A 10 point plan for Kyle and Jackie O
It’s been a very, very bad, no good week for ARN and Kyle and Jackie O, so in this week's episode we provide a 10 point plan for them to ignore as they evolve from Sydney world beaters to national breakfast show. Also in this episode we discuss the fall-out of national networking on Nova and Kiis and how this leaves Fox with a genuine advantage in the Melbourne radio wars.

Revenge is a breakfast dish best served cold
In this weeks’ episode we reflect on the amazing #1 FM result for Nova’s Jase and Lauren - will this be the first of many? Or can Kyle and Jackie make further in-roads into Melbourne market. Plus we’re joined by radio futurologist James Cridland who was our first guest on the podcast back in April, we talk to him about the assumptions and assessments made of Kyle and Jackie 4 months ago that we need to revisit in the light of the survey 5 result.

We talk with one of our favourites Tim Burrowes from Unmade Media about ARN’s end of year results. and we’ll stick our collective necks out and take a swing at predictions for Tuesday’s ratings results.

Too new for Bonnie Blue?
In this episode we review one of Kyle and Jackie O’s biggest moments from the Melbourne Radio Wars so far, this week’s interview with only fans creator Bonnie Blue. With the Olympics finishing up, Irene will reflect on those podium worthy moments from this battle, and another 2day breakfast show bites the dust, who will replace Hughesy, Ed and Erin?

Pizzagate
Ding, ding. In the red corner, he’s the Nova flop with a mouth that can’t stop flapping - Wade Kingsley. And in the blue corner, the King of all radio who never pulls his punches - Kyle Sandilands. In this episode we step back in to the ring and discuss Wade’s accidental appearance on the Kyle and Jackie O show, plus we talk about the value of listener research - whether you like your feedback to be thick and chewy or thin and crispy, there’s plenty of reasons why those free pizza sessions with listeners are worthwhile. And our guest this week is Todd Campbell who fought many a radio battle in Melbourne when he was content director of Nova100 in the early 2000’s.

A candid Canadian has his say “Maybe you guys can explain what Fev does?”
This week on the podcast we talk with Canadian radio veteran Buzz Bishop about what he’s hearing and liking on Melbourne radio. Buzz has been a fan of Australian radio for many years and has some unique insights delivered apologetically like only a good Canadian can. Also this week we focus on the 3 female superstars who are spearheading their stations’ focus on Melbourne’s 25-44 females. And was Nova’s Hide & Seek worth the $84,000 investment? Wade and Irene heard it differently. Game Changers is sponsored by MusicMaster Scheduling - Smashing out music made easy.

Also this week we sail into Stormy waters and discuss the value of a porn star on the Fox, and we’ll crank up the age old question of whether cash contesting can really make a difference in the ratings.

I'm out. Now what? Jules Lund
Pick yourself. In 2001 I picked Jules Lund to be the star of a radio stunt on FoxFM called “15 days of Fame”. He’s been picking himself every since. From investing $10,000 in a showreel which helped land his first job on TV as the host of Getaway, to paying a videographer out of his own salary in 2014 to help create an online strategy for his role on the 2day breakfast show - Jules has always been prepared to put his money where his loudmouth is to make things happen. According to Jules, in today’s modern media - “You don’t have to wait for anyone - just pick yourself.” The founder of Tribe, Jules Lund provides a master class on how you can create your own tribe. “What I love about social media is you can be you and still find an audience.” Follow Craig on Twitter - @cb_bruce Join us on Instagram - radio_game_changers Game Changers: Radio - Insights and Lessons from the World's Best Broadcasters and Programmers is available now.

Episode 29 - Rising Stars - Ash London
From a young age it was clear that Ash London had but one ability in life – the gift of the gab. Lucky for her, that gift has landed her on television screens and radio dials for the better part of her 20’s. After forcing herself to attend university for three years, where she earned a bachelor of communications in media, Ash set off on a London adventure that cemented a lifelong love of live music. After revelling in Ray La Montagne at Royal Albert Hall to watching a then unknown Ellie Goulding at a Camden pub, she decided that she would actually die if she did not secure a career in the entertainment industry. A few short years later it all paid off when she beat 1200 other contestants and landed her first TV gig, hosting Saturday morning music show The Loop , a role she enjoyed for three successful years. 2014 saw her branch out into radio, co-hosting Australia’s longest running radio chart show Take 40 with Angus O’Loughlin, and then launching Shazam Top 20 around the country every night across the Today network in 2015. Continuing both shows in 2016, it was also the year that saw her serve on Australia’s first ever Eurovision Juror Panel, and also host Junior Eurovision on SBS. Ash has also made regular appearances on Ten’s The Project , and Dirty Laundry Live for ABC. She also appears as an entertainment host worldwide on Redbull TV. In 2017 Ash returned to radio, launching her national nights show across the HIT network - Ash London Live - celebrating her music passion weeknights around the country. Her work has seen her interview everyone from One Direction to Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande to Adele, Bruno Mars to Slash. She’s talked colonics with MGMT, enjoyed a piggy back from Ed Sheeran and been invited to be the stand-in backup bass player in 5 Seconds of Summer. Also once she voiced a condom commercial which didn’t go down too well at family dinner. Game Changer: Radio Game Changers: Radio is a show dedicated to the radio industry.

Episode 13 - Tony Martin
Tony Martin joined the D-Gen - a truly revolutionary FM breakfast show - in 1987, and continued with them until 1992. In 1995 he and Mick Molloy re-imagined the way we would listen to drive radio. They created Martin/Molloy, which became Australia’s first national drive show and dominated the FM landscape for three years. In 2006 he created one of the most talked about radio shows ever, Get This , with Ed Kavalee and Richard Marsland. The show’s fan base is as rabid today as it was a decade ago. In 2017 he released an innovative new show, Childprrof, which is an unprodcued TV sitcom recorded live at the Melbourne Fringe Festival and released as a podcast. Tony’s success is a combination of incredible writing skills, along with the ability to perform his own words, a prodigious work ethic and an obsession with the infinite possibilities of audio. His career is a benchmark in our industry and an inspiration for anyone wanting to make comedy. 'You just don't want to waste people's time... We had this philosophy we wanted to be a show, not a shift... Every bit of it has to be good and surprising'. Game Changers: Radio is a show dedicated to the radio industry.

Episode 12 - Richard Stubbs
Richard Stubbs literally changed the game for breakfast radio in the mid 80s as the first stand-up comedian to cross-over to breakfast radio. He started at 3XY on the Morning Zoo in 1985 before moving to MMM in the late 80s. In 1992 The Richard Stubbs Breakfast Show replaced the D-Generation, and went on to become one of the most successful shows of the time. Stubbsy then forged a new path for FM hosts by crossing over to the ABC in 2004. After 11 years of success in the afternoon slot, he made the decision to hang up the headphones at the end of 2015. Richard’s observational humour, natural intelligence and listening skills are some of the reasons why his career has been successful. 'Radio is hideously personal... My mantra's always been if someone's a moron, I'm going to be better. I'll be 10 per cent better to cover your moron-ness'. Find out more about Richard here .

Episode 11 - Fifi Box
Fifi Box got her first break on the national stage as co-host of MMM's Shebang with Marty Sheargold and Byron Cooke. The show reached #1 around Australia in 2004. Her on-air chemistry with Marty is still recognised as one of the most potent combinations on FM. Fifi moved to the Today Network in 2008, hosting a national weekend breakfast show before taking on national drive with Jules Lund in 2011. The show became one of the first truly social, multi-platform shows on radio. Fifi now hosts Fifi, Fev and Byron on Fox in Melbourne. 'I just realised I’ve got to give this everything... You've got nothing to lose… I will give you everything I’ve got, because I know what it’s like to fold people’s clothing and do their ironing, and I didn’t love that.'

Episode 10 - Amanda Keller
Amanda Keller's contribution to radio and the community in Sydney has been so good over such a long period that she was awarded an Order of Australia in 2016. If it’s true that great storytelling is at the heart of radio’s connection to its audience, then it is easy to see why Amanda is recognised as an elite radio performer. She started her career at 2MMM in the late 90s on the Andrew Denton Breakfast Show, and their on-air partnership resulted in a #1 show. In more recent times, Amanda has reached #1 again with her great mate Brendan Jones on Jonesy & Amanda - a feat few broadcasters have achieved in the Sydney breakfast market. 'They want your loyalty, they want you to share your life, particularly breakfast radio, that's the gig... You share your life and people respond to you, and then you can be told to leave without even a chance to say goodbye to your audience.'

Episode 9 - Matt Tilley
After getting his start as a writer on the Grubby and Dee Dee breakfast show at Fox in the early 90s, Matt Tilley went on to have one of the longest and most successful stints with a metro FM radio station. Alongside Tracy Bartram, he took Fox to #1 in the late 90s, and 13 years later he still dominated the Melbourne FM landscape with Jo Stanley. Matt is a brilliant all-rounder, but he will be best remembered for his 'Gotcha Calls', which became the must-listen-to segment on Melbourne radio (often attracting the highest listenership of any breakfast show at the height of this segment) and later through the 'Gotcha Call CDs', which raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for charity. Matt spent a year on MMM in 2014, and moved back into breakfast on the newly branded KIIS Melbourne in 2015. 'We always figured we could work harder than other shows... If it took calling people for 10 different segments just to get 30 seconds of radio, we'd do it.' Game Changers: Radio is a show dedicated to the radio industry.

Episode 8 - Hamish Blake
Hamish Blake is one half of arguably the most successful show on FM in Australian radio history, Hamish & Andy , and Hamish and his best mate Andy Lee are groundbreaking figures in event radio. Hamish and Andy started as a development show on Fox in 2001, and over the next four years refined their act on late nights and weekends before moving into the national drive slot on the Today network in 2006. Their ratings were astronomical. Highlights included 25 per cent of the Melbourne drive market and a national audience of more than 2 million, making it the most listened to Australian radio show. Ever. With ground breaking ideas - like the Caravan of Courage and the Tall Ships Adventure - Hamish and Andy established themselves as more than just a radio show: they are one of the most potent media brands in Australia. 'I've been incredibly fortunate to be side by side with someone that I think is so funny, but is also so driven... To use a cycling analogy, I can just slipstream him a bit'.
