The current morning radio show is known as The Morning Rumble, the member of which are currently Roger Farrelly (Rog), Leah Panapa, Bryce Casey and Andrew Mulligan. The show is aired weekday mornings between 5:30am and 9am. Rog is the longest-serving member of The Rumble, having been a co-host on the show since its inception alongside Nick Trott. Trott left the show in 2006, when he moved back to his home town of Hamilton in Waikato to work on the morning show on More FM. Leah Panapa also began working on the show in its early years, reading the news. Up until recently, Paul Ego was part of the show, and initially worked as the show's producer, and in addition to his duties on The Morning Rumble is an accomplished comedian, who fronts comedy TV show 7 Days. Paul left in March 2011, replaced by host of Prime TV's The Crowd Goes Wild, Andrew Mulligan. Bryce has attempted to break two world records during his tenure on the show, his most notable attempt being to break the record for the longest time ten-pin bowling continuously. He fell short by only a few hours.

Tracey Donaldson takes over on-air from 9:00am – 1:00pm, fronting the 'Workday' show which is mainly request-based. Tracey performs the majority of the music interviews the show manages to procure, and these are usually played during her show. Jason Mac then takes over from 1:00pm to 4:00pm to continue the no-repeat workday.

Robert (TV1 and TV2 voiceover artist) and Jono (TV3 show host) are then on from 4:00pm – 7:00pm for The Rock's 'Drive' show with help from newsreader Paige Wright and sportsreader Riccardo Ball who joined the team in early 2011. Duncan Heyde and Mike Garvey hosts Rock Nights from 7:00pm – 12:00am. From 10pm - 12am Dunc and Mike hands the playlist over to the listeners and nothing but requests air for The Takeover.

There is then a 12am - 5:30am dawn show which is sometimes hosted by a slew of Rock staff.

Saturday nights are an ad and announcer free all request party show from 8pm til 1am.

Famous quotes containing the word rock:

    The new sound-sphere is global. It ripples at great speed across languages, ideologies, frontiers and races.... The economics of this musical esperanto is staggering. Rock and pop breed concentric worlds of fashion, setting and life-style. Popular music has brought with it sociologies of private and public manner, of group solidarity. The politics of Eden come loud.
    George Steiner (b. 1929)
