Controversial radio presenter Alan Jones is set to join Coast FM963.
Patron of the Coast’s longest running community radio station John Singleton invited Jones to join the team.
Jones will conduct a regular session for no fee to “provide a national voice for the residents of the Central Coast”.
“I often get inundated with questions out in the community, some of which I don’t know the answers to, but I thought you would,” Singleton said in his invitation.
“If it helps the community, if it answers questions, I’m more than happy to help; the answer is yes,” Jones replied.
“I was just looking the other day at one statistic.
“An analysis of every NSW school’s 2021 student-to-teacher ratios revealed the Central Coast to be the state’s least staffed – bottom of the list.
“I think parents and the wider community deserve better.”
The new Ask Alan segment will be broadcast daily on CoastFM963 at 7.15am with a repeat at 4.15pm for drive time commuters.
Listeners can email their questions to Alan at ask@coastfm.org.au.

Grate now we know which one to avoid.
well past time this old white man and his conservative right wing views retired. I certainly don’t want to listen to his rubbish opinions.
Due to CoastFM’s decision to have this person on its airwaves, I am now changing stations. I don’t believe he should be given airtime. I have enjoyed listening to CoastFM up until this time, but this decision to have him on, just churns my stomach.
He is not on all day, have you thought about that, or does your hatred of everything different to your ideology blinds you??
Great news! The naysayers were never going to tune in regardless of who was the station!
In what reality is this old dinosaur a good fit for a genuine community radio station like Coast FM?
I will be tuning out, permanently. Goodbye.
Alan, it is FANTASTIC to finally hear you on the radio… I love the ‘white, stale, biological man’ who always teaches me something new!!! I will be tuning in!!! please advertise this adventure more!
