Bam Bam Bye Bye

I meant to post this back on Friday... yes it happened back in April, but I'd only just found it then...


Kiss breakfast show host Bam Bam has left Kiss100.

After seven years presenting the show, Bam Bam leaves the station on a high. He has the biggest breakfast show among London’s 15- to 24-year-olds and is the third most popular morning DJ in the city overall.

Bam Bam recently attracted global interest for his Faceless podcast, which topped the download charts in the UK and the US. Clips of the podcast - containing the musings of an anonymous London student on her colourful life - were played on his breakfast show.

Bam Bam also completed a pilot TV show for a UK broadcaster, which is a take on the hidden-camera format.


BamBam will be missed certaintly... how many people can remember the "Zero Budget Advertising Campaign" when he got punters to scribble "Kiss100" on the back of dirty vans and cars, or some of the "hidden camera" tricks... One that was played most often was when StreetBoy left a mobile phone on one seat of a bus, and then BamBam called the phone, claiming to be the Government, please give the phone to our secret agent... only for the guy to leg it! Then, my own personal favourite was when they were promoting their remix of "Hooked On You", and they dived on a bus somewhere in North London, went upstairs, and did a live session... only for the driver to turn the bus short less than a minute later...
