Sydney radio ratings: Kyle and Jackie O, and Alan Jones, both make gains in breakfast
The two leaders in Sydney’s breakfast radio market have increased their share of audience, with 2GB securing 16.4% of the market between 5:30am and 9:00am, and Kiis 106.5 climbing to 11.4% – gains of 1.2 and 1.3 share points respectively.
The nearest competitor was ABC Sydney – down 0.1 points to 10.3% – while in the FM market, Smooth 95.3, was down 0.5 points to 8%.
Kyle Sandilands and Jackie Henderson’s breakfast dominance continues
The results of the second radio survey of 2019 mean Alan Jones remains top of the Sydney AM breakfast market, while the Kyle and Jackie O Show on Kiis still dominates the FM market.
Nova’s 96.9, which runs the Fitzy & Wippa show, fell 0.5 to 6.9%, while 2Day FM’s breakfast show with Ed Kavalee, Grant Denyer and Ash London climbed just 0.1 points to 4.5%.
The challenged Macquarie Sports Radio remained stagnant in breakfast, with just 0.6% of the audience.
In drive, Smooth FM remained on top on the FM bandwidth, climbing 0.1 points to 10.3%. ABC Sydney climbed 1.1 points to edge ahead on 10.4%.

Kiis 106.5’s Will and Woody also had a good survey, climbing 1.8 points to 8.7%.
Overall in the Sydney market, 2GB remains untouchable with 14.5% of people aged 10-plus – up from last survey’s 13.4%.
Kiis almost took the FM crown in Sydney – climbing 1.4 points to 9.1% – but Nova’s Smooth FM remained ahead on 9.5%, despite a 0.2 share point fall.
Macquarie Sports radio fell 0.1 points to retain just 0.5% of the market overall.
I have been listening to radio for years and without doubt Kyle & Jackie O & Alan Jones are the best broadcasters in not just Sydney, but the country.
The survey wins for KIIS and 2GB at breakfast are well deserved.
Nobody will top them till they retire.

These moves are share. Not actually people Survey 2 is when Content Directors around Sydney start realising their holiday just cost budget and what we’re those changes to talk hours on FM apart from the MMMs who pretty much have my vote as the replacement for reactionary unprofitable abCD audience. But the music stations in the Melbourne and Sydney what research is that based on.
Maybe my guys aren’t there because these people at all the Arn..Sca.Murdoch owned outlets only have a few great programming teams pulled too thin by no research and debt that I agree needs to be paid.
And all those selling PODCASTS as gold. What a laugh. I skip the ads. IE don’t listen unless one of my guys did a great show.
But that change you made to Drive start Nova did you outside gtk or tracking lol actually research it?
Kat Tim and Marty only need to do 2 hours 4-6.
Seriously
Best of a good breakfast show might help the bookends but ones that are at the end of the cycle come on
Like your about to make it my problem and you don’t think the network needs those long termers
I’m a radio programmer not arse covered if it fits up. So be it
