Merrick and Rosso Radio Show

Merrick Watts first came to Australia’s attention as one half of Merrick and Rosso, as part of the Triple J Drive show with Tim Ross. In 2000 they were the first
voices on the NOVA network, launching a new radio brand and coming first in Australia’s toughest radio market – Sydney Breakfast.
Merrick and Rosso built a cult fan base with sold out live shows across Australia and TV series’ on Ten, Nine and the Comedy Channel.

Over the last few years Merrick has branched out from the double act, demonstrating his versatility as both an actor and comedian. Most notably,
Merrick showed his acting chops with roles in Underbelly – The Tale of Two Cities, and Working Dog’s Logie Award winning comedy/drama satire, The
Hollowmen on ABC TV.

After more than 10 years broadcasting his award winning breakfast radio show on Nova 969, Merrick made the switch to Drive with Triple M hosting
the very successful Merrick Watts and the Highway Patrol, which broadcast nationally in 2012 and 2013.

2015 saw Merrick return to his beloved Triple M after a year hosting Sydney Breakfast for 2day FM, with a national Drive radio show; Merrick

and loyal listeners, this is a drive show that reflects the best of Australia. There are 23 million people in this country and Merrick wants to hear every
single one of their stories.
