Completely unsourced article, with some vaguely but not blatantly advertorial undertones, about an eponymous radio show with no strong claim of standalone notability as a separate topic from its host. As always, if a radio show doesn't really have a name per se, but rather its "name" is just the name of the person who hosts it because it's fundamentally just "dude who hosts standard daypart" rather than "actual thing that exists in its own right independently of dude and would continue to exist even if dude got fired or died", then the show doesn't get an automatic inclusion freebie in the absence of reliable source coverage about the show to properly support that it actually has independent notability as a separate topic from the host.

  • Merge selectively to Nick Grimshaw. That the show has apparently not even premiered yet is hard evidence against notability (is it September 3rd in the UK yet?): any coverage would be merely routine announcements and verification of existence. If this program wins major awards, or attracts significant non-routine coverage, or other evidence of why it should be in an encyclopedia, then perhaps a separate article might be warranted. --Animalparty!
