Meet Mylo & Rosie:

What is your favourite thing about presenting Hits Radio West Yorkshire?

Mylo told us: 'An escape from the doom and gloom in the world. Two best mates having a laugh and taking the mess out of each other for a few hours on a morning!'

Of course, Rosie agreed and said: 'Real life from two proper Yorkshire folk that have grown up around these parts. We love nothing more than making our listeners laugh and it's an honour we get to spend our mornings with them in a place we LOVE.'

What can we expect from your show?

Mylo shares his love for 'Beat the Bandit' saying the best part of the show must: 'Definitely Beat The Bandit at 8:15. I love a good quiz and giving money away, but also it's an opportunity to get listeners on for a natter!'

Rosie told us how much she enjoys working with her best mate, saying: 'Of course working with my boy Mylo. Who else gets to say that they work with their best mate? Every single day I laugh till it hurts.'

Who's the best guest you've had on the show and why?

Mylo revealed his favourite guest to us: 'We've had some proper A-Listers on like Little Mix, One Direction, Busted etc... but we just had a proper laugh with Rylan! He was one of the most down to earth people ever and the interview just ended like 3 mates in the pub ripping the hell out of each other. '

Rosie added: ' We are so lucky to have had so many amazing people on our show over the years. This is the point where our mothers will insist, we say THEM. But really it's probably Rick Astley, utter legend and all round funny man. Olly Murs, he is a top lad. He always makes you want to go for a beer with him afterwards and you know who else was a fabulous human... Rylan! He's such a kind and funny human. He was such a joy to speak to. I feel like I've missed so many people out now. If you're reading this and you've been on our show....then YOU. You're my favourite! '

Which song is your go-to karaoke anthem?

We all love a sing-song, so we asked Mylo & Rosie what their favourite karaoke anthem is. Mylo told us: 'The Darkness - I Believe In A Thing Called Love. Although like a rare species of bird, you'll be very lucky to see me on Karaoke'.

Rosie added: 'Any Disney anthem! Annnnyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!'

So if you see em about, don't forget to take the opportunity to karaoke!

What’s been your biggest highlight from your show?

Mylo told us: 'Definitely winning 2 x Golden ARIA awards. They are like the Oscars for the radio industry, and I was so humbled and overwhelmed that 2 best mates from West Yorkshire we're recognised at a national level!'

Rosie also said how the ARIA's have been a highlight for her and added: 'We once performed the show LIVE to a full studio audience. I didn't stop laughing with them for the full four hours. It has to be one of my favourite days EVER! '

What’s been your biggest highlight from your radio career so far?

Everyone remembers the best moments in their life, and so we asked Mylo about the higlight of his career so far. He said: 'The pinch me moment has to be when we did the show from Barbados. We were joined by one of my radio idols, Tony Blackburn and even got him on the shots!'

Rosie added: 'It had to be the ARIAS! We've been so very lucky to win not one but two Aria Gold Awards. They were absolute pinch me moments that I cherish and will be forever grateful for.'
