Home and Hosed is the flagship Australian music radio show airing on national youth broadcaster Triple J. It is currently hosted by Ash McGregor. The program was launched as The Local in 2003, replacing Richard Kingsmill's Australian Music Show, which aired from 1991.
The two hour evening time slot showcases the latest local music– giving significant air time to unsigned musicians– as well as interviews and touring information.
