The Triple M Rush Hour with JB & Billy expands to Western Australia

The Triple M network has unveiled its national Drive show line up for 2025. It marks the end of the Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth Rush Hour shows and the expansion of the current The Rush Hour with JB & Billy Drive show into Western Australia and South Australia.

In Victoria and Tasmania, the blend of sports chat and banter between James ‘JB’ Brayshaw and Billy Brownless has been rating well for more than 15 years, and earlier this year saw its best survey results since 2019.

James Brayshaw and Billy Brownless said: “We’re excited that our live show will now be extended for our listeners in South and Western Australia, which are legendary footy states with an incredible history of successes, as Bill knows because he attends all their premiership reunions. We also want to acknowledge the Adelaide and Perth Rush Hour teams, many of whom are great mates, and congratulate them on their shows. We don’t underestimate the opportunity we have been given and we are focused on creating a show that honours them and their listeners.”

SCA Chief Content Officer, Dave Cameron, said: “Triple M in 2025 will continue its transformative content approach for the continued audience growth that we have seen in the last two years on Australia’s legendary Triple M Network, by delivering already well-loved shows that will both extend into new markets next year in Drive.

“JB and Billy are already household names in Australia’s southern states and have a legion of fans in Adelaide and Perth, so we know that listeners will tune in for their unique blend of serious sport chats and banter, which can only come from decades of friendship,” said Cameron.

“We sincerely thank our existing state Rush Hour shows for their hard work and commitment over the last few years and look forward to a different approach nationally in 2025 with more exciting announcements to come soon.”
