Comedian Sammy J has taken a hilarious swipe at rivals Kyle & Jackie O in the wake of yet another radio survey which revealed the Sydney-syndicated show is bleeding listeners.
The popular presenter of ABC Radio’s breakfast show took to social media on Monday after it was revealed his program performed best overall, growing his share from 7.3 to 8.2 per cent.
“All these months asking my ABC listeners whether they’ve done anal has really paid off,” he joked to his 56K Instagram followers.
The lighthearted jab, referencing Sandilands’ penchant for crude content, comes as the $200m radio heavyweights continue to deliver less than stellar results in the Melbourne market.
Shock jock Sandilands didn’t miss a beat when the show first debuted down south in late April, revealing his co-host doesn’t like anal sex, along with a slew of X-rated admissions.
“I’m a fuel guzzling ex F-boy, coke sniffing ass---e, that’s what I am,’’ Sandilands boasted on the airwaves during the morning school commute.
Ever since, the much-hyped show has been met with push back from frustrated listeners who have seemingly jumped ship to Nova FM in support of Jase & Lauren.
The duo, along with newsreader Clint Stanaway, were unceremoniously dumped by KIIS-FM to make way for Sandilands and Henderson.
But it was the Melbourne-based trio who won the latest ratings survey.
