Wake up and roll into your Thursday with Joel & Mama Mish, along with sassy Liam for JOY Breakfast – a funny, cheeky, and delightfully unpredictable morning show that mixes news, nostalgia, and nonsense with a lot of laughs.
JOY Breakfast with Joel and Mama Mish delivered a powerful and heartfelt morning, opening with a proud-parent moment as Mama Mish shared the joy and protectiveness she feels watching her daughter and her girlfriend navigate young love in public. What followed was an outpouring of supportive messages from listeners, reinforcing that love should never be something young people feel pressured to shrink. The show also featured an important monthly catch-up with Victoria Police LGBTQ+ Community Manager Jeremy Oliver & Senior Constable Kim McKeown (LLO) discussing community engagement, the launch of the new LGBTQIA+ newsletter, intersex advocacy conversations, and the vital role of Liaison Officers at major Pride events. In the second hour, Joel and Mama Mish welcomed CB Bonnar from Pride in Diversity for a thoughtful and grounded conversation about an upcoming International Women’s Day event being held at the Victorian Pride Centre, reflecting on unity, inclusion, and why intentional sapphic spaces matter in a climate that can feel divided. The morning was rounded out with uplifting good-news stories and a celebratory birthday tribute to aussie actress Teresa Palmer
