What’s new for 2DayFM in 2027?
Australian cricketing icon pads up for 2DayFM Breakfast
Thursday, 22 October 2026
Ashes hero. World Cup-winning captain. Australian cricketing legend.
Now, Michael Clarke will join Nath Roye and Emma Chow on 2DayFM Breakfast from Monday, 11 January 2027, bringing a familiar voice, strong opinions, plenty of humour, and a healthy dose of competitive edge to Sydney mornings.
Michael Clarke’s achievements on the field made him a household name. Off it, he has built a successful broadcasting career across radio, television, and international cricket commentary.
Clarke’s addition builds on the momentum Nath and Emma established across 2026, creating a new three-person Breakfast show with three distinct personalities and perspectives on the moments that matter to Sydney.
Since joining forces in 2024, Nath and Emma have steadily built their audience, increasing Breakfast share across four consecutive GfK surveys to 4.9% in Survey 6, 2026, and growing by two share points since the end of 2025.*
An experienced broadcaster in his own right, Clarke brings years of radio, cricketing commentary, and podcasting experience to the show. Now on 2DayFM Breakfast with Nath, Emma & Michael Clarke, listeners will hear Michael beyond cricket.
As a broadcaster, Sydneysider, and proud dad, Michael will bring his strong point of view to the stories and conversations shaping Sydney.
Raised in Liverpool in Sydney’s southwest, Clarke brings a genuine passion and lifelong connection to the city.
Together, Nath, Emma and Michael will bring an exciting new dynamic to 2DayFM Breakfast, as the station continues to invest in the show and its Sydney audience.
On joining 2DayFM Breakfast, Michael Clarke said: “I’m extremely excited to join 2Day. I grew up in the Western Suburbs listening to the station, so to now have the opportunity to be a part of a station I’ve always loved is special.
“I’ve been incredibly lucky where my career has taken me, now FM Breakfast radio is a completely new challenge and one I’m excited to get stuck into! Nath and Emma are absolute superstars, I have enormous respect for what they’ve built, and to be a part of this team is a dream come true. I can’t wait to get in the studio with Nath and Emma and make the best show we can for Sydney.”
Amanda Lee, Seven Media Group’s Head of Hit Network Metro Content, said: “Nath and Emma have built real momentum across 2026, and we’re focused on accelerating their growth as we continue to invest in 2DayFM and our Sydney audience.
“We have been really intentional about adding Michael into this partnership. Michael is an experienced broadcaster, one of Australia’s most recognisable sporting figures, and someone with a clear point of difference in the market.
“The chemistry between Nath, Emma, and Michael was immediately obvious – and they sound fun! They each bring distinct personalities, experiences, and opinions, and we believe this will make for a compelling Breakfast show for Sydney.”
Emma Chow said: “Michael Clarke? Are you kidding!? I can’t wait for this threesome to kick off in 2027! We love his wit, his cheek, and his unpredictability. A champion athlete, a loving dad, and not afraid to speak his mind. We already have a group chat going with plenty of LOLs that we can’t wait to bring to our listeners. Importantly, now Nath has someone who genuinely wants to hear his golf stories.”
Nath Roye said: “Welcome to the family, Clarkey! Your 2DayFM baggy green awaits. We are so stoked to have a proud dad, Sydney boy through and through, and a former Australian captain joining our little crew. A man that’s as talented as he is relatable and driven, we’re very lucky. I also know you love a long lunch and an afternoon tea break… a man after my heart! Let’s hit em for 6!”
Michael Clarke will officially join 2DayFM Breakfast with Nath, Emma & Michael Clarke from Monday, 11 January 2027, although listeners won’t have to wait long to hear him with Michael making regular appearances on the show for the remainder of 2026.
