Ali's Extreme Juggle

- 

Singing down the phone, Ali Pugh is doing her best rendition of The Weeknd’s hit single “I Feel it Coming”.

“I love that song,” she says, before switching into “Daydream” by Mariah Carey.

“But I love the older stuff like that too. You know, the songs from your heyday, when you went to the clubs.” With that, the broadcaster breaks into her trademark giggles and for a few seconds, all you can hear is her peals of laughter.

These days, hitting up clubs does seem rather laughable to the mum-of-one, TVNZ reporter and new co-host of The Hits Christchurch’s breakfast show. Rather than the dance floor, now it’s on radio where she’s getting her eclectic hit of music and it’s a role the 30-year-old is loving.

However, a slightly weary Ali admits it’s difficult fitting in her time on the airwaves, her full-time TVNZ job and looking after Thea, who’s now 18 months old. “It’s flat tack,” she tells.
