101.9 The Fox’s Brekky in the Burbs is a staple to the Fifi, Fev & Nick breakfast show, where they hit the road and visit various suburbs across Melbourne.
Mediaweek spoke to Fifi Box about Brekky in the Burbs back in May, when Brekky in the Burbs was initially expanded out from being a four-show run into a permanent show staple.
“We did North, South, East, and West,” said Box. “It’s interesting because we all come from those areas. I’m an Eastern suburbs girl, I grew up out in Wonga Park, Croydon, and Ringwood. Nick (Cody) is from the West, he grew up in Hoppers Crossing and Werribee. Fev (Brendan Fevola) is from down the south, he grew up in Narre Warren. So that was really us going back to the areas that we know.
“What we didn’t anticipate was everybody wanting us to go to their suburbs. We’re getting requests, we’ve got a long list and I think we’ll probably start taking votes. Where do you want us? Because we’re obviously going to continue this!”
Listen to Fifi, Fev & Nick on Melbourne’s 101.9 The Fox from 6-9am weekdays.
