Get ready for a magical Saturday morning with Rich Clarke!
A New Era for Magic Radio
The talented Rich Clarke is here to stay, taking on the role of host for Saturday Breakfast at Magic. But here's where it gets interesting - this isn't just a temporary gig; Rich is joining the team on a permanent basis!
Rich, a seasoned presenter with an impressive resume, has been a familiar voice on stations like Heart, Capital, and Hit40UK. His recent appearances have been a hit, and now he's ready to take on his first weekly show.
This move is part of Magic Radio's exciting weekend refresh, bringing new energy and voices to both Saturday and Sunday.
Waking Up to Rich Clarke
Every Saturday, Rich will be your guide through a musical journey spanning decades, from the 80s to today. He's thrilled to be part of the Magic Radio team and can't wait to wake up the nation!
The refreshed lineup also includes Mel Giedroyc, who will be providing the perfect soundtrack for Saturday nights. Anna Richardson takes over the Sunday Morning Request Show, and Dan Morrissey will keep the weekend vibes going with his new program. Jo Russell and Paul Hayes complete the weekend crew, with their own unique shows.
Content Director Paul Sylvester is delighted to welcome Rich and Anna to the Magic Radio family, noting their seamless integration into the team. With Mel's new show and the existing crew, Magic Radio's weekends are set to be a blast!
