Mitch Churi is one of Australia’s most-loved media personalities, and his popularity continues to grow. With a decade of broadcasting under his belt, Churi connects with audiences – from when he hosted his own KIIS FM national nights show, to his TV presenting, MCing & stand-up comedy, as well as podcasting. It was no surprise when Churi took out the top honour as ‘Best Music Presenter’ at the prestigious Australian Commercial Radio and Audio (ACRA) Awards in 2022.
Churi is truly in his element when interviewing the world’s biggest artists, think Dua Lipa, Billie Eilish, Harry Styles, Miley Cyrus and Emily Blunt. Churi leans into the classic ‘late show’ style of Graham Norton or Jimmy Fallon, creating a relaxed and hilarious environment for his guests. He has mastered the art of not taking himself too seriously, all in the name of entertainment – and has completed numerous short courses in comedy, acting, and writing to-boot.
Listeners also fell in love with Mitch when he co-hosted KIIS FM’s THE PICKUP – where he leant into honest conversations, covered the juicy topics, and dissected life conundrums. Mitch also co-hosted iHeart’s much-loved podcast ‘Is It Just Me?’, which recently wrapped after five successful years.
While humour drives most of what Churi does, he is no stranger to vulnerability and openness with his audience. He taps into his love of human connection particularly on his social platforms, where he engages directly with his audience.
In terms of accolades, if an ACRA wasn’t enough – Mitch was also named ‘Australia’s Most Relatable Broadcaster’ by TalentCorp in 2024.
While he might be most known for his voice, he lights up a screen or stage without breaking a sweat.
His TV credits include co-hosting the 2020 ARIA Awards Pre-Show, appearances on Nine’s ‘Beauty & The Geek’ and ‘Love Island Afterparty’ – and he’s never afraid to share his thoughts on Nine’s Today and Today Extra.
Churi flexed his stand-up comedy skills opening for the 2023 Life Uncut Live Show national tour, entertaining tens of thousands across the period.
Mitch is sought after for commercial projects too, and is fast becoming a popular brand partner and dynamo MC for major events.
