Jono, Ben & Megan - The Podcast

Jono, Ben & Megan - The Podcast

This is mildly amusing banter at its mildly amusing best! We’re Jono Pryor, Ben Boyce, and Megan Papas—your favourite breakfast trio on The Hits. We bring you weekday mornings full of life misadventures, big interviews, fun games, and plenty of LOLs. OK, we can’t promise LOLs, but hopefully, you stopped reading after we said LOLs the first time.
