Former AMLive host John Perlman has joined Johannesburg radio station KAYA FM and will present his first show ‘Today with John Perlman” between 6pm and 7pm on Monday. His first guest is businessman Tokyo Sexwale who has been mentioned as a possible presidential candidate.
‘I’m very excited about the idea of getting to know a new audience and I’m looking forward to focusing on a particular city,” Perlman told eMedia about his appointment at KAYA FM.
His show will be aired from Monday to Thursday between 6pm and 7pm and will focus on the talking point of the day with two or three guests, similar to the format of the ‘After Eight Debate” he presented on SAFM.
Perlman resigned from the public broadcaster last year after blowing the whistle on the SABC newsroom’s policy to blacklist political commentators critical of the government.
