The Peter Holden Breakfast Show 6 - 9 Weekdays
We're very serious about hiring quality talent here at Classic Rock...
So one morning when we found a talent less lowlife drop kick sleeping at our door-step, we thought hey... this is a guy we could use.
Likewise Peter admits "without this gig, I'd be asking if you'd like fries with that!"... we don't have the heart to tell him that gag's not funny.
So who is Peter Holden:
Peter's 26, a Gemini (you have to tell him
everything twice) and he's obsessed with redheads.
Believe it or not, Pete's been around for awhile in radio, beginning at the age of 15 at a Community station in Melbourne's North West.
Somehow after that he's done radio in all kinds of strange places like Charleville, Moree, Bordertown & Bega.
He enjoys watching the footy, movies, playing poker and is hopeless at cricket. Oh - did we mention his obsessed with redheads?
What's on when...
The Secret Sound...

Each morning at 6.45 & 8.45 you have the chance to win cold hard cash... that's if you correctly guess the secret sound.

Movie Review:

Occasionally we like to lock Peter in the studio for another hour without food or water... so show him some sympathy between 9 and 10am.
