Bella and Christian for breakfast, revamped daytime shifts on i98 Illawarra

Christian and Bella will continue as a duo on the i98 breakfast show in 2025, after the departure of Marty Haynes at the end of last year.

Wollongong’s i98FM has revamped its lineup with “a fresh mix of talent and exciting new shows.”

Christian and Bella’s signature blend of fun, music, and local news will have listeners laughing, singing, and staying informed, every weekday from 6:00am. They are “ecstatic to continue waking up the Illawarra in 2025.”

“We’ve built such a rapport with our audience over the past three years, and we can’t wait to continue evolving the show! This will be a massive year for i98,” said Bella and Christian.

Nath will take the reins during workdays, bringing his extensive music knowledge and local insights to the shift.

Maje will “continue his domination as the Illawarra’s number one Drive Show from 2:00pm weekdays. With his infectious energy, controversial opinions and love of music, Maje always entertains.”

i98FM’s Content Director Jaben Ryan is “thrilled to unveil our revamped 2025 lineup. We’ve listened to our audience and crafted a schedule that delivers more fun, the best music, and exciting giveaways. Get ready for a fresh start to your 2025!”

The new lineup will be on air from Monday the 13th of January 2025.
