Just read that entire article. Something interesting here.

And of course, the final point there about a competition where they got female staff to record themselves urinating, and then the boys had to figure out whose bits were contributing to that urine.

That’s a fair bit of yuck content there on the show! They haven’t turned down the sex content at all from what I’ve read! Looks like The Kyle & Jackie O Show has turned into a porno show… :face_vomiting:

How can this crap be allowed on the FM airwaves? Thank goodness for The Fox and Nova, who don’t carry this sort of yuck content! That explains it all…

They should move this filth to overnights - I jumped ship to Nova when Jase and Lauren returned there.

Apparently the Greens senator challenged the ACMA boss to read transcripts of the K&J show in parliament but she refused! Finally the Greens do something I’m onboard with! Hanson-Young grilled her on why the ACMA haven’t taken action.

I’ve been thinking about this overnight and it’s almost like heading into Melbourne has backfired on them.

I haven’t seen this much attention to their smut and sex talk in a very very long time.

You’d have to wonder how much of this would be happening if they didn’t launch into Melbourne and just stayed in Sydney.

I wonder if the peeing segment was the tipping point for the previous EP leaving the show?

Or were they behind the idea?

Be interesting to find out. I wonder if he got secretly canned as a scape goat of sorts, and all the newspaper reports are off the mark?

Pedro himself though has mentioned multiple times in his podcast that he chose to step down himself. An episode released today mentions exactly what happened for him to make this decision and publicly slammed ARN bosses in his podcast.

I just can’t understand why anyone wants to listen to this crap

I cant either, they stopped the smut for a while there and were genuinely funny, then they just went into the toilet again.

This highlights a loooong held failure of media policy - moving to the self-regulation model has made it hard for ACMA to interject without following due process.

The ACMA chair called it a co-regulation model. But clearly even that isn’t working either.

Found another segment from Media Watch on K&J, this time on that urine segment.

(From September 2024)
The segment is buried in this video.

WARNING: NSFW content (audio-wise) during K&J segment.

NSFW and yet, perfectly ok for breakfast radio, perfect illustration of the issue!

That’s actually a point made by Hanson-Young at the Senate estimates. The ACMA chair refused to read out a transcript of the show saying she didn’t think it was suitable parliamentary content! Hanson-Young fired back and said “Do you think it’s suitable content for public broadcast at 6 - 10AM?”.
