Brian ‘Spoonman’ Carlton will host a brand-new breakfast show, Brian Carlton – The Spoonman, on Triple M Hobart from next month.

The veteran radio presenter launched onto the national stage as the youngest News Talk host on Sydney’s 2UE in 1990 and rated number one within a year. He has had an extensive radio career since then.

On his move from Launceston to Hobart, Carlton said: “Name a better job than waking up the greatest city in Australia on Triple M.

“Triple M is my spiritual broadcast home and I’m stoked and privileged to be joining Triple M Hobart for breakfast. If you like your breakfast radio well stirred, I hope you’ll join me in Hobart. I can’t wait!”

Southern Cross Austereo Tasmania executive GM Ally Bradley, said: “We are excited to welcome Brian Carlton – the Spoonman to our Hobart team and back to the Triple M family.  Brian brings a wealth of experience tackling the biggest issues inside and out of Tasmania.”

Carlton will be on Triple M Hobart from Monday, 18 November from 6-9am.
