ARN’s search for a new breakfast show to replace Kyle and Jackie O continues. Irene shares her pick for the big gig and Craig thinks there's one podcast that deserves to be on their radar.
This week we introduce you to Tayla and Marcelo Montoya—a content partnership that is building momentum as one of the funniest, most dynamic and authentic combinations in the country. We want your feedback as to whether this husband and wife team could be the shake up that Sydney breakfast needs.
Also this week we have the real reason behind Kris Fade saying no to his dream job on Kiis.
Plus, what every breakfast team can learn from Jase Hawkins' remarkable approach to co-hosting - just when you thought good guys always finish last, someone like Jase comes along and proves otherwise.

One question is beginning to dominate Jackie Henderson's legal battle with ARN.
Who actually made the decision to sack her?
According to court documents, Jackie's legal team says they still don't know who the decision-makers were after she told the company she could no longer work with Kyle Sandilands.
Why does that matter? Could identifying the people behind the decision become one of the most important issues in the entire case?
Michael Byrnes joins us to explain why this seemingly simple question could have significant legal consequences, what the court-ordered independent medical examination means, why Jackie is determined to keep the October hearing dates, and what signals we should be watching for if settlement discussions are happening behind closed doors.

One podcast interview has triggered one of the biggest media stories of the year.
Channel 9 and Karl Stefanovic have reportedly parted ways following Karl's interview with UK activist Tommy Robinson. But was this really about one podcast... or was it the moment an already changing relationship finally reached its conclusion?
Employment lawyer Michael Byrnes joins us to unpack the legal, commercial and reputational questions behind the decision.
We discuss whether Australia's biggest television personalities can ever separate their personal brands from their employers, why advertisers often shape these decisions, and whether media companies are becoming increasingly vulnerable to organised pressure campaigns.
We also examine what Karl's reported departure could mean for his new partnership with Eddie McGuire and ARN, and why this story may have implications well beyond one presenter.

After months of court filings, subpoenas, hearings and speculation, the biggest legal story in Australian radio has taken a dramatic turn: Kyle Sandilands and ARN have settled.
A few weeks ago, workplace relations lawyer Michael Byrnes told us that most disputes like this end in settlement. This week, he joins us to explain why he was right.
What does a settlement like this actually look like behind closed doors? Why is every word in the agreement negotiated so carefully? What would ARN have been demanding? What would Kyle have been fighting for? And will we ever know the true financial cost of ending one of radio's biggest disputes.
Michael Byrnes takes us inside the settlement process, the strategy, the leverage points and what could happen next in one of the most closely watched media disputes in Australia.
