There’s been much anticipation as to who will join Steph Monks and Sean Hill this year on The Edge Drive.
But the wait is finally over! From Monday February 3, actor, comedian and TikTok sensation Harrison Keefe will ‘bring the vibes’ as the third host of The Edge Afternoons.
Harrison is already part of The Edge whānau having co-hosted the Saturday Vibes afternoon show alongside his friend and social media collaborator Nepia Takuira-Mita in 2024.
Casey Sullivan, The Edge Content Director says: “Harrison’s bread and butter is social media and his chemistry with Steph and Sean is great, so we’re confident The Edge audience will fall in love with them.”
In true Harrison style, he’s got a special video message he wanted to share about his new gig.
Harrison became an Edge Intern in the Hawkes Bay in 2017 and later studied at drama school before starting his own podcast, creating a bunch of online content that (by his own admission) went nowhere, and finally striking viral gold with his 'Ahikāroa' co-star Nepia. The two of them became 'The Vibe Guys' that we know and love from their dance videos on TikTok.
"I can't believe what a full circle moment this is, seven years later I finally land the gig of being a radio presenter," he said.
I want to thank everyone who got me to where I am today... I'm so eternally grateful. This show is going to be the biggest show of the year - it's gonna be massive!
Welcome to the team, mate!
