What’s New March 18, 2026

The last couple of weeks have felt like like a radio version of MAFS. On steroids.
Somehow, we’ve managed to pack a decade’s worth of industry drama into the first three months of 2026. Who’d have thought the hype surrounding the first metro radio survey of the year could – or would – be eclipsed by a shadow in the shape of Kyle Sandilands?
Tomorrow (Thursday March 19), GfK Radio 360 Survey 1 2026 lands at 9:30am.
It’s the first survey for Christian O’Connell since the show was networked into Sydney on ARN’s Gold Network.
It will be the first book for Jonesy & Amanda’s new Gold Network Drive show.
Elsewhere, Sydney’s 2DayFM will be hoping for a change in its flagging fortunes, as its Breakfast team of Nath Roye and Emma Chow await their first full survey result as a duo, following the departure of Jimmy Smith.
There’ll also still be plenty of keen media interest in the Melbourne numbers for the now-defunct Kyle & Jackie O Show.
From cume and share breakdowns to post-survey interviews with network CDs, Radio Today will have the full wash up from 9.30am tomorrow.
