The Spin is Tim's weekly radio program on JOY 94.9 (or you can log in to joy.og.au if you don't live in Melbourne). Tim hosts the program with support from a group of media mates he met reading news on radio stations FOX, GOLD and MMM in the 90's. Channel 9's Ben McCormack from A Current Affair is the program's Sydney reporter. Tim's special radio series 'Out & About' was the recipient of the CBAA's Best Spoken Word Program in Australia at the 2008 CBAA Awards held in Alice Springs.
The Spin is an irreverent look at the media... the news behind the news. It's an hour of analysis, opinion, regular segments and interviews. Join in, we're always wanting to hear what you think about various issues. And we've had some fantastic guests popping in over the years. Below, one of favourites, John Blackman, Australia's best known radio guru and the 'voice' from Hey Hey it's Saturday. He is pictured with former Spin co-host Patrick Bonello.
Tim produced and anchored an exclusive live broadcast on JOY and 2SER for the 2008 Sydney Mardi Gras. His co-hosts were Beau Vigushin, Ben McCormack (Channel 9) and Lauren Christopher. Tim still has to wear the surgical appliance that holds his brains in.
