Radio presenter Niko Saarinen tells about their recent biography of the inflammation of their former NRJ stance Julianna Jokela with.
He describes Mari Koppinen in writing Niko – all I haven’t told -In, after a few years of working together, he was thinking about whether the radio was his thing after all, because there was not as much joy as he originally thought.
“The pain just grew when I was baked by the radio presenter of the year and NRJ’s morning was awarded as a radio program of the year,” Saarinen describes in the book.
The dispute in the live broadcast cut the camel’s back and Saarinen decided to stop completely on the radio.
– One Tuesday morning in March 2025, we and Julianna had a collision in the middle of a spiral. It is not unusual at all, it happens to radio presenters and also to us because we work closely together. We had taken together every now and then in small things and we didn’t agree with everything. However, the cams had always been very small. Now we could not get the matter very well, says Saarinen in the work.
Ilta-Sanomat Saarinen says that the dispute is about visiting the people’s library in the broadcast.
– I said people were going to the library, and Julianna said they were not. And then I said that the fuck is. That’s where it left, Saarinen told Ilta-Sanomat.
On the way from work home, he decided to say herself.
– It felt like I was no longer able to work where I had to be a little on my toes all the time. Making the decision was painful as our listener numbers were growing and we had had many good moments. Finally, on Thursday, I went to my supervisor and announced that it was time for me to quit. It was a shock to everyone. The big wheels started to spin as they began to think about how from now on.

Throughout the spring, the presenters knew the program would end, and the expectation was heavy. The release of the news seemed liberating.
– I took a few months from the radio to find my love for it and think about what kind of person I am on the radio. During the break, I realized that my love for the radio was never dead. But it died in the Jokela & Saarinen program, he says in the book.
Niko Saarinen said he would return to the radio with a new line -up in NRJ in the morning. He will soon start to host a program called Saarinen Shöön together Niko Nousiainen and Mari Princess Stålhammarin with.
Niko -All I haven’t told the book (Otava) written by Mari Koppinen was published on August 13th.
