Hot Bread

Grab the roses, warm up the bakery, and get ready to fall a little bit in love tonight.

This Valentine’s Day edition of Hot Bread isn’t about candlelit dinners or awkward speed dating — it’s about the real love stories happening every day inside Australia’s small and medium businesses.

Joining the show is special guest Chris Bayliss from Judo Bank, dedicating a stack of love songs to the incredible businesses across the country who open early, stay late, serve their communities and keep the dream alive.

Expect warm banter, heartfelt shout-outs, and a playlist packed with classics and joy-fuelled anthems including You’ve Got a Friend in Me, Higher Love, I’ll Be There For You, Signed Sealed Delivered, Ain’t No Mountain High Enough, Love Shack and more — all sent with love to the businesses powering Australia.

So whether you’re running the shop, driving the van, prepping the kitchen, or finally clocking off for the night… this one’s for you.

Turn it up, send the love out, and let the Hot Bread Valentine’s magic begin.

Remember – Look out for one another, Be Kind, Protect our Dolls, and Always remember HOT BREAD is for Absolutely Everybody.

Are you ready to enter the bedroom with the Queen of Pop? With the Fabulous Adz.

Tonight is the second last show for the summer season of Hot Bread. Once again you and I will take a look at another Iconic Album Review.

I especially want to thank each and every one of you amazing listeners, for your support, messages and for listening in this week.

This week I suggest turning up your sound system because it’s going to be quite the show devoted to the Queen of Pop, Madonna.

You’re going to be hearing an Iconic review of “Bedtime Stories: The Untold Chapter.” This project is not a book or a traditional biography, but a 30th-anniversary EP and deluxe reissue of Madonna’s 1994 album. It was curated in collaboration with producer Stuart Price to highlight the “lost” R&B and Hip-Hop roots of the era. Plus you can get your dancing shoes on and listen out for the following hits like the title track Bedtime Story, Secret, Survival and Don’t Stop, something that Madonna certainly live up to fabulously well.

Enough chattin’. Let’s get to the dance floor.

 So lock eyes with that special person, entice them to the dance floor and let the magic happen. What happens next is up to you. 

Remember – Look out for one another, Be Kind, Protect our Dolls, and Always remember HOT BREAD is for Absolutely Everybody.

The post Madonna’s Bedtime Stories: The Untold Chapter 24 January 2026 appeared first on Hot Bread.

This week we are pushing back the coffee table and making our living room a dance floor. Open the curtains, or close them. Your choice, because we are going to be dancing like nobody’s watching.

We are kicking off the show with an all time favorite of anyone with any musical taste at all, Dolly Parton’s 9 to 5, but with a twist. Y.O.G.A. (You’re Only Good Always) is bringing you the beat that will keep you moving for the whole show.

Bananarama and Young Divas will be letting you loose on a Cruel Summer.

Taking you back to 1993, Beautiful World will bring you a rocksteady beat, while the Lightning Kids remind us of DJ Sammy’s Boys Of Summer.

Our freshly baked beat, this week, Is Molly Grace, with her amazingly catchy tune, Heaven Sent, that will bring out all your lesbian sass, while the Presets let you know that this boy is infact in love.

Remember – Look out for one another, Be Kind, Protect our Dolls, and always remember, Pride doesn’t need permission..

The post Dance Like Nobody’s Watching 17 January 2026 appeared first on Hot Bread.

This week is the 50th episode of Hot Bread, starting in 2024 as a two hour show, filling in for Katie. Then Hot Bread evolved to be a one hour show with floor fillers, getting you ready for your night out on the town.

Now Hot Bread has evolved again, just within 50 shows, to involve four wonderful hosts, sharing different styles/genres from each wonderful presenter.

Tonight we are having a fantastic celebration, with some of the campest songs from the last 12 months, judging by your comments and requests, and a few freshly baked beats for good measure.

Our final set will kick us back to a wonderful song by Madonna, remixed by LSR/CTY and Annabel, before finishing our set with two new freshly baked beats by Maike Liselot and Superlover.

So lock eyes with that special person, entice them to the dance floor and let the magic happen. What happens next is up to you.

Remember – Look out for one another, Be Kind, Protect our Dolls, and never forget your fabulocity.

*(Tonight’s show is dedicated to my dear friend Geoffrey Parker. 1/10/73-6/01/26 May he rest in power)

The post The 50th Show!!!!! 10 January 2026 appeared first on Hot Bread.

Welcome to the first Episode of Hot Bread for 2026. I’m sure you all had a fabulous New year. So we are continuing to start the New Year Right with some camp classics (The Camper The Damper The Better)

Beginning the show with some warm ups by Celine Dion and Sebastian Ingrosso, A Kate Bush classic, by Killian K and Paul Kold and a Cutting Crew classic by Nicola Schenetti and Rivaz (Bringing you a beautiful Rufus Du Sol feel).

Keep your ears peeled for the new number by our very own Dean Misdale, with their new release of It’s Raining Men. It’s just days old.  Followed by a classic we know from Priscilla Queen Of The Desert, reimagined by Emese Zaduba and Charlene.

What would a Camp Classics show be without a tune that takes you right up to the line with Innuendo, when the boomtang dogs bring you their Squeeze Toy to play with?

Then lets slow down the show with a 1985 classic by the Outfield, remixed by Diplo, and another freshly baked beat by Romy and Paul Woolford.

The Camp classics continue right up to the very end with Shakira turning our dance floor into a zoo.
