Hayley Pearson will join Max Burford on the Mix 102.3 breakfast show in 2025, after Ali Clarke decided to take time out from radio after a breast cancer diagnosis earlier this year. The show will be known as Hayley & Max in the Morning.
Hayley said:
“I never thought I’d do brekky radio again, but here I am — so excited to be heading back to my first love: radio! More than anything, I’m just so pumped to have fun and genuine laughs with Max and the whole Mix family every morning!
“What makes this even more special is that when I was 15, I did my Year 10 work experience at Mix 102.3. It was at that moment that I realised I wanted to be a radio announcer, so this feels like a sweet little full-circle moment.”
Hayley is familiar to the Adelaide audience after filling in for Ali earlier and having previously worked on breakfast radio at both Nova and SAFM. She currently also co-hosts Channel 9’s HelloSA and is the co-creator of Adelady.
Hayley & Max in the Morning commences on Monday, 20 January at 6am.
