HONEY MONSTER BECOMES FUN KIDS RADIO DJ

Fun Kids, the Sony award winning station announces that its latest recruit to join the radio station is none other than Honey Monster. As a roving reporter for the kids focused station, the yellow furry one will be taking to the air waves from 31st October with his very own daily radio slot.

Honey Monster will be on air for 12 weeks and will include interviews with some of his celebrity friends and exciting features such as ‘Monster films’ where Honey Monster reviews the latest film releases and ‘Out and about’ with top tips on the best places to go in the UK. In order to prepare for his new job, Honey Monster has been shadowing Fun Kids Radio’s breakfast presenter James Beckingham to learn everything there is to know about life as a reporter.

On working with Honey Monster, James of Fun Kids Radio said ‘I’m really excited about Honey Monster going live on air, we’ve been working on some really fun and unique features which I’m sure our listeners will just love. Honey Monster is the perfect fit for Fun Kids Radio as he appeals directly to our target market and can up the fun factor on the station even further’.

This will be the first time Honey Monster has featured in a regular slot on the radio, but he is no stranger to the music business after collaborating with Samanda on the single ‘Honey Love’ released last year.

Speaking about the latest development in his career, Honey Monster commented: ‘I can’t wait to work on the radio, Chris Moyles had better watch out, I’m going to be radio’s biggest DJ in more ways than one’.
