VEGA Breakfast vs Triple M Breakfast

VEGA vs Triple M

Both the radio stations of VEGA 91.5 and 105.1 Triple M bring a variety of content to their shows. These shows mix a constant variets of comedy, music, news, and, being breakfast shows, traffic updates. One of the most obvious differences, is that during their shows, VEGA plays music from all kinds of Genres, whereas Triple M focus more on the rock music.

Aside from musical differences, the two breakfast shows are very similar. Both are hosted by comedians which gives them a whole different reason to listened to, Dicko, Dave and Chrissie on VEGA are very "in your face" comedians and add a little extra spice to the morning breakfast show. As do Pete and Myf of Triple M. Aside from musical differences, there is only one standout factor that sets the two breakfast shows apart, and that is listener involvement. Triple M's Pete and Myf hold competitions that run over a week or so and urge listeners to call in and get involved. VEGA also ask their listeners to call in, but ask more of their opinions rather than offering giveaways or competitions. Pete and Myf's most recent competition, Dearly Deported, was one of the central features of the show and would have almost certainly boosted listener numbers.

Overall, the two shows are very similar, both offer the same amount amount of laughs with the same amount of information, the only thing that would sway listeners would be the genre of music that they prefer to listen to. I prefer rock, so i would listen to Triple M with Pete and Myf, but if you are more into hip hop and pop, listen to VEGA breakfast with Dicko, Dave and Chrissie.
