Triple J Breakfast co-hosts, Adam Spencer and Wil Anderson, will leave the youth network at the end of the year.

After five years together, they have decided to hit the snooze button and sleep in.

Anderson joined Spencer on breakfast in early 2000 and the chemistry between them was immediately apparent.

Their time together has proven to be extremely fruitful for Triple J, with the pair attracting and maintaining a loyal audience.

Spencer says: “Leaving such an awesome place, and such an incredible job is not an easy decision. But, if you’d really like to discuss it, leave me your home phone number and I’ll call you at 4.15am tomorrow – and the day after – and the day after that!”

Anderson says: “Working at Triple J has, without doubt, been the best job I have ever had, and don’t let the fact that it’s the only job I’ve ever held down in any way detract from that. I intend to spend the rest of the year making the funniest radio we have ever done (plus stealing heaps of stationery!).”

Station Manager, Linda Bracken, says: “We’re sad to see Adam and Wil leave next year, but glad we’ve had the benefit of their unique humour and intelligence on the radio for as long as we have.”

The pair will undertake a national farewell tour of ‘live’ stand up together, called ‘The Last Time’, trekking around the country throughout October and November.
