The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) has found multiple breaches of the Commercial Radio Code of Practice in broadcasts of The Kyle and Jackie O Show, following extensive investigations into content that went to air between August and December 2024.

The ACMA’s investigations resulted in breach findings against the broadcast licensees, Commonwealth Broadcasting Corporation Pty Ltd (KIIS 106.5) and Double T Radio Pty Ltd (KIIS 101.1). The Australian Radio Network (ARN) is the owner of the KIIS network.

The ACMA found three breaches of decency rules by the Melbourne licensee, KIIS 101.1, for content broadcast on the program, as well as a breach of the complaint handling rules.

The ACMA found four breaches of the decency rules by the Sydney licensee, KIIS 106.5, as well as a breach of the complaint handling rules.

Content from the investigated broadcasts included:

• Two episodes of a guessing game where audio clips of male and female staff members urinating were aired, with hosts guessing which audio belonged to which staff member. Both episodes included comments about the genitals of participants, and in the female staff member episode, graphic comments about menstruation and oral sex.
• A game where a contestant provided an offensive description of a sexual position.
• A segment which contained lewd discussions about masturbation and pornography websites.

These investigations are in addition to earlier 2025 investigations, which found three breaches of the Commercial Radio Code of Practice. In total, the ACMA has found 12 breaches this year alone.

ACMA Chair Nerida O’Loughlin said the findings into the Kyle & Jackie O Show indicate there are systemic issues with the program.

“The Kyle & Jackie O Show has repeatedly and deliberately aired content that is vulgar, sexually explicit and deeply offensive,” Ms O’Loughlin said.

“Even after previous breaches and the employment of additional censors required by the ACMA, the program continues to broadcast content that is unacceptable to the community.

“ARN as the licensee of these stations appears unwilling or unable to rein in these presenters. As a result, the ACMA is currently considering enforcement actions so that ARN takes full responsibility for the content broadcast on their stations,” Ms O’Loughlin said.

When Leroy Creed-Jones stepped onto the AFTRS campus in Sydney in February this year, he wasn’t just starting a new course – he was stepping into a new chapter of his life. After nearly a decade away from work and study, the Pitta Pitta, Kalkadoon, Gungarri and Quandamooka man from Brisbane found himself surrounded by community, opportunity and optimism for the future. 

“I’d become pretty much a homebody, and I knew I wasn’t going to get anywhere staying in Brisbane,” Leroy said. “With a passion for radio I saw this as a big opportunity for me to make something of myself.”  

Encouraged by his brother Kerrod Meredith-Creed – an AFTRS graduate who now works in the School’s First Nations team – Leroy successfully applied for the Graduate Diploma in Radio and Podcasting (GDRP), thinking he might do it part-time and even online. But at First Nations Orientation Week (held the week before whole-of-School Orientation) he felt so at home he decided to stay. And a big part of that feeling came from meeting “brother” Micah Kickett, a Wilyakali man from Broken Hill, who opted for part-time remote study while working in Canberra. 

While their journeys are different, their connection was instant and their bond with each other – and subsequently with fellow students and lecturers – has helped them to thrive throughout the course.   

Micah Kickett

“Because I’ve got a full-time job and other things that I do … sometimes it feels like it gets a bit too much,” Micah said. “But then when I speak to Leroy, it kind of gives me that sense of hope to be like, ‘Nah, if brother can do it, I can do it too’.  

“Even though I’m an online student and Leroy is on campus, it really helps just knowing that I’ve got him there. We chat constantly and keep each other informed, and if I’m struggling I’ll just call him.” 

After studying media and law at university, Micah spent eight years practicing as a lawyer. But the “burning desire” for a more creative path was always in the back of his mind. In 2019, he gave stand-up comedy a go – a bold step towards something different – but it still didn’t quite scratch the itch. One day while driving to work a strong feeling of “uncertainty” came over him that led to a sequence of events that would change his life’s course. 

“I didn’t go into work that day,” Micah recalled. “I took a left turn, then a right turn, and I rolled into the ABC. I’m like, ‘Hey I’m Micah Kickett, is there any way I could get some experience?’ They gave me a microphone and said, ‘Here you go, get some interviews’.” 

Micah got back in the car and immediately heard a radio announcement calling for trainee radio broadcasters at a community station. So he went straight there, signed up for the training and 10 weeks later was a lawyer by day and community radio volunteer broadcaster by night. This, along with his freelance ABC interviews, led to his current job as the CBAA First Nations Affairs Reporter at Parliament House. 

Micah then met Kerrod and GDRP Course Convenor Natalie Pozdeev at a CBAA conference and realised AFTRS would be the perfect career complement to “learn about podcasting and sharpen my skills”.

Leroy, who had previously studied screen media at the Bachelor Institute, said the GDRP also sparked a deeper curiosity in podcasting for him, and broadened his understanding of the wider world of audio storytelling and career possibilities. 

“When I first came to AFTRS I was just thinking about radio, I wasn’t thinking about all the other stuff, like podcasting and voiceover,” he said. “It made me realise how big radio is and all the other opportunities out there.” 

Leroy said along with key skills, the course had taught him a lot about the audio industry, the importance of audience and how to work collaboratively to produce engaging content. One highlight was working on Show Radio, at Sydney’s Royal Easter Show, where he got hands-on experience across a range of roles – from presenting to panelling and producing. He said it also helped him connect more deeply with his peers. By dropping his guard and letting his personality shine through, Leroy discovered the power of bringing his authentic self to his work. 

“At first, I wasn’t really being myself, I’ll be honest about that,” he said. “But as I started being [at AFTRS] longer, getting along with the other classmates, I started actually being myself and opening up a bit more,” he said. 

“At Show Radio they absolutely loved some of the things that come out of my mouth … I was cracking them up, even though I wasn’t trying to be intentionally funny; I was just being myself.”

Natalie Pozdeev said it was always rewarding to see that kind of growth. She emphasised the space in the industry for everyone – and that leaning into your personality is not just accepted, but encouraged. 

“What we find is the radio industry wants you to be the best version of you, so your most authentic self, and to show up exactly as that,” she said. “That’s what we find works really well.” 

Micah said while he also thought Show Radio was a highlight, what he loved most about the course went deeper than the exercises. 

“All the tasks and the assessments are quite enjoyable, and just learning how to produce stories and do radio announcements are great skills to have, but in all honesty, it’s also just the overall AFTRS experience,” he said.  

“The lecturers have been very compassionate and very understanding because I know that both Leroy and I have had issues where we’ve had to request extensions and they genuinely understand – like they understand things about the importance of family and sorry business and you feel very supported from that cultural sense as well. 

“And I also feel really supported by the non-indigenous students. I’ve seen how, on campus, they’ve really taken Leroy in and how supportive they are. It’s just cool to see.” 

With Leroy planning to graduate at the end of this year and Micah hopefully the year after, the pair say they are now brothers for life. 

“Leroy inspires me so much,” Micah said. “He’s relocated from his family, left his comfort zone, and is creating something for himself. It really helps to keep me going.” 

And this inspiration goes well beyond the AFTRS community, according to brother Kerrod. 

“Leroy has 11 nieces and nephews and when he goes home to Brisbane they’re all asking, ‘Uncle Leroy, what are you doing? What are you doing?’ And they’re showing genuine interest in the radio course,” Kerrod said. “I think it’s really cool. He’s inspiring the next generation of our family to follow their dreams and chase what they want to do.” 

Micah echoed that sentiment. “We’re not just learning for ourselves. We’re showing our communities what’s possible. We’re proving that our voices matter.”

Hear the commercials here: CANTEEN’S RADIO COMMERCIALS

Several of Australia’s major commercial radio networks – SCA, ARN and Nova Entertainment – are coming together for the first time to support young people impacted by cancer through Canteen’s Bandanna Day.

From 1 October, a radio commercial featuring radio royalty Hamish Blake (SCA), Michael “Wippa” Wipfli (Nova Entertainment) and Woody Whitelaw (ARN) will air across all three networks. The campaign, running throughout October, demonstrates radio’s unique ability to spark conversations and unite communities for an important cause. These voices are part of Australians’ daily lives, bringing trust and familiarity to Canteen’s message, especially when it comes to something as deeply personal as cancer.

Canteen’s Bandanna Day, held on 30^th October this year, is the charity’s flagship fundraising and awareness campaign. An iconic event, supported by schools, workplaces and individuals around the country, Bandanna Day has raised more than $35 million. As Canteen celebrates their milestone 40^th year, the charity – founded by young Australians, for young Australians – is embracing its spirit and trying something new and bold.

“This incredible show of unity from Australia’s biggest radio networks sets a new benchmark for an industry-wide collaboration,” said Siona Hardy, CEO of Canteen Australia.

“Bandanna Day comes at a critical time. We are seeing more young Australians being diagnosed with more aggressive and progressed cancers. And we don’t know why. Bowel cancer alone has surged by 370%.

“With 85% of our funding coming from the community, partnerships like this are vital to ensure Canteen can continue to deliver life-saving and life-changing support to young people impacted by cancer.

“We hope this collaboration inspires other industries to unite in driving donations that provide real support when it’s needed most – and to send a powerful message to young Australians impacted by cancer: you are not alone.”

Lizzie Young, CEO of Commercial Radio & Audio (CRA), said: “This campaign represents a defining moment for commercial radio, as our members – ARN, Nova Entertainment, and SCA – have united for an important cause. By turning up the volume on Canteen’s Bandanna Day, we’re rallying Australians to stand alongside young people facing cancer.”

“Bandanna Day holds a special place in our hearts at UM. We brought the networks together because we know the difference Canteen makes for young people impacted by cancer. It’s powerful to see what’s possible when we unite behind a cause that matters, and we’re proud to play our part in amplifying it,” said Andrew Clift, Managing Partner, UM.

HISTORICAL PODCAST RANKINGS
Triton Digital has retired the monthly publication of the Australian Top Publishers and Top Sales Representation rankers. The last active reporting period was May 2025.

ABOUT THE AUSTRALIAN PODCAST RANKER

The Australian Podcast Ranker lists the Top 300 podcasts from participating publishers that are consumed by listeners located in Australia. The All-Australian Top 300 Podcast Ranker lists only the Top 300 podcasts commissioned by an Australian publisher, consumed by listeners located in Australia.

The Australian Podcast Ranker is based on a calendar month reporting period. The entities listed are ranked by Monthly Listeners in accordance with the latest IAB Podcast Technical Measurement Guidelines.
