Career
Dyson began his radio career on Warrnambool community station 3WAY FM with Tom Ballard.[4] Dyson and Ballard began presenting mid-dawn shifts for Australian youth radio station, Triple J in 2007 after program director, Chris Scaddan, saw Ballard perform stand-up comedy at Raw Comedy. They made their transition to weekend radio in late 2008, taking over from Sam Simmons.
On 23 November 2009, Triple J announced that Ballard and Dyson would take over as hosts of the breakfast show in 2010, replacing Robbie Buck, Marieke Hardy and Lindsay McDougall.[5] Matt Okine joined Dyson as co-host in January 2014 when Ballard left Triple J.
