Joel Creasey Stays Put: Breakfast Radio Dreams Derailed
22 Nov
Summary
- Joel Creasey will remain in his national drive radio slot.
- Nova confirmed no plans to move Creasey to Sydney breakfast radio.
- Creasey has re-signed for another year with his current show.
Months of speculation surrounding Joel Creasey's potential move to Sydney breakfast radio have been definitively put to rest. Contrary to widespread rumors, Nova has confirmed that no discussions, negotiations, or plans are in place to transfer the popular co-host of the 'Ricki-Lee, Tim and Joel' show to the highly competitive morning time slot. Sources within the network have dismissed the rumors as unfounded, emphasizing Creasey's contentment with his current national drive position.
Creasey has officially re-signed for another year with 'Tim, Joel & Ricki-Lee', a trio the network is keen to maintain. The drive slot is described as stable and profitable, with "zero appetite" to dismantle the existing lineup. This decision comes despite industry figures like Craig Bruce fueling speculation about Creasey's potential to challenge established breakfast hosts.
While Creasey's past fill-in stint for a prominent breakfast radio host garnered listener support, industry insiders state he is not currently being positioned as the next challenger. The network appears focused on continuing the success of its current drive-time programming, indicating no immediate plans for a shake-up in the breakfast slot.
