White Wine Question Time

Johnny Vaughan on mastering radio, managing pressure and breakfast TV chaos


Listen Later

Joining us today is a man whose voice is synonymous with radio greatness and whose charm, sharp wit, and quick humour has made him a favourite on our screens. He knows how to keep an audience hooked: it’s the brilliant Johnny Vaughan!


In this episode, Johnny looks back at his time working on The Big Breakfast, reflecting on the challenge of stepping into big shoes and how he quickly made the role distinctly his own. He also shares how he’s built one of radio’s most loyal audiences, navigated the pressures of being one of the BBC’s highest-paid presenters and how some hilarious interviews led to delightfully unexpected friendships with legends like David Bowie and George Michael.


If you can’t get enough of him, tune into The 4 to 7 Thang every weekday on Radio X.
