MISHKA LOESCH TO HEAT UP THE AIRWAVES ON GOOD HOPE FM

Good Hope FM, Cape Town’s Original, has announced that A-list presenter, actress, model, MC, voice artist, life coach, speaker and philanthropist, Mishka Loesch, will be joining the station on 1 May 2023.

She’ll be moving in behind the mic on The Big Breakfast with Stan Mars – the hottest radio breakfast show in the Mother City – as news anchor. The 31-year-old, Stellenbosch-born Loesch, formerly Mishka Patel, was part of the on-air team at the station before, but took a little over a year’s break to focus on a new business venture. “I had to make a choice then, and even though it was 100% the correct decision for me at the time, I am so thrilled to be back,” she says.

“The business is in a great place, and I am ready to have my voice heard again. I am
especially thrilled because I’m back in a brand-new role, a new team and a new time- slot ,  exciting times!”

She says that coming from a TV background, where many broadcasts aren’t live, radio appeals to her because of its immediacy, the fact that it sees one’s personality and your mind taking centre stage, and the fact that it provides a connection with listeners on a level that is unique and truly special.

As a loyal Big Breakfast listener, Mishka is looking forward to joining one of the craziest
radio teams on the planet: “I’ve worked with both Stan and producer Andriques (Petersen) before on weekends and they are incredible people. Both took me under their wings when I was a newbie. Dalin Oliver is just the funniest and kindest person, and being part of a team that’s absolutely committed to building something great, something next level is something I’m super stoked about.”

Good Hope FM’s Programme Manager, Gerard Muller said “The entire Good Hope FM
team is amped to have Mishka back. She brings an ideal set broadcast expertise, a passion for being in the know, warmth and compassion, personality and an amazing sense of humour to the station. Add this kind of spice to Cape Town’s Original breakfast show, and you have recipe that’ll keep even more listeners tuned – Mother City and beyond!”
