Kate Ritchie to host NOVA’s brekkie for the next month
Actress and regular NOVA guest presenter Kate Ritchie will be hosting the breakfast show for the next month.
The announcement:
Kate Ritchie, one of NOVA’s favourite femmes and a regular seat warmer for Nova’s Fitzy & Wippa throughout summer, returns to Nova a little earlier this year and will be heard over the next four weeks on Nova’s breakfast Show.
Kate, a Sydney girl through and through, and adored by Nova listeners for her down to earth personality will be a regular contributor to Fitzy & Wippa’s show over the coming weeks.
She’s also put her hand up to host breakfast alongside former Perth breakfast host and Channel 10’s ‘The Project’ regular Sam Mac, when the boys take a break in June. Top Bird.
Fitzy & Wippa said of Kate’s contribution to the breakfast show “We consider ourselves the ‘Yabbie Creek’ of breakfast shows so we are forever grateful that Kate hasn’t forgotten the little people. We love you Sally.”
Said Assistant Program Director Irene Hulme of Kate Ritchie’s return to NOVA said: “Kate is a friend of the show & we love hearing her perspective on life. Fitzy & Wippa welcome her back to the breakfast show for a weekly segment leading up to her taking the reins for two weeks co-hosting with Sam Mac whilst Fitzy and Wippa take a break.”
Said Kate Ritchie of her return to Nova Breakfast: “I’m not quite sure why I keep getting the call up. I figure it’s because I’m not too bad at this radio caper or the complete opposite and the boys know their jobs are safe for as long as I’m filling in! Either way, I’m keen to be back on air sharing the cold winter mornings with Sam Mac and Nova’s loyal listeners”

At last Nova have realised that Fitzy and Wippa’s rating have stalled at around 6% and are willing to try something new to break the 7% barrier.
Sounds different.
