East Coast Radio wishes Phat Joe well as he departs the station

Phat Joe, who has been with ECR for a year, is leaving the station due to a variety of exciting new commitments outside of KZN. 

Phat Joe has contributed substantially to East Coast Radio in his time as Drive presenter, but his demanding schedule has put undue pressure on him.

East Coast Radio Programming Manager Zane Derbyshire says, “Phat Joe is one of the most respected entertainment personalities in South Africa, and while the relationship has ended sooner than we would have liked, we understand the demanding nature of his new projects. 

At the same time the Drive show is one of the flagship shows on the station and requires the full-time dedication of its host in Durban.  We would like to wish Joe all the success with his new ventures, which he will be launching soon. He remains a friend of East Coast Radio.” 

A new Drive show host will be announced shortly.
