Nova’s Live & Unrestricted, hosted by Tim Blackwell and Kate Ritchie, will aim to provide listeners with an escape from restrictions, dropping every Saturday morning in August on the Nova Network.
Following the overwhelming response to Nova’s Kate, Tim & Joel Live in Lockdown, a one-off special to keep up the spirits of listeners locked down in Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide, the team decided it was the right time to return to Saturday mornings.
With every state under some sort of restrictions right now, and people not able to live the life they want to, Nova is cutting through the red tape and going Live & Unrestricted every Saturday throughout August.
Tim Blackwell and Kate Ritchie, from Nova’s Kate, Tim & Joel drive show, will be joined by a range of well-known friends including Fitzy from Nova 96.9’s Fitzy & Wippa breakfast show, Karl Stefanovic and many more.
Listeners will also be able to request the songs they want to hear during the show, via the Nova Player.
Tim Blackwell said, “Whether you’re locked down with nothing to do or slowly getting back to normal hitting the road on a Saturday morning, from kid’s sport, a coffee run or waiting in line for a COVID test, let us be here for your ears and hopefully take your mind off things for an hour or two…”
Live & Unrestricted will be heard every Saturday morning from 10am AEST on Nova 96.9, Nova 100, Nova 919, Nova 93.7 and Nova 106.9 from 7 August.
Listeners can also stream the show live by downloading the Nova Player app and can check out the podcast after the show.
