Hot Tomato is a radio station (102.9 FM) in Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia.
The current breakfast line-up consists of Luke Bradnam (twin brother of Ash Bradnam at Nova 106.9), Rob McCasker, and Renae King. Nova announcer Emily-Jade O'Keefe was among the founding breakfast crew when the station first launched. Another notable personality is former Australian Idol constant Stu Campbell, who formerly hosted the night show but now does weekends.
Hot Tomato was the first radio station in Queensland to use the "no-more-than-two-ads-in-a-row" style, getting around the Nova trademark by calling it "only ever two ads in a row." Hot Tomato also prides itself on on-the-hour news updates and has a dedicated journalist team.
