Beginning 6 July 2026, there are major changes to our schedule, with new programs from the Baw Baw Sustainability Network, and about arts and music in Gippsland.  Download a PDF copy of the new schedule to keep or print. 

Some key changes:

  • West Gippland Week presents two distinct editions: Thursdays 3:00pm-6:00pm and Saturdays 8:00am – 10:00am.  Local issues, politics, news, arts and health. Paul Strickland keeps you in touch.
  • Monday afternoons have a sustainability and science focus, as we introduce The Ripple Effect produced by the Baw Baw Sustainability Network, followed by Earth Matters and Lost in Science from sister-station 3CR.
  • Our local live music showcase Gippsland Live will now be heard first on Friday afternoon at 2:00pm, repeated Sunday afternoon at 5:00pm.  With the 3BBR-FM Concert Hall already bringing you many exclusive 3BBR live recordings, Sunday afternoons become a feast of genuine music making to appreciative audiences.
  • Gippsland Arts every Wednesday at 5:30pm is a new half-hour feature drawing on many sources to bring you music, news and conversations from creative people across Gippsland.
  • Marni’s Sounds of the Underground has moved to 6:00-8:00pm Wednesday nights, bringing you two hours of little heard music.  Featuring interviews and live performances, bringing the underground music scene to Gippsland.
  • Jessielea’s Push The Envelope expands back to 2 hours from 8:00pm Friday, so Friday night will now focus on indie, Australian and hardcore music for a younger audience.
  • For lovers of jazz and fusion Richard Rejmer’s Smooth & Cool, Rare & Spicy now has a replay on Saturday afternoon 2:00pm – 4:00pm.
  • Tom’s delightfully quirky Serendipity moves to 12 noon Wednesday.
  • Time for Terri moves to 12 noon Thursday, still bringing you great pop tunes from the 70s and 80s.
  • Saturday morning includes an hour on books and writing from 7:00am with Final Draft and the award-winning Narratives Library where writers read and discuss their own work.
  • If you’re an early riser on weekdays, you’ll soon discover a range of locally-made and Community Radio Network programs after the 6:00am News, with folk, easy-listening, jazz, blues/roots, and music from the screen.
