Creator Influence

Ryan, Michael, and Kate Fitzgerald, Wipfli, and Ritchie

Fitzy & Wippa with Kate Ritchie operates as a central fixture of the Australian media landscape, bridging the gap between traditional FM broadcasting and digital entertainment. The trio, consisting of former AFL player Ryan Fitzgerald, radio veteran Michael Wipfli, and iconic actress Kate Ritchie, delivers a high-energy mix of celebrity interaction and regional humor. Their tenure at Nova 96.9 is defined by high-production segments such as the Rap Up of the Week, which pits international stars against the hosts in rhythmic battles, and the competitive Headline Off series. A recent win for the team involved a record-setting activation where they secured the Guinness World Record for the longest Hot Wheels track, showcasing their ability to execute large-scale community stunts. From interviewing global pop icons like Katy Perry to orchestrating elaborate celebrity stitch-ups, the group maintains a consistent presence in Sydney's cultural discourse through the Nova Player app and multi-platform video content.
