Brilliant news!

Irish YouTube and radio star, Riyadh Khalaf, has just announced that he will be part of a new podcast series on BBC Radio 1.

Imma be a @BBCR1 presenter!! Total dream come true. @alixfox and I are going to bring the good, bad, & messy of sex in a comedy show that'll probably get us in trouble. Get ready for 'Unexpected Fluids' ?? https://t.co/XpkXGYAuIw

Together with Alix Fox, he will host the show Unexpected Fluids, which will detail real-life embarrassingly honest stories about sex going wrong. Each show is themed, with guests and presenters kicking things off with a story on that theme. Speaking ahead of the launch of the new series, Riyadh said:

"I’m super excited to work on a daring podcast with a team I’ve admired for years at BBC Radio 1. It’s going to be shocking, it’s going to be funny and you might just learn something by accident! Listening to it is going to be like talking to your best mate about awful, crazy, one night stands. I’m dying to get in studio with Alix - the two of us have become like a pair of oversharing siblings trying to out-shock each other. I can’t wait to dive deep into the wonderful wet world of unexpected fluids!"
