Show Notes
Exactly as our oracle Lu predicted last week, Jackie âOâ Henderson has sensationally quit her $100 million contract with KIIS FM following an on-air blow-up with longtime co-host Kyle Sandilands. Naturally, we had to jump straight on the mics to urgently unpack the bombshell statement, share our predictions on what Kyle and Jackie might do next, what this means for the future of Australian radio, and discuss why - at its core - the abrupt end of this radio dynasty feels really quite sad. Will Kyle and Jackie O ever be mates again? Is it all the blood moonâs fault? And, most importantly⌠are the astrologers okay? đđŽ The Fifth Trimester bangers playlist (updated weekly!)
