The idea for the segment came about when the team casually debated how easy—or tough—it would be for someone to host Jacaranda FM’s iconic breakfast show. 

Martin Bester, who has been a beloved presence on Jacaranda FM for years, decided to take this light-hearted discussion and turn it into a real-life challenge.

"We were chatting on-air about the work that goes into making this show so engaging every morning," says Martin Bester. 

"I suggested we let our listeners give it a go. It sounded fun and challenging, and it fits perfectly with our 'How Hard Can It Be?' segment. So, we decided to make it happen."

During Tuesday’s broadcast, listeners will have the chance to take over various roles, including presenting traffic updates, delivering sports news, and even sitting in Martin Bester's chair as the show's host. 

It's an opportunity for fans to experience first-hand the intricacies of keeping South Africa entertained and informed during the morning rush.

Martin is excited about what the challenge could bring and says it promises to be entertaining radio. 

"I can't wait to see how people react when they’re actually behind the mic! This isn't just about having fun—it's about giving our audience a better understanding of what we do every day and letting them feel the rush we experience live on-air. I hope it brings a deeper appreciation for what it takes to deliver great radio and maybe even inspires a few future broadcasters!"
