Meshel, Ash & Kip with Luttsy is an Australian breakfast show on Nova 106.9 in Brisbane, Queensland. It is hosted by comedian Meshel Laurie, TV and Sports personalities Ashley Bradnam and David Lutteral, and Chris ‘Kip’ Wightman. A daily podcast featuring the best bits from the mornings show is available from the Nova 106.9 website and iTunes.

Meshel, Ash & Kip with Luttsy runs from 6 - 9am weekdays. Every day between 5 and 6 am shows the best of the previous mornings show. The show has a unique format to other Brisbane radio stations, with many daily discussion topics, hottest new music and special guests. The show has been Nova’s flagship and breakfast program since the station’s opening in 2005. The show has no ‘regular’ games or segments, but all it’s games are promotional changing every week, with a brand new game every week.

They were the first on air change on Nova since it's opening in April 2005, originally the came into the Nova 19s timeslot, because Jabba and Justine left the timeslot because of Jabba moving to host the Nova 19s in Sydney. The next month Dan & Ken moved into the drivetime slot because of Jamie Row becoming the 3rd Nova Brisbane DJ to head to Sydney. Dan and Ken have a very similar format to the Breakfast show mainly with listeners calling in on various topics, special guests and unlike the brekky show many prank calls.

Originally the Nova 19s were hosted by Jason Davis (Jabba) and [[Justine McKell. They held the timeslot for one and a half years, but with the departure of Fridgy & Matt Baseley hosting the Sydney Nova 19s and Jabba is now the host of their show. Dan & Ken were the first on-air change to the Nova 106.9 lineup in almost 2 years on the market, but the departure of Jamie Row (drive presenter) to the afternoon shift (now mornings 9-12), meant that Dan & Ken moved to Drive after only a month at the station. Michelle Anderson (former drive presenter of Nova 100 and Kent Small (former DJ on Star 104.5 Gosford) are the current hosts of the Nova 19s, and fill-in for the Breakfast and Drive Shifts whenever needed. Bossy (late nights presenter) fills in for Michelle & Smallzy Mon-Thu and Ryno (Sandman) fills in for Bossy on Friday.

[edit] Segments

Trauma Tuesday: Every Tuesday, no matter what timeslot, Michelle & Smallzy get listeners to call on a topic and share their traumatic stories.

Questions you want Answered: Played very scarcley now, but listeners call in on any question they want answered, and Michelle & Smallzy wikipedia it, or find out for the next show.

SNAP! Phone Polls Another rare segment, where they ask a (normally stupid) question, listeners call in and vote on the options.

Michelle's Gossip As the title suggests!
