So this morning I was just casually reclining in my bed (Egyptian cotton sheets, goose down pillow, Ralph Lauren pyjama's.......you get the idea) at around 7.50am having been awoken by my alarm clock radio which since the demise of the Merrick and Dools show, is now tuned into the Kyle and Jackie O show.
I was spacing out pretty heavily and it was only when the most overplayed song on Australian radio at the moment (Someone like you. I am so sick of you Adele) came on that I tuned in. Not because I wanted to hear the song, but because I distinctly heard Jackie O outlandishly state that she too was sick of the song which frankly made me laugh, did Jackie not realise her mic was still switched on?
The chitter chatter only got better when Kyle Sandilands accidentally on air admitted that yes indeed, he is the father of an illegitimate love child. You can hear the audio here. Needless to say I lost the plot and immediately got on twitter trying to trend this shit.
The cyber world has been abuzz all day with speculation that this is simply a PR stunt or a hoax. Personally I can't decide. On one hand I think it could be an honest mistake - but then such an extended convo over a song would be a ridiculous breach of professionalism considering that both mics were left open for an astoundingly long period. But perhaps all the board operators at 2day FM are complete gronks and that's why they were able to get away with it?
Maybe it is a publicity stunt? If it is I'd say it's a pretty rubbish one.
Either way the austero network is keeping mum on the topic which means we'll all have to tune in tomorrow morning when Kyle will apparently 'address the issue'. Hmmmmm I wonder how many listeners he'll get then?
