Footy Fixture Card
In 1990, sleepy old Radio 2KY pulled off the radio coup of the decade by poaching the high rating commentary team of Hollywood and Zorba. They also grabbed a handful of other Macquarie Radio on-air personalities including Mike Bailey, Ian Trent and Peter Shanahan, who joined existing Morning announcer Ray Warren at the Trades and Labour Council owned station.
The result was an instant lift in the sound of the station and for a short time, it was a case of, off with the cardigans and on with the footy jumper.
Tuned In
Unsold radio inventory is a great place to flog the benefits of advertising on radio.
This jingle package from the late 80s, was created by the then Radio Marketing Bureau and distributed by reel-to-reel tape to all commercial stations.
As well as generic, standalone tracks, the package contained inserts where local stations could ad their own message.
Music written by Idris Jones and Ray Heckendorf was Creative Director. Tracks were recorded by Trevor Johnson and Bill Dowling.
The voice is by an Australian actor who has now hit the big time in Hollywood. Add a comment below if you think you know.

Nibblos Launch
Hypotheticals can be a bit hit and miss.
This was tightly scripted and rehearsed. After lunch and three full takes, to keep things fresh for the panelists, the autocue was changed, and a surprise ending added.
All the responses are therefore real and the result was a vehicle that showed off the best attributes of radio and defined it as a viable and credible advertising medium.
