Kyle and jackie o & Sydney radio

[Jousams]

New show starts tomorrow morning. Just a bit curious as to whether my fellow AFF'ers will be making the switch to KIIS?
If not, what stations/shows do you normally listen to?

Sorry if you don't live in Sydney.

I'm an ABC girl, regardless of city. (Melbourne)
I can't stand how cheerful commercial morning radio is, and have a philosophical objection to Kyle.

 

[Jousams]

I wasn't a huge fan either, But they grow on you.

Like warts.

I wouldn't listen to them if they were the last radio announcers on the planet.

Fran Kelly for me.

What's a radio?

Just the thought of Sandilands disgusts me, his cohort isn't much better.

4ZZZ in Brisbane, I haven't really found a station on the coast but don't mind giving the J's a spin for Dr Karl

I was going to give this post a 'like', but then I saw the bit about Fran Kelly.

I don't know who Fran Kelly is so I liked it anyway

Trust me, you're better off that way.

I make sure I have a solid backlog of podcasts to listen to - if I ever do listen to radio on the morning commute then I have zero allegiance to anything but what sounds good/interesting at the time. (I find most of the morning FM hosts are annoying in their own ways - JJJ usually the best of the bunch though)

His crony is worse in a lot of ways as she enables him.

I do listen to commercial radio as I have bowed to public pressure from the kids. Fortunately being based north of Sydney I don't get the choice of Kyle and Jackie O. They are (or were) broadcast here as "The Hour of Power" early evening on the local Austereo. Can't say I'll miss them

Journo who sits on the centre-right wing of the spectrum. A lot of people dislike her because of her personal life even though it never seems to enter into her professional work.

Me too!

I'm not normally awake for breakfast radio. The main time I hear radio now is when a business is playing it or I'm in a cab.

Mix/Kiis has been deleted from my radio.

What a stupid name for a rebranded radio station!

Commercial Radio? You must be kidding.

Agreed.

I don't actually own a radio tuner. The only time I listen to it is if I'm in someone's car (eg: taxi) with it on.

A bit like an annoying fungus

I stick to AM here in Melbourne, really only for clock - radio wakeup.

Listen to AW, between the ads some some occasionally intelligent stuff can be gleaned.
