Jono and Ben are moving from The Rock to The Edge as part of multiple key talent moves across MediaWorks' radio brands announced today.
Thane Kirby will also move from George to The Rock afternoons, Andrew Mulligan will return to the Morning Rumble and The Edge host Clint Roberts will join George FM Breakfast.
"We have the best talent in the business and the changes we have announced today only strengthen our line-up," says Leon Wratt, MediaWorks Radio group content director of music.
"It's about taking our talent to where their audience sweet spot is, to grow and challenge them while enhancing our brands."
Jono Pryor and Ben Boyce are joining Sharyn Casey as Edge Afternoons co-hosts.
"We sailed a bouncy castle across lake Taupo, a banana boat across Cook Strait and sold our souls on cans of energy drinks at The Rock. I can't wait to see what shameless radio promotions lie ahead at The Edge with Sharyn," says Jono.
"I'm looking forward to Jono and Ben ditching the Metallica t-s hirts and letting their Taylor Swift flag fly high," adds Casey.
"I'm really proud of what I've achieved with Guy & Clint but Jono and Ben might be able to get me a good deal on a Holden, so ya know, a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do."
After its strong recent survey, The Rock sees Thane Kirby become its new drive time co-host, alongside Duncan Heyde - replacing Jono & Ben.
"I'm trading in my vodka lime 'n sodas for bourbon and coke and making the leap beyond Ponsonby!," says Kirby.
"I'm stoked to be part of an award-winning radio station and will dedicate the remainder of my brain cells to hanging out on-air with like minded blokes across the country."
As Tom Furniss moves overseas, Andrew Mulligan is being welcomed back after three years to replace him on The Morning Rumble will welcome back after three years.
"It's so great to be back among old friends and to be an integral part of The Morning Rumble. I'm pumped to be part of an award winning show again," says Mulligan.
On his move from The Edge to George, Clint Roberts says: "I've played my last T-Swift jam for a while, and I'm fizzed up to assemble New Zealand's newest breakfast show on George FM - home of the bangers!"
The changes will take effect from January 2017.
