Beau Ryan’s bold prediction about Kyle Sandilands’ future

Beau Ryan has revealed what he thinks will happen to Kyle Sandilands, as the axed KIIS FM star fights for his radio future.

Kyle is currently locked in a legal battle with ARN, the company that owns KIIS FM, after they ripped up his $100 million contract in March following an explosive on air fight with Jackie O.

Kyle is pushing to either have his contract paid out, or be allowed back on air at KIIS FM.

There’s been speculation this could potentially be the end of Kyle’s radio career, but his good mate Beau isn’t so sure.

“I know that he will be back because he is hungry to be back,” the Triple M Sydney breakfast host told news.com.au.

“I don’t think we will see him working at ARN … I think the damage has been done. They don’t want to pay him. He wants what’s owed. But I think if it was up to him, I think he’ll be somewhere else. Where? That is a good question.”

Beau revealed that he caught up with Kyle a few weeks ago backstage at Australian Idol, and could tell the ex-KIIS FM host was struggling with not being allowed on air.

“He misses it,” Beau said. “You can see it in his body language, you can see it when he’s been papped or filmed any interviews he’s done outside of court.”

The Triple M host added that it must have been a “shock” for Kyle to lose his job so suddenly.

“Imagine doing 20 plus years and it’s taken from you, and there was no weaning off,” he said. “Jackie was gone for a couple of weeks and then he’s gone. That’s hard.

“He wants to get back on air and have his listeners and family, his production (team) and everyone. He wants his life back.

“He will be back, but he misses it so much, I can see it in him,” Beau told news.com.au.

The ex-NRL star isn’t as convinced that Jackie O, who is also taking legal action against ARN, is as desperate for a return to the airwaves as her former partner.

“She can work wherever she wants in the country,” he said. “She’s one of the most brilliant people to ever work on radio. But I just feel like Kyle wants it more.”

Borrowing Kyle’s ideas

With The Kyle and Jackie O Show having come to a sudden end, thousands of their loyal listeners are now looking for a new breakfast show to tune into each morning.

“Our audience has changed and we can see it,” Beau told news.com.au. “(We have) noticed people calling up from all over the city, coming from different shows.”

Triple M’s Beau, Cat and Woodsy even stole one of Kyle and Jackie O’s longest running segments, the birthday wheel, in order to make new listeners feel welcome.

“He (Kyle) said someone came up to him and said, ‘mate, Triple M are doing your segments.’ He goes, ‘I love it!’ He’s got no choice really,” Beau laughed.

The larrikin said he’s confident they can convert some of Kyle and Jackie O’s longtime listeners into Triple M fans.

“We need them to sample us, and once they do, we’re confident they’ll stay,” he said.

You can hear Beau, Cat & Woodsy on Sydney’s 104.9 Triple M Sydney from 5.30am to 9.00am weekdays
