Former AFL footballer Ben Cousins has signed an exclusive deal with a Perth breakfast radio program, expanding his media presence in his home state of Western Australia. Cousins will make regular appearances on the Pete and Kymba Breakfast show on Mix94.5.

The move, announced by Southern Cross Austereo adds to his media roles as a sports presenter for 7News and his forthcoming appearance on the hit TV show Dancing With the Stars.

Cousins will join hosts Pete Curulli and Kymba Cahill every Wednesday as a part of the “Bensday Wednesday” segment.
