‘It’s going to be shocking’ – Irishman Riyadh Khalaf to host Radio 1 ‘bad sex stories’ comedy

IRISH YouTube star Riyadh Khalaf has landed a slot on Radio 1 with a risqué new podcast as the station looks to shake up its schedule.

The 26-year-old Dubliner will co-host the podcast Unexpected Fluids with writer Alix Fox.

The show will see both presenters and guests telling embarrassing real-life stories about a time when sex went wrong.

Khalaf said: “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.”

The show is somewhat familiar territory for Khalaf, who found fame with his YouTube channel where his videos included his mum reading out his Grindr messages.

Unexpected Fluids is one of nine new podcasts as one of the BBC's flagship stations shakes up its content, hoping to replicate the success of previous comedies such as The Mary Whitehouse Experience and Fist of Fun.

Khalaf added: “I can’t wait to dive deep into the wonderful wet world of unexpected fluids!”

The podcast is available for download from Monday, February 19, while it is one of two hour-long shows that will broadcast weekly from Thursday, February 22 at 3am.
