Life on the Edge: Radio Star Reveals All - A Memoir

Published by Allen & Unwin, Auckland, 2016, 318 pages.

Top radio host Jay-Jay Harvey tells all in these stories of her 22 years at hugely popular radio station The Edge.
Jay-Jay Harvey has been at The Edge radio station since it started 22 years ago, helping it to become New Zealand's most popular radio station with nearly 700,000 listeners.

She has been paint balled, pierced, shaved bald, hypnotised, and whatever else was required - all to entertain her listeners. She has married complete strangers (who are all still together), fundraised while sleeping in a shopping mall, interviewed huge stars like Tom Cruise, Lady Gaga and Oprah, danced her way to fourth place on Dancing with the Stars, and been naked in public too many times to count!

She takes us behind the scenes of some of the craziest stuff she has done for ratings and lets us peek into her personal journey in radio that includes dobbing in a workmate, numerous job offers, making out at work, changing her name twice, losing a co-host to suicide, working with her husband and fighting depression with a smile on her face.
