB+ radio stations, live AFL, NRL, and international cricket coverage, over 50 music playlists, local news, and more than 800 podcasts from top Australian and global creators.
