Jennifer Hansen farewells Smooth FM 91.5

NOVA Entertainment has announced that Jennifer Hansen will be leaving the Smooth FM 91.5 Breakfast Show after nine years at the station.

Jennifer has been a journalist and presenter on the More Music Breakfast Show, as well as a member of the Smooth FM team since March 2014. 

With over 25 years of experience across television, radio and print, Jennifer has been heard alongside long-standing breakfast host Mike Perso, for the past nine years. 

“Exciting news, albeit tinged with sadness, that after nine wonderful years, I am finishing up at Smooth FM 91.5 for personal and professional reasons, but at least I’ll be able to turn off that dreaded 3.50am alarm,” Jennifer said.

“I am very grateful for my time on air with Mike Perso and the brilliant team behind our breakfast show, including producer Lauren Saylor and journalist Nikole Gunn.”

“I’m so proud of everything Mike and I achieved over our nine years, including winning the Number One FM breakfast radio program spot twice.”

“A huge thank you to our wonderful Smooth listeners for their loyalty over the years and to my incredible family, especially Alan for all his support and guidance. It’s now time for some very exciting new adventures – stay tuned.”

Mike Perso is glad to say that after nine years Jen was not just a colleague, but a friend. 

“We shared many laughs, and I wish her nothing but happiness in whatever adventures lie ahead,” Mike Perso said.

“To paraphrase the great Bob Dylan; May God bless and keep you always and may you stay forever young.”

Smooth FM 91.5’s More Music Breakfast Show, hosted by Mike Perso, will return on Monday, 16 January, from 5.30am on Smooth 91.5 or via the Nova Player.
