Ben HarveyLiam Stapleton and Brooke Boney will return to triple j Breakfast in 2018.

Gen Fricker will continue hanging out with Lewis Hobba on Drive until Veronica Milsom returns from maternity leave later in the year. This leaves an opening prime for the return of the Ratdog, Alex Dyson, as he fills in for Gen on Lunch for the first part of 2018.

Good Nights presenter Linda Marigliano steps up to Mornings, replacing Zan Rowe. In her new role Linda will have even more chances to exercise her encyclopaedic music knowledge every weekday, and hang out with everyone’s favourite science expert, Doctor Karl, each Thursday.

Linda Marigliano says “It’s been such a blast presenting new music in the evenings, getting those hot jams out there and winding those windows dowwnn!

“I feel so privileged to have had the opportunity to create this Good Nights beast six years ago, and oh boy it’s been a party every night. 

But I love to shake things up, and I am honoured to follow on from my dear friend and legend Zan Rowe, bringing my true music nerd to triple j Mornings.”
 
In Linda’s place, Ballarat born and bred Bridget Hustwaite takes over Good Nights. Bridget has had a massive year regularly filling in on Lunch and Home & Hosed we’re proud to add her to our permanent weekday programming in 2018.
