Prior to the rebranding to The Hits the local breakfast show was hosted by AJ Funnell, Chloe Emirali and Andy Ellis. With the changeover to The Hits, AJ Funnell was moved to present a local show between 9am and 12pm and Dave Fitzgerald presented a network show from Christchurch but at the same time separate voice breaks are recorded for local Christchurch and Auckland audiences. A local breakfast was reinstated in 2017 presented by Dave Fitzgeral and Brodie Kemp, this show was networked to Ashburton and Timaru. The local breakfast was axed in March 2020
