Kyle Sandilands reveals how much his record-breaking contract is REALLY worth – and how it compares to their radio rivals

As a lifestyle expert with a background in media and finance, I find myself both awestruck and inspired by Kyle Sandilands‘ unapologetic financial transparency. His journey from homelessness to earning an estimated $15 million annually is nothing short of remarkable. It serves as a testament to the power of resilience, determination, and the pursuit of one’s passion.


Kyle Sandilands has made a shocking confession about his eye-watering radio earnings.

On this past Friday morning, I found myself on the Kyle & Jackie O show, where I let slip a little secret about my income. Contrary to reports stating a yearly earning of $10 million, I’m actually taking home more than that amount. As a lifestyle expert, I always advocate for financial transparency and responsible spending, but sometimes life takes an unexpected turn!

Oh my goodness, you wouldn’t believe it! The initial buzz about Kyle and Jackie ‘O’ Henderson’s new deal hinted at a whopping $200 million over the next decade, but here’s the kicker – Kyle himself revealed that their contract is actually worth a staggering $300 million! That means each of them will be pocketing around $15 million annually until 2034. I can hardly contain my excitement for these radio legends!

He expressed that he couldn’t bear the deception, stating that the true figure was significantly higher than what had been reported. In reality, their 10-year contract amounted to an additional $50 million per year.

Kyle openly discussed his wage negotiations, directly challenging his radio competitors by stating, “We earn that because of our skills in radio.”

Simultaneously, the pair on the radio disclosed the astonishing remuneration they received for their initial jobs within the industry.

They talked about the earnings of radio announcers, and during their conversation, they realized that they both earned very little in their initial positions.

Kyle remembered that he accepted a position with a lower wage than the assistance he used to get when he was homeless.

Initially, when I began working in Townsville, I had to accept a decrease in my homeless allowance as income. This meant that the government was providing me with a homeless allowance. I chose to take a pay cut for a position earning approximately $11,000 per year, as it presented an opportunity to gain a foothold in my new job. The shock jock made this statement.

In her interview, co-host Jackie, aged 49, disclosed that she was also offered a relatively small wage when she initially agreed to her first radio contract.

‘I took it for 10 grand. It was because you loved the job,’ said Jackie.

During our conversation about their beginnings, Kyle shared the reasons behind their decision to accept relatively low wages when they first entered the workforce alongside their co-host.

Kyle stated, “Your choices are restricted since there aren’t many others besides myself and Jackie. You either make a career out of talking nonsense or rely on government aid.”

Jackie agreed, but suggested she might have pursued another profession.

‘Oh no, I could have been a prostitute!’ Jackie joked.

‘Probably, you’re right,’ said Kyle, ‘Low end, $300.’

In November 2023, the Sydney-based radio team sealed an unprecedented $200 million agreement, a 10-year contract, right on the airwaves. This means they’ll continue gracing our radios until 2034.

In addition to the 10-year radio agreement, there’s a special provision in the contract that allows them to air the program from any location on Earth.

Kyle frequently contributes to the KIIS FM program based in Los Angeles and various other locations, henceforth, his latest agreement ensures the freedom to carry on airing from any location of his preference.

To excite fans of the show, Sandilands announced that the recently signed 10-year agreement is a record-breaking long-term radio contract in Australian history.

Hey there! As ardent admirers of the unconventional, let me tell you, Jackie and I are far from done serving up our politically-incorrect humor. Whether it’s loved or scorned, we’re here to stay, spreading our brand of mischief for as long as the fun lasts!

He mentioned, ‘We are grateful to our audience, staff, clients, and even senior leadership. I’d like to acknowledge their exceptional work as they truly pulled off something remarkable.’

The pair is poised to conquer markets beyond their Sydney fanbase and make their debut expansion into Melbourne.
