Jono and Ben, previously titled Jono and Ben at Ten, was a satirical news and entertainment show hosted by Jono Pryor and Ben Boyce in New Zealand. The show aired on Three on Thursday nights at 7:30pm, and was filmed the night before in their studios in Epsom. The show combined pre-filmed comedy sketches, pranks and parodies, linked together by segments filmed in front of a small studio audience. A third presenter, Guy Williams sat in a chair to the right of the stage and provided comic foil for the hosts. In 2015 the show moved from 10pm to 7:30pm and was extended to run for an hour; due to the timeslot change, the show was renamed Jono and Ben.
In 2017 the show moved to Thursday nights and started broadcasting live (with prerecorded segments and sketches).[1] The show was cancelled during its seventh season, marking the end to its seven year run.
From 2014 to 2016, they hosted The Rock's drive show, and from 2017 to 2019, they cohosted The Edge's drive show with Sharyn Casey.
In 2020, the duo began hosting the networked breakfast show on The Hits.
