Darren 'Whackhead' Simpson joins KFM

KFM has confirmed Darren 'Whackhead' Simpson will be joining the station from July 3.

Earlier this year Darren left his popular breakfast show on 947 to take on the afternoon slot, saying that he wanted to spend time with his family.

"The show comes with a lot of responsibility and I went up and told management that something has got to change. For a family man the afternoon drive is the best option."

It seems he has done a u-turn though and will now be hosting a breakfast show again, but this time on a different station.
