Hack is the title of a current affairs radio program on Australian national radio broadcaster Triple J. The program explores current affairs from the point of view of Triple J's target market (the 15-35 age range) and as a result is more left-wing and less conservative than other programs.

The show began at the start of 2004 after a shake up of the station's programming. The previous current affairs program, The Morning Show from 9 a.m. to midday, was axed and the half-hour Hack was its replacement, from 5.30 p.m. to 6 p.m.

It was hosted by Steve Cannane up until mid-2006. At this point, Cannane left Triple J radio to become the current affairs reporter for their jtv program. Kate O'Toole was Cannane's replacement as host of the radio program.[1]

One of Cannane's stories on Hack, "Petrol Sniffing, Pill Testing and the Cost of War", earned him a Walkley Award. He won the Walkley Award for Broadcast Interviewing in 2006.[2]

The current Executive Producer is James West.
