Show notes
For decades Kyle Sandilands has been the undisputed king of Australian radio.
He is loud, completely outrageous and love him or loathe him, he has built a media empire entirely on his own terms.
But behind the headlines grabbing shock- jock persona is a massive heart, sharp business mind and more recently, a dedicated family man, navigating his own profound second act.
This week, he's stepped away from his own microphone and sat down at mine.
And a warning, there is some coarse language in this episode.
It is not for the faint of heart.
Enjoy!

For decades, 'Pup' lived his life under the ultimate public microscope and so now, as an older dog, he truly knows what it means to build a second act on your own terms.
Today he opens up about navigating public scrutiny, Warnie, life after the pitch, love, family and what really happened in Noosa.
