McDougall has a long-standing relationship with ABC, having joined triple j in 2005 to host the Breakfast show with Jay Whalley, and later Myf Warhurst. He left radio in 2015, though evidently not for too long.
This move comes at a good time for both the station and McDougall, with ABC Wollongong adding mobile and online streaming by March.
Until then, make sure you stay locked to this end of the dial.
Here’s ‘Cunt Act’.
