The Dave Noonan Show with Al Plath- 107.3 Triple M Hobart

The Premier Will Hodgman yesterday committed to a takeover of Tas Water angering many councils.

The councils currently own TasWater and have a dividend stream from the utility company.

The Dave Noonan Show's Dave & Al talked to Hobart City Council Lord Mayor Sue Hickey this morning about the takeover and indicated she personally supports the move.

Sue also talked about International Womens' Day and how she believes women should empower themselves.

Cygnet man Brayden Hayes was watching the Hurricanes getting beaten by the Renegades in the BBL in January when he made a rash post on facebook- if the Hurricanes won from there he would run from Hobart to Burnie in his undies.

The rest is history!

A blazing ton by Ben McDermott brought the Hurricanes home and all Brayden's mates remembered his big call!

Now Brayden is only weeks away from a huge charity run- in his undies as promised.

Tasmanian Senator Jacqui Lambie is on board and came into the Dave Noonan Show studio with a scaqntily clad Brayden to explain what is happening and how people can support him.

After the State Government announced that it will be acquring land on Mt Wellington to facilitate the pathway for a potential cable car project Dave & Al asked Hobart whether they wanted to see it go ahead. 

After his younger brother committed suicide, Mitch McPherson decided to turn his family’s personal tragedy into a positive message. 

Mitch started the Speak Up Stay ChatTY campaign – a play on his brother Ty’s name – that encourages conversations about the taboo subject of suicide.  

In 2014, Mitch and six friends ran the 330 kilometres from Burnie to Hobart in four days, raising more than $40,000 and gaining state-wide recognition.

In March, after a knee reconstruction Mitch and his mates are off to do it again. Dave & AL talked to Mitch about how his body will stand up to the ordeal and how we can all support this great charity.

The State Government has announced it will be acquring  property on Mt Wellington in a surprise show of support for the long-running cable car proposal.

This move has breathed new life into the plans of cable car proponent Adrian Bold who chatted to Dave & Al this morning about what impact the Government's ddecision will have.

We had a huge announcement this morning on the Dave Noonan Show- Elton John is coming to town in September!

Dave & Al talked to the man who made it happen, proud Tasmanian and legendary promoter Michael Chugg about how he made it happen.

With Midnight Oil coming to town on November 1 Dave and Al caught up with drummer Rob Hirst and bassman "Bones" Hillman. This Pt 2 of their chat with the boys who love Hobart!

This week on Triple M Midnight Oil announced their reunion tour, Great Circles 2017 with a Hobart show at the DEC on November 1. Dave & Al had the privilege of talking to rock royalty this morning, Oils drummer Rob Hirst and bass player "Bones" Hillman talked about getting back together, playing songs they had forgotten and life on the road. Don't miss part 2 of the chat!

Dave and Al chat to Sean about the difficulties of long distance relationships and whether people should move for love. He's up against some tough challenges given that his new bride Susan lives in W.A. 

During the 2016 Olympics in Rio Triple M was giving away a trip to Rio in 2017 with a brilliant comp we called 5 RIngs to Rio! You had to answer your phone withing 5 rings to win- genius!

Mark won and he leaves Hobart tomorrow on the trip of a lifetime with his fiancee. As he describes it the trip will be a honeymoon...with a difference!
