Gareth Cliff

Gareth Cliff took the leap from traditional radio in May 2014 with the launch of CliffCentral.com, pioneering online media and podcasting in South Africa. Gareth is one of South African radio’s most irreverent radio and television personalities with a career spanning 25 years. He kicked off his radio career at campus station Radio TUKS in Pretoria; later “graduated” to 702 Talk Radio where he replaced the legendary John Berks on the 702 Breakfast Show in 2001; and three years later joined national youth station 5FM where he remained as the breakfast show host before launching CliffCentral.com. Gareth was a judge on South African Idols for 11 seasons, hosted The Gareth Cliff Show on Mnet, and, most recently, So What Now? on eNCA. He has won numerous awards for best radio and television personality and has written two books.
