It’s certainly the most detailed interview he’s done since “that incident” last November – perhaps the most in-depth ever. In his exclusive discussion with Peter Saxon, Kyle opens up about “that incident” and how he feels about the ACMA, “the red button” and the “haters” that stalk him – and much more.

 

Faces for Radio

The Faces for Radio section has always been a great source of networking for our subscribers – a great place to post your pic, bio and air-check. And it returns in a revamped format with more features and users. Go to My Account now to update or upload your profile.

Facebook Page

Associated with our changes we have launched a facebook page where we can all be friends. You can post news of your own announcements, successes and comments, births, deaths and marriages. It will supplement the information on Faces for Radio in a more social way.

Beefed up Search Engine
