"It has been the greatest joy and honour of my life to host The Breakfast Spread every weekday for the past seven years. Sharing mornings and music with the incredible PBS community—my favourite people on Planet Earth—has been nothing short of a dream, and it’s something I hope to continue for many moons to come……
"However, as you might imagine, waking up at 5 a.m. five days a week, alongside my increasingly busy life as a DJ, has started to take a bit of a toll. That’s why I’m absolutely thrilled to share that my dear friend and former co-host, Claire Dickson, will be stepping in to host Mondays and Tuesdays from 2025 onward!
"Claire’s impeccable taste and deep knowledge of music, combined with her warm, brilliant & good company (pardon the pun), make her the perfect fit for these mornings. I couldn’t be happier to have her by my side, sharing this time slot with me.
"Rest assured, I'm not going anywhere. I’ll still be with you from 6–9 a.m. every Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday and I’m so excited to continue sharing this special time of day with you all. Thank you for your support, your ears, and your hearts—I’m endlessly grateful for this community."

Regular listeners may remember that for a period in 2018 Claire joined Milo as co-host of The Breakfast Spread so she’s no stranger to early starts and to our committed breakfast listeners. Most other listeners will know Claire from her weekly show Good Company on Tuesday evenings.
"I am absolutely over the moon to have been offered this role as the Monday/Tuesday Breakfast Spread host. It feels like a dream come true to be able to bring music and hopefully joy to the PBS listeners on an even more regular basis. This station means the world to me and I can't wait for next year and all that it brings with it. Yay!!!!!!"
- Claire Dickson
Between now and January 17 PBS listeners can expect to hear from some familiar voices and a few surprise guests as we hear The Summer Spread every weekday between 6am and 9am. If ever you’re missing your Milo fix you can always listen back to recent episodes at pbsfm.org.au.
