Ken and Nicky loved getting out in the community and broadcasting live from schools around Brisbane with Brissy Brekky Club. We team up with Scripture Union to highlight the incredible work of chaplains.
Be prepared for a barrel full of laughs, games like ‘Riddle Me This’ and ‘The Impossible Question’ and finding ‘The Scoop’ or shedding a few tears through our SOS calls!
Ken Green is a larger-than-life kind of guy with a big laugh to boot (which you’ve probably heard). Ken began his radio career in Auckland in true Ken style, by simply putting his hand up at a local Christian community radio station and ended up hosting the breakfast show. Since then, his career has spanned nearly three decades and two countries working in both the commercial radio sector for the likes of Southern Cross Austereo, and extensively in the community sector both regionally and in capital cities such as Melbourne, where he was the breakfast host for LightFM – the Christian Community station.
In 2014, 96five convinced him to move his family, wife Lynley and son Kobe to Brisbane where he commenced the Drive Show ‘Burns & Green’. If you’re talking to Ken about what he enjoys most about working at 96five he says time and time again that it is being part of the community that cares and being able to tell people listening that God loves them and that they are significant!
Growing up in Brisbane, Nicky always wanted to work in radio and got her start at 96five as an intern and producer before moving into the role of breakfast host! Nicky has a real heart for the city of Brisbane and right from the beginning of her radio career, held onto her goal of working at 96five as she had caught hold of the vision to give people in Brisbane the message of Hope in Christ. Nicky’s favourite aspect about working at 96five is that while other radio stations tear people down – we get to build people up and recognise that life is difficult but life can be done together, and this helps us grow into stronger and better people.
Nicky, despite looking 20, has in fact been married for 20 years to Terry – and their two daughters Sharrai & Aleeyah round out their gorgeous family to four! She is also a proud south-sider – which we love her for!
