Alan Jones on Kyle and Jackie O?

I would never have guessed. Not in my wildest dreams.

I would have thought it was more likely to have found Alan shouting from a balcony in Austria than on KIIS FM at breakfast.

From today’s guesses, the co-host is female and is not Rikki-Lee

It’s going to be quite the anti-climax if its Lauren Phillips…

But look at all this free publicity this speculation has generated. :laughing:

I’m going with Yyvie. Any one of those types are most likely (Coleman, Kent, Frost, Phillips, Chatfield)

I’m not that surprised.

Kyle and Alan as well as John Laws have always seemed to have a mutual respect for one another and they sound good on the radio together.

So the female options on the board are (ordered by probability):

  • Yvie Jones - My #1 guess. She seemed to do well when filling in on Fox. ARN like to get new talent that have proven themselves on other networks. Based in Melbourne.
  • Brooke Blurton - Now based in Melbourne. I wouldn’t rule it out.
  • Kate Langbroek - Already at the network so has to be considered, but I don’t think her style would match Jase.
  • Angie Kent - She has a podcast with Nova and the first season just finished, so it’s possible.

Highly Unlikely:

  • Lauren Phillips - The much speculated option. Rumour has it that their first choice fell through, so this would fit. Surely it would be less of a big secret if it was Lauren.
  • Sam Armytage - Sydney based. Can’t see it happening.
  • Sam Frost - Sydney based with regular Home and Away commitments

I’m ruling out:

  • Rikki-Lee Coulter - Eliminated today
  • Bec Judd - Eliminated on Friday (married to an AFL player)
  • Olympia Valance - Eliminated on Friday (dating an AFL player)
  • Jane Kennedy - Eliminated on Friday (professional comedian)
  • Carrie Bickmore - Currently on Hit Network Drive
  • Abby Coleman - Currently on B105 Breakfast
  • Abbie Chatfield - Currently hosts a podcast with Nova Podcasts
  • Danni Minogue - Just signed a contact with SCA/Listnr
  • Chrissie Swan - Currently on Nova 100 Breakfast
  • Fifi Box - Currently on Fox Breakfast

IIRC, Jase ruled out Sam shortly after they cut the initial list.

Really? I think she’s quite opinionated and would actually do a good job at not just being a second fiddle.

How nice to be able to listen to Hour of Power and hearing Gloria and Parrot plus his impersonator in Kyle Sandilands. I’m surprised no nuclear warnings sounded as two egos usually blows up when they converse.

Brooke is still filming The Bachelorette in Sydney and will only be able to join KIIS breakfast when it finishes.

The options left:
Yvie Jones, Fifi Box, Kate Langbroek, Lauren Phillips, Danni Minogue, Chrissie Swan

And if you rule out Chrissie and Fifi (for obvious reasons),
Yvie Jones, Kate Langbroek, Lauren Philips and Danni Minogue

‘Twas interesting that Jase “eliminated” Lauren Phillips (for not being a contestant on Bachelorette or Bachelor) and then was told by a producer to put her back in again… same with Yvie.

Tomorrow they just need to ask:
-Has the personality had their own radio show before?
-Are they currently on another network?

That basically gives us the final two. Watch them drag this on now.

My guess will be announce Thursday, celebrate PJ Friday, and Jase and Lauren starts on Monday :wink:

I don’t know who the new co-host will be, but I know I no longer care after this ridiculous charade.

Lauren Phillips has been in Melbourne in recent weeks after being based in Byron Bay for most of last year. Also in the podcast they announced that Caitlin (producer) and Jase flew (somewhere) Byron Bay where she was living to meet up. Yvie, Kate and Danni are all Melbourne based.

It’ll clearly 100000% be Lauren Phillips.

Now get on with it already. They’re probably buying time because they needed to delay it 7 days.

Who will replace Lauren on Weekend Today? Natalia Cooper could return to it.

Today’s question: Are they currently hosting a radio show?

Leftovers:
Lauren Philips. Yvie Jones. Danni Minogue.

I think its pretty obvious now.
Announcement tomorrow.
