Hamish and Andy go daily on Today Network

Hamish and Andy

Hamish Blake and Andy Lee will have a daily show again next year.

The Today Network presenters will be hosting a new one-hour morning show from Tuesday to Friday, from 9-10am. They will also be moving their Friday drivetime show to Mondays.

It is likely the daily show will feature pre-recorded links taped just before or after the Monday night show. A spokesman for Southern Cross Austereo told Mumbrella that the logistics for this were still being finalised.

Fifi Box and Jules Lund will now cover the drive slot from Tuesday to Friday instead of Monday to Thursday.

The move comes two years after the duo quit the daily drivetime slot.

The duo announced the news on air, saying: “After two years of Fridays, we are honoured to accept the promotion to Mondays. Hopefully, with a good performance, we can graduate to Tuesdays by the year 2034 with the goal of being promoted to Wednesdays [the most difficult radio day as everyone knows] when we hit our early 60s.”

Craig Bruce, head of content said: “We’re really excited about 2013. The Today Network line-up is going to be our best ever filled with Australian radio’s biggest stars and hottest shows.”
