Clint Roberts says he'll always be a "Rotorua boy at heart" despite landing a top role hosting one of the country's most popular radio drive slots.

As of Monday, Mr Roberts, now based in Auckland, will co-host a new show with Sharyn Casey and comedian Guy Williams on The Edge radio station.

Afternoons with Guy, Sharyn and Clint will run from 3pm to 7pm on weekdays and will replace the Fletch and Vaughan show.

Mr Roberts, previously the assistant programme director at the station, said he was excited to step into his new hosting job.

"It's really cool. I'm so excited to be working with such a cool team and I really hope people enjoy the show," he said.

"It's a fresh, new start for us, for the station and for listeners. I think everyone can expect to have a lot of laughs."

The main objective of the show was to "have a laugh" and include and entertain listeners, he said.

Mr Roberts' passion for radio stems back to when he went to high school in Rotorua, before he studied at the New Zealand Broadcasting School in Christchurch, he said.

"I just love how radio is such an immediate medium. You can break news and the music part of it is pretty cool too, at any moment you can share the biggest and best songs with listeners," he said.

"But the real perk of the job, is doing what I love."

Mr Roberts said that although his career had taken him away from Rotorua, the city was still a big part of who he was.

"I'm still a Rotorua boy at heart. It's part of me ... my family lives in Rotorua and I love coming home for Christmas."
