Adrian Brine departed ARN and Australia in November 2024 for a new role as Group Content Manager for MediaWorks NZ radio stations The Edge, Mai FM and George FM. At the time, and in true radio fashion he ended his LinkedIn post about the move saying:
“For those wondering what my superstar wife will be doing, unfortunately it wouldn’t be a radio post without a good hook…”
The superstar wife in question is Ash London, who joined Adrian in the move across the ditch, alongside their little boy Buddy. She left her full time role with The Hit Network just prior to his birth.
Now, alongside the return of Simon Barnett to the also MediaWorks owned More FM Breakfast team, Ash will also join the station, hosting a new nights program Monday to Thursdays, 7-9pm. Ash’s podcast Hopeless Romantics has also joined Mediaworks’ digital platform rova.
Ash commences on More FM nights on Monday February 10. The first local episode of Hopeless Romantics is out now, celebrating The Princess Bride, with The Edge’s Meg Mansell.
