Ricky Wilson, frontman of the Kaiser Chiefs, has become something of a swing-jock for Radio 2, covering for Sara Cox, Dermot O'Leary and others since the start of the year. Now he gets the big one. Or the sticky end of the stick, depending on your view. He's covering for Simon Mayo for the next two weeks, on the Jo and Simon Show (“In six months’ time it will be a very different show.” Lewis Carnie, Head of Radio 2, June 2018).
Simon Mayo is 59; Ricky Wilson is 40. The average age of a Radio 2 listener is 52, but the station says it "has an increased focus on reaching younger
35-44s and specifically less well-off women aged 35-44."
