What's your most embarrassing moment?
I often have embarrassing moments but one that stands out the most is doing a massive interview with a top CEO who’s company had spent so much money on a competition and I hit a blank and forgot the guys name completely when saying thank you at the end – very akward and totally unprofessional!
 
What's the best piece of advice you've received?
Decisions are never easy but once you’ve made your mind up stick it out for as long as you can.
What's your secret indulgence?

Very expensive watches and fast cars

 
Who has influenced you most?
People with a great sense of humour! There are so many of them out there who are looking at life with a hint of optimism and a smile through the tough times we’re all experiencing in the country at the moment.
 
What's a typical Sunday morning like for you?
At the moment it’s gonna be to get as much sleep as I can over the next few weekends but I guess that will change in time. I am a family guy so Sunday’s are all about family time.
 
Bio
Ryan O’ Connor is a born and bred Capetonian and says he “loves the city and its people.” He got his first job in radio at community station CCFM in 1995, shortly after matriculating from Edgemead High School. “I had a Christian dance music show on Friday nights, but it was my break into radio and I was grateful for it,” he says. Ryan gained further radio experience by writing and presenting weekend sport on 94.5 Kfm, before moving to Good Hope FM, where he stayed for close to nine years presenting first the breakfast show and then afternoon drive. During this time he also did a short weekend stint at 5FM. Ryan says he always wanted to be a radio presenter. “I grew up listening to the radio a lot, so music has always been a part of my life. Even as a kid I knew that I would be in radio one day.” When he’s not presenting the Cape’s biggest breakfast show on 94.5 Kfm, Ryan enjoys spending time outdoors, running and cycling. At home he enjoys watching sport, listening to 80’s music, collecting sought after Swiss watches and spending time with his wife.
