Nova radio host Michael ‘Wippa’ Wipfli is busted sleeping on the job: ‘Nothing like an ad break snooze’
Veteran radio host Michael ‘Wippa’ Wipfli is used to early morning starts, as co-host of Nova’s popular breakfast program Fitzy & Wippa with Kate Ritchie.
But on Tuesday, he was busted sleeping on the job by his colleagues.
The FitzyWippaKate Instagram page shared hilarious footage of Wippa taking a quick nap during a commercial break.
Wippa looks dead to the world as he leans back on his seat in the Nova Sydney studio and rests his feet on a desk.
‘Nothing like an ad break snooze, Wippa,’ they wrote next to the footage.

Wippa is happily married to his wife of nine years, Lisa, but in February, he revealed his ex and ‘first true love’ bizarrely reached out to his family, 15 years after their split.
Speaking on his radio show, the 42-year-old explained that his former partner Laura got in touch with his father to ask for his ‘famous’ tomato spaghetti recipe.
‘I went out with a girl for about three years. She was my first true love. Laura was her name. We were young, we were silly. Hearts full of love,’ he explained.
Wippa went on to say he and Lisa actually rented a house near his exes’ rental home recently, but they didn’t talk or cross paths as they are focusing on their own respective families.
But he said his father John told him that Laura had reached out to him for his tomato spaghetti recipe.

‘Anybody that eats it, who comes around for dinner and says, “Yeah, can we have John’s tomato spaghetti?”‘ he said.
Wippa said he wasn’t sure why his ex, who has since remarried, went straight to his father and not to him.
He proposed to wife Lisa during a romantic trip to Switzerland in September 2012, presenting her with a huge emerald-cut diamond ring.
The Wipflis married in September 2013 in front of 150 guests on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula.
They share three children, sons Theodore, seven, and Jack, five, and one-year-old daughter Francesca Vera Alice.
