Huge congratulations to Geraldine Hickey, who took out the award for the Most Outstanding Show at this year’s Melbourne International Comedy Festival. We’re so happy for you, Gez. What a massive achievement!

Some very exciting news, everyone: Areej Nur is back! Areej previously presented the incredible Wednesday morning show The Rap and is now jumping into the Thursday 7pm to 8pm timeslot with her brand new program ALL CAPS.

To celebrate April Amnesty, Triple R is excited to bring you a bunch of special, live-streamed performances across the month. First up is Kee’ahn, who brings her lush melodies and rich vocals to the RRR airwaves, when she joins Good Fortune’s Jazz Feldy. Watch the live stream right here.

“Victorian people might know about Aboriginal culture in a broad sense, but what about local culture? What about local language, the local traditions and the histories of this place? Those are the things that help you to identify with and feel like this is our history, not just Aboriginal history – it’s our history.”

Devastating news over the weekend that we lost Daphne Camf. Daphne was a formidable singer, songwriter and synthesist for many well-loved and often-played bands on Triple R, including SaD, NO ZU, Rat Vs Possum and more. She also regularly co-hosted the program No Pants with Sara Savage on Triple R on Sunday nights in 2013.

Triple R’s April Amnesty fundraiser is nearly here. We were blown away by the number of people who supported Triple R last year – but to weather the full impacts of COVID-19, we need to ask for your support again.

Due to COVID-19’s impact on Triple R’s sponsorship revenue, listener support remains essential to keep Triple R – forever. If you can, please consider donating and subscribing during April Amnesty. You’ll go in the draw to score some sweet prizes, too!

A year ago, when lockdown hit, Triple R presenter Steve Cross started dropping weekly playlists on Spotify under the banner A Quiet Life. It now features well over 1000 tracks and runs on a parallel track to Beat Orgy. Think of it as a weekly bonus disk to the Saturday evening radio show – for those of you who simply need even more music in your lives.

Triple R listeners are in for a treat: June Jones will join Out On The Patio's Kate Kingsmill for a special live stream performance of her new album Leafcutter – a collection of rich, symphonic synth-pop alongside sparse and heartbreaking ballads – today. Watch the live stream right here.

Corey Tutt – founder of DeadlyScience, CSIRO Indigenous STEM Champion 2019, Eureka Prize finalist (and much more) – talks to Daniel James, host of The Mission.

This time five years ago, something completely unexpected occurred: Triple R was flooded. Check out the chaos, the damage, and – finally – the recovery.

Great news to kick off the new year, everyone: a raft of exciting programming changes are taking place!
