Source-derived summary

Jase & PJ also known as Jase & PJ in the Morning was an Australian breakfast radio show hosted by Jason Hawkins and Polly 'PJ' Harding on KIIS 1011 in Melbourne. The show was syndicated in the night-time slot on the KIIS Network following The Kyle and Jackie O Show. A daily podcast of the morning's show was also produced. The show ended in July 2021 when PJ relocated back to her home country, New Zealand.

History

In October 2017, Australian Radio Network announced that Matt Tilley and Meshel Laurie will leave the station at the end of the year and will be replaced by Jason Hawkins and Polly 'PJ' Harding from ZM in New Zealand. The show commenced broadcasting on KIIS 101.1 on 8 January 2018.

Jason Hawkins and Polly 'PJ' Harding moved to Melbourne from New Zealand where they have hosted drive on ZM since 2015. PJ was called PJ rather than Polly on air because there was already a presenter called Polly on ZM's breakfast show (Polly Gillespie). Previously, Hawkins has hosted Labby, Stav & Abby on B105 in Brisbane, worked with Kyle and Jackie O at 2DAY FM and hosted the Hot30 Countdown.

During 2019, Jase & PJ hosted a weekend breakfast show on New Zealand's ZM, which was packaged content from their Melbourne breakfast show, having previously hosted a drive show on the network throughout 2018.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “new Zealand radio program” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Apr 28, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q48811636. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1011, 2021, 2017 and 2018.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it
