Neil Fox and Johnny Vaughan, two of commercial radio's biggest names, chat about 'Sachsgate', on-air gaffes and how they manage to get up in time for their breakfast shows.

NEIL FOX - PRESENTER, MORE MUSIC BREAKFAST SHOW, MAGIC 105.4

- What makes your show special?

It's a breakfast show on a music station that actually plays a lot of music. And we don't have a team of people pretending to laugh at things that aren't funny.

- How would you describe your style of presenting?

There's no doubt that when I came to Magic, I had to learn some new broadcasting skills (ie. word economy), but it has made me a better, more mature presenter. I've got three wonderful children now and being a father definitely helps me relate to my audience. I am on air who I am off air. Always have been, always will be.

- What's the key to getting people to open up and be entertaining on air?
