Who is Toby Tarrant?

Tobias Charles Tarrant, born on October 29, 1991, is a radio presenter on Radio X in England.

He began his radio career on Capital FM in 2014, hosting the early morning show. In October 2016, he switched to Radio X, hosting from 4 am to 6:30 am. He also filled in for The Chris Moyles Show when Chris Moyles was away.

Because more people started listening to his early show (29% more, to be exact) and he appeared on Moyles' show, Tarrant got a promotion in April 2018. He moved to the mid-morning slot (10 am to 1 pm), taking over from Jack Saunders. The first hour of his show is when listeners can request songs.

In October 2018, Tarrant and fellow Radio X DJ Johnny Vaughan (who replaced his dad on the Breakfast Show at Capital) won an episode of the BBC One show Pointless.
