Jonesy & Amanda sabotage KIIS on Melbourne Cup day.

HT&E Limited formerly APN News & Media has released its results for the six months ending 30 June 2017.

On a statutory basis, revenue for the company that owns ARN rose 75% to $225.7m compared with $129.1m in the prior corresponding period, earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) rose 28 per cent to $46.0m, and net profit after tax and before amortisation (NPATA) attributable to shareholders was up 108 per cent to $22.0m. 

Brendan ‘Jonesy’ Jones and Amanda Keller have renewed their breakfast show contracts for three more years at ARN’s WSFM.

Now in their 12^th year together on WSFM, Jonesy & Amanda are one of Sydney’s most successful and loved breakfast teams.

In recent years, Jonesy & Amanda have claimed the #1FM Breakfast crown multiple times in radio survey ratings, taken home the coveted industry award for Best On Air Team at the 2012 and 2014 ACRAs and are currently Sydney’s #2FM breakfast team.

In the latest episode of the podcast You’ve Gotta Start Somewhere, host Rachel Corbett has sat down with WSFM's Brendan Jones.

Jonesy, as he is affectionately known chats about the move that changed his career, why you can never trust Jules Lund on a red carpet and why he thinks the hours are the best thing about his job.

He has also spoken about why he wouldn't work with anyone else but Amanda Keller.

This morning WSFM's Jonesy & Amanda caught up with John Laws after he hit back at 2Day FM's Em Rusciano who reacted on-air to Laws' comments about his female staff.
 
Amanda asked John about his recent comments about the dress code he enforces in the workplace, in which he asks that his female staff wear dresses and the subsequent 'feud' with Em.
 

KIIS 1065, WS FM101.7 and The Edge have again partnered with the Sydney Royal Easter Show.

It's the competition that's got the nation talking and finally the women of Australia have declared Brendan 'Jonesy' Jones Australia's Hottest Radio Hunk.

Jonesy beat more than 40 radio announcers to the 'prestigious accolade'. After over 5000 votes were cast, funny-man and all-round nice guy Jonesy was surprised on air by his WS-FM co-host Amanda Keller and Take 5 Editor-in-chief, Paul Merrill.

Bryce Ruthven is leaving the Hitz 939 breakfast show Bryce & Trace.

After a successful period that included two ACRA nominations including best on air team in the country category, two Queensland Multimedia Award nominations plus a survey win in 2016 including Bundaberg's most listened to radio show, Bryce has taken up an offer to return home to Sydney with ARN to join WSFM as the panel operator and producer for Jonesy & Amanda.
