The new gig marks another step in Christian's thriving career as a media personality, following in the footsteps of his father Richard who is a veteran entertainment reporter and Nine Network presenter.
Earlier this year, Richard lashed out at critics who branded his son a 'nepo baby' after the budding actor topped the list of Australia's most privileged offspring.
The term 'nepo baby' refers to a person who benefits from their family connections or privileged background.
Speaking to Daily Mail Australia, Richard said the label irritated him because his son shouldn't be criticised for having parents who are merely trying to support their child.
'I get a little irritated because you look at any law firm or panel beaters and they all embrace their families and give their kids jobs and help them with their lives,' he vented.
Meanwhile, Christian, who recently moved to the US to pursue an acting career, laughed off the label and said his famous family name has made no difference to his success overseas.

'I feel very grateful to be my dad's son and if that's what being a nepo baby is, then whatever,' he told Daily Mail Australia.
'And I can tell you this much though. The Wilkins name unfortunately doesn't carry the same weight in Los Angeles, so I don't necessarily feel like a nepo baby over there.'
The father-son duo have been working together on their new podcast called The Apple and The Tree.
Christian had the idea to collaborate with his father, hoping to blend their professional skills and family bond.
