Sam Cowen, who has been hosting this early afternoon slot since she joined
702 at the beginning of the year, will join Africa Melane to co-host
Weekend Breakfast on
702 and
CapeTalk from 06:00 to 10:00.
Sam Cowen joined from sister station
947 where she had been part of the breakfast show for 16 years.
“We have loved hearing Sam find her voice as the driver of her own talk show,” said
702 station manager, Pheladi Gwangwa. “With her natural affinity for lifestyle and entertainment topics and her ability to have fun on air, we felt she was better suited to the weekend show and know she will bring her energy to our listeners each weekend morning.”
Mosaka moved to
702 and
CapeTalk in January to co-host the weekend slot with Africa Melane. Mosaka brought with her over a decade of broadcast experience in both radio and TV. On early afternoons, she will be able to balance her interests in lifestyle and popular culture with more serious news and current affairs issues.
“We constantly assess the sound of the station and believe that this change puts both Azania and Sam into time channels that play to their strengths and will allow them to shine, and to deliver the best to our audiences,” said Gwangwa.
The change will be effective from Saturday, 1 August 2015.
