Meet The Team - Matt
Matt Tilley
Matt Tilley is one of the most talented and successful radio personalities in Melbourne - working with FOX FM for the past 16 years!Matt was discovered by FOX FM when he was doing a 21st birthday speech for a friend. At the time he was studying Law at university, had never been up before 10am and certainly didn't know what breakfast radio was all about. Since then, he has certainly made his mark in radio being part of the longest running Number One FM shows in Melbourne's history. Now he is part of the new Matt & Jo show with the fabulous Adam Richard every morning on FOX FM. In late 2005, Matt's infamous 'Gotcha Calls' were released as a 'Best Of' CD (Cereal Pest). This went to number one on the charts where it remained for several weeks and raised more than $160,000 for the Mercy Hospital redevelopment.
If I won $10 million, I'd... join Tony Mokbel on holidays.
I wish I was... sexier than Jo so I could go at the front of our publicity photos for once.
My body... has undergone some serious changes. I used to be over 30kgs heavier and was banned from wearing cords in libraries.
When I'm driving, I... think no one can see me when I pick my nose. (You know you do too!)
When I was a kid, I always... nicked cigarettes from my Mum's handbag. There was never any bloody money in there!
TV these days is... better without me hosting some half arsed reality show.
Every day, I can't go without... two apples at the start of the show. One to keep the doctor away and the other to annoy the guys with my loud chewing.
The first thing I'd fix with plastic surgery is... my knees. For some reason you can't see them. Barbie has the same issue.
I'd love to meet... Richie Benaud.
I'd hate to meet... Shannon Noll again. Last time he wanted to take me outside into the carpark for something I didn't even say.
I spend too much money on... building orphanages for the poor.
I'm scared of... heights. I once had to call my wife on the phone from our roof to help me get down.
I don't spend enough money on... clothes. Apparently $8 on a pair of shorts is a disgrace, not a bargain.
I want to buy the box set of... my TV shows. Nothing has gone past 3 episodes so I know it will be cheap.
I know nothing about... computers.
I'm an expert at... looking pathetic and vulnerable so other people will help me with my computer problems.
At school, I was the kid who... they wrote that song I don't like Mondays about.
My mother always said... I was adopted.
I always cry when... I see that Workcover TV commercial with Dido playing.
My worst scar is... mental. It's the only way you get to use that word these days without having to say intellectually challenged.
I'm obsessed with... annoying other people.
In twenty years from now, I'll be... boring someone with stories of what I'm doing right now.
The favourite thing in my wardrobe is... The Shelltox moth strip. The smell reminds me of my Grandma's house.
On a night alone at home... I always cook baked beans on toast and drink straight from the bottle in the fridge. Anarchy.
I could never... imagine a day without laughing at work.
Nobody knows that I... stole two cases of Duff beer from the Fox store room and sold them on eBay years later.
I'm mindful of the environment because I... know it sends my wife spare when those fruit flies buzz around our compost bucket in the sink.
When I'm driving, I hate it when... the Maccas chips between my legs start to burn my crotch and I can't move them because I'm talking on the mobile phone, holding a shake and steering with my elbows.
My favourite website is... cyclingnews.com.au
My mobile phone ringtone... is the one it came with. I'm too good at annoying people on my own without the need for help from Nokia.
If I had a time machine, I'd go... back and change my answer about my favourite website.
I always forget... my computer pass word when I come back from holidays. Needless to say I no longer use smutty ones after several awkward moments with our IT department.
If I could have a superpower, it would be... fashion sense. Then I could be the first male super hero not to wear tights.
I always sleep... in the middle of the day for an hour or so. It helps reduce the seven visible signs of aging and stops me being grumpy when its time to bath and feed my kids.
If my house was burning down, I'd... drive the car into it so I could get a new one of those as well. All the photos have red eye anyway.
