JOY Breakfast on JOY 94.9
Wake up with JOY Breakfast – the feel-good way to start your day. Join Mietta, Jason & Dr Cat as they unpack the stories everyone’s talking about (and a few you didn’t know you needed), from pop culture moments and internet buzz to politics, health and queer life.
Each episode blends big headlines with sharp opinions, expert insights from Dr Cat, and plenty of laughs along the way.
New episodes every Tuesday 7-9am
This week’s topics: Whatcha watching? Jason has binged Stranger Things Season and is deep in an Alien phase. We celebrate XG’s rapper Cocona coming out as transmasculine non-binary, proudly showing top surgery scars. Cat breaks down Australia’s move to ban social media for under-16s. We cheer for Nguyen Huong Giang, the first out trans Miss Vietnam at Miss Universe 2025, and talk about the pageant finally opening its doors to married women, mums and trans women. We also mark the anniversary of marriage equality and the 2017 YES postal survey. Music-wise, it’s Spilt Milk 2025 (Sombr, Dominic Fike, Doechii) and time for Spotify Wrapped. Taylor Swift has been dethroned by Bad Bunny as Spotify’s top global artist (queer ally, we see you), we share our deeply on-brand stats and ask for your top artist, global fan rating and listening age. Plus: Ozempic for cats that just can’t stop eating, the Big Brother grand final, Katy Perry going Instagram official with former Canadian PM Justin Trudeau, and we crown our Crushes of the Week for the first time.
