5FM ANNOUNCES MINOR CHANGES

It’s that time of the year again at 5FM; April brings with it a few tweaks to the weekday line-up and bigger changes to the weekend. 5FM will be shaking things up just a little with regards to the presenters and producers. There are also some great new programming changes and innovative radio additions.

 

We’re most excited about our programming additions. Last year we set a trend by kicking off breakfast at 5am and this year we’re trying something new again.  We’re adding on a new talk element similar to the popular Ted Talks which morning presenter Nick Hamman will play host to. The feature, 5Talks, forms part of 5FM’s CSi Youngblood5 and will see Nick chatting to motivational South Africans and young achievers in a monthly talk show setting that will translate on air on the Rob Forbes and Fix show on the third Friday between 15:00-16:00. 

 

The Roger Goode Show has altered the Ulimix a little and will refer to their 18:00-19:00 segment as The Happy Hour which begins with The Goode Mix until 18:20 and continue with the popular Ultimix until 19:00. Roger promises the mix will be extraordinary, much like himself, and include his mixing mastery of old school hits and the latest releases. 

 

With regards to line-up changes, the weekday line-up remains relatively unaffected where timeslots are concerned. DJ Fresh and his breakfast team remain in their slot between 05:00 and 08:00. Fresh@5 will however, bid farewell to content producer Catherine Grenfell, who will be moving to produce DJ Warras’ show, The 5th Element from 19:00-22:00. 

 

On her departure from Fresh’s show, Catherine says she leaves with so many beautiful memories. “Wow, after almost 9 years, I am leaving this beautiful family of the Fresh show. There are so many memories, so many good times, laughs, cries but always a sense of family, loyalty and love. Change is always good and I am excited about this new path that I move onto with Warras  and Tumi.”

 

Nick Hamman who is on between 08:00-10:00 will release smart-as-a-whip newsreader and contributor Kim Schulze, who will be moving to take over news on The Roger Goode Show, afternoon drive time from 16:00-19:00. Newsreader, Vic Naidoo has been given an opportunity to host his own show; early Friday mornings from 01:00-05:00 and Saturdays and Sundays, 01:00-04:00.

 

Your weekends begin on Friday nights and they’re about to get hotter and louder with Milkshake’s, The Shakedown moving to an earlier slot from 19:00-22:00. The party continues on Saturdays with Milkshake between 22:00-01:00 . 

Mixi, will continue the Friday party into the weekend from 22:00-01:00. Mixi, who has taken over the Ultimix Weekend Edition will also be on air on Saturdays, 19:00-22:00and on Sundays, 17:00 – 19:00.

 

5FM’s Top 40 chart show on Saturdays between 10:00-14:00 will be hosted by Nick Hamman, who will be taking over from Sureshnie Rider. 

 

Nicole da Silva takes over Saturdays and Sundays 14:00-17:00, a spot that has been held down by KB for the last few years. On Saturdays, Nicole will be followed by Tumi Voster, who moves from Sundays 17:00-19:00 to Saturdays 17:00-19:00 as part of The Saturday Situation. - release by 5FM

Joost tape is out for all to see...

Image
THE Joost van der Westhuizen sex tape saga descended into a tabloid frenzy last month as Heat magazine screened a grainy video purporting to show the former Springbok captain in compromising positions.  The 29-minute tape, which was shown to journalists, showed a man who bore some resemblance to Van der Westhuizen frolicking with what heat magazine described as a “vindictive young lady” wearing two G-strings “in the stripper tradition”.  It claimed that the video proved conclusively that Van der Westhuizen had cheated on his wife, singer Amore Vittone. But the magazine did not identify the woman and provided little corroborating evidence in the accompanying story. Twelve print, radio and television journalists watched the man, whom Van der Westhuizen strongly denies is him, arousing himself, running his hands over the woman’s body, and using a sex toy. Now HEAT has place the video up on their site.  Click HERE to see all this drama.
