Merrick Watts

Merrick Watts is a comedian, television and radio presenter best known for his time as part of the comedy duo Merrick & Rosso.

Merrick started his career as a solo stand-up before teaming up with Tim “Rosso” Ross after watching him perform in his comedy band, Black Rose.  After deciding to work as a duo, Merrick & Rosso quickly made a name for themselves with their unique brand of “pub rock comedy.”

After a bunch of sell-out comedy shows they were offered the breakfast gig on Triple J and eventually moved to hosting breakfast for the brand new radio station, NOVA Sydney.  After 10 years with NOVA, Merrick was signed to Triple M where he hosted the national drive show, Merrick & The Highway Patrol with me and Jules Schiller.

After that show wrapped up Merrick moved to hosting breakfast on Hit1041 and then came back to drive on Triple M with his show, Merrickville.

In this episode, Merrick Watts talks about his thoughts on the radio industry, how he’s changed over the years, how he met Rosso and why he thinks people should be getting into pre-colonial agriculture (yes, you read that right).
