Good Hope FM Line-up Changes

Cape Town – Thursday 28 March 2019 - Good Hope FM has announced their official line up for 2019, featuring more female-hosted shows plus an all new show in the popular afternoon drive slot. The new line-up launches on air on Monday, 1 April 2019 and Good Hope FM is pleased to confirm that Khanya Siyengo, better known as Kyeezi, The Tall Wonder, will move from his current show to host the coveted 15h00 – 18h00 timeslot with his new show called ‘The Great Drive with Kyeezi’. Taking over the airwaves from 18h00 – 21h00 with her brand new show ‘It’s about time’ on Monday through to Thursday is long-term Good Hope FM personality, Geri Saunders while on Friday’s ‘Doctor’s in the House with Dr Jules’ will continue as always.

“Hard work!” exclaimed Kyeezi when responding to a question relating to how he landed the most desirable timeslot on weekday radio, “My first attempt to get into radio was when I entered the Good Hope FM Campus DJ search, sadly I didn’t win but I persevered and have worked myself up from the ‘graveyard slot’ to this great achievement. I won’t disappoint the listeners, I have so many new ideas that I’ll be bringing to the show”. Kyeezi previously hosted the popular ‘Win a Home’ TV series on SABC 3 and was a well-loved participant on the ‘Presenter Search’ competition in 2015.

“Both Kyeezi and Geri are currently part of the on-air team at the station and have already more than proved themselves to be ideal candidates for their new shows”, says Brendan Ficks, Good Hope FM Station Manager. As ’s original radio station, Good Hope FM is accustomed to constantly reinventing itself in order to stay ahead of the curve when it comes to on-air content and listener trends, Ficks continues: “Our 2019 line-up is packed with talent and diversity, offering our listeners dynamic shows, hosted by presenters who are at the top of their game.”

Meanwhile the weekend line up will see two new presenters and shows added to the mix with Yonda Bass on a Sunday 9h00 to 12h00 and Tamara Snow taking the late night Sunday slot from 22h00 to 01h00.
