2DAY FM MARATHON - 51 HOURS ONAIR

Thursday 3pm - 6pm (Kyle leaves the building!)

It’s been another jam-packed, all-action three hours on The Longest Lasting Kyle & Jackie O Show, with the likes of Lisa McCune, Shane Bourne, Toni Pearen, Will Travel and David, Jo and Tracie from The Biggest Loser all coming in to say hi and wish the gang well!

We’re not sure whether it was too many showbiz guests, lack or sleep or a few too many coffees, but a check on Kyle & Jackie’s health from the 2Day FM doc saw Kyle sent home to rest! Yes, very high blood pressure meant Kyle was in danger of falling sick and the doc ordered him off-air immediately. Never one to shy away quietly, Kyle called from the car to say how sad he was to be sent home and that if his night-time check with the doc is all good, he’ll be back in to do the final three hours tomorrow!

Thursday 12pm - 3pm

Super spunk Jake Wall skated on in to see Kyle & Jackie O this afternoon, giving them an update on how he’s going in ‘Dancing on Ice’. Adding yet more star power to this marathon show, Simone Warne called the studio to wish the team luck in their last 18 hours and Nine’s Today Show entertainment supremo, Richard Wilkins, swung in to say hi to Kyle and Jackie.

Thursday 9am - 12pm

The Longest Lasting Kyle & Jackie O Show is now well into its 32nd hour and there’s no sign that the duo are calming it down. There’s also no chance of them going hungry, as celebrity chef Geoff Jansz came into the 2Day FM studios earlier to cook up some gourmet omelettes… just what the guys needed after a long night on-air!

Once the cook-up was cleared away, it was time for the 'beautification of Kyle’ who brought in a team to give him a facial steam, massage and a quick haircut – all in the live studio so the show could go on.

Refreshed and razor sharp, Kyle & Jackie were joined by Nine News’ Mark Ferguson who provided Geoff with some much needed words of compassion, newsreader to newsreader! Next up was Molly Meldrum who called in from his globetrotting adventures to wish the team luck for their last 19 hours.

As this is being written, platters of sandwiches, pastries and coffees are again being taken into the studio for Kyle, Jackie O and their guests.




Thursday 6am - 9am

Kyle & Jackie O reached the 24 hour mark in high spirits! In their ‘Should I Stay or Should I Go’ segment, emotions ran high when a couple called in to discuss their relationship problems live on-air. With one caller in tears, Jackie cracked and began sobbing too. A true pro, she quickly recovered with the help of a strong coffee and some stern words from Kyle!

There was no let up for Geoff, as he was whisked off to Centro Bankstown to read the morning news from a ‘dunking machine’. One mistake later and Geoff is up to his waist in freezing cold water, before climbing out and walking off. Labrat and the Black Thunders were last seen searching for Geoff who went AWOL!

Thursday 3am - 6am

Signs of delirium set in! Poor Geoff began to feel the strain and his bulletins throughout the night rapidly deteriorated. Supposedly ever-ready to read the news whenever Kyle & Jackie O say so, he was caught out on a trip down to the street studio. Duped by 2Day FM’s Labrat into ‘checking out what’s going on downstairs’, Geoff’s mic suddenly went live and he was forced to read the news from memory… managing only a couple of stories!

2Day FM’s top brass were also in for some surprises after 3am, with surprise wake-up calls from the team. Furiously dialling home and mobile phone numbers, the team manage to rouse the Sales Director and the Group Programming Director from their slumber. Despite their persistence, they failed to wake Austereo’s Operations Director!

Thursday 12:01am - 3am

Ten’s Deborah Knight popped in to the studio just after midnight, bringing Kyle & Jackie O a big bag of much welcomed chocolate, Coca Cola and chips!
Big Brother’s Michael impressed Kyle & Jackie O with his radio presenting skills, taking to the airwaves between midnight and 1am. Tired of not being able to find a date, Michael used his time on-air to appeal to women across to call for date, and his luck was in! A sassy, young woman called Samantha called in and the pair are now set to go out on a date. Watch this space!!
Cosmo’s resident beauty expert, Zoë Foster, also joined the team on-air for a phone-in, and the team discovered that Sydney’s men are proudly ‘metrosexual’. Shocked by how many men called the studio, questions ranged from back-waxing to ways to cure dry, flaky T-zones!

Wednesday 9pm - 12am

Hmmm, it's gone gone 9.30 and things are getting saucy! Having read today’s bulletins from a random office in Sydney and whilst naked above the Great Western Highway, Kyle & Jackie’s newsreader Geoff just got an unexpected surprise whilst enjoying a well deserved shower!

Lathering up in 2Day FM’s executive bathroom after a cold day (in the nude!), Jackie managed to pick the door lock, bursting in with a microphone. Like a rabbit caught in the headlights, Geoff – naked again (!) – dropped into a foetal position to protect what modesty he has left! Not convinced that what Jackie was describing could be true, Kyle raced from the studio to join the pair in the bathroom. Needless to say, he was equally shocked to Geoff in all his glory.Back in studio, Big Brother evictee Michael has joined Kyle & Jackie and is set to take to the airwaves with them at midnight in his first ever attempt at co-hosting a radio show. Tune-in and judge him for yourself….

Wednesday, 6pm-9pm

Well, Sarah McLeod rocked the studio, and hot on her heels followed Ron Wilson, who told Kyle & Jackie a saucy tale of reading the news wearing a suit on top and just underpants below!
For dinner, Kyle ate a big steak with veg and mash, while Jackie munched stir-fried vegetables (with lots of chilli!). The team outside the studio ate everything from stir fried beef to mexican chicken salad!

So it’s back to the old school this evening with Kyle & Jackie O once again hosting the Hot 30 Countdown. It’s been some years since they presented this show, but they’re just as hot now as they were back in the day! Mad callers, the day’s hottest music and great prizes make this one show not to be forgotten.

Still to come this evening is former Big Brother housemate Michael who will be trying his hand at radio hosting tonight, co-hosting the midnight hour with Kyle & Jackie O. Tune-in and see how he goes…

Wednesday, 3pm-6pm

The Longest Lasting Kyle & Jackie O Show is now 12 hours in…with just 39 left to go! It’s been a busy day for Kyle and Jackie and they’re in high spirits, lifted no doubt by a visit from a rather lively former Big Brother housemate, Perry.

There’s no time for tiredness, as singer Sarah McLeod has just arrived at the 2Day FM studios to perform live on the show with her band. Meanwhile, out on the Great Western Highway at Girraween newsreader Geoff Field is reading his bulletins from a cherry picker, completely naked, with just a very small 2Day FM sandwich board to protect his modesty!
Keeping the team company tonight will be Ron Wilson, Big Brother’s Michael and Deborah Knight, who will come into the studios after her late night.

Wednesday, 12pm -3pm

As the show heads towards its ninth hour on-air, Kyle & Jackie are still knocking back the coffee (Kyle is claming 17 so far!!) and tucking into the endless stream of food that keeps arriving at the studio. It’s not everyday that sandwiches, sushi, coffee and cakes are all on tap.The day so far has been a veritable feast of showbiz names, with Daniel McPherson and Kate Ritchie joining the show… and it’s only 3 o’clock! Needless to say, the celebs will continue flooding through the doors here at 2Day FM around the clock as Kyle and Jackie head towards their 51st (and final!) hour.In the past three hours, Jackie’s Mum called the studio to tell the pair that she’d heard about what they were up to (Jackie had kept it a secret… she knew her Mum would worry too much!) and to tell Jackie how stupid she thought she was for agreeing to such a marathon time on-air!

Wednesday, 9am-12pm

As Kyle & Jackie O near the six hour mark, they’ve already drunk nearly 20 coffees between them, not to mention the plate of pastries which disappeared into the studio and reappeared shortly afterwards, empty!
Newsreader Geoff admitted live on-air that he’s already sunk a coffee or two followed by a No Doze chaser! He’ll need all the energy he can get when he finds out what’s in store for him over the coming days…

Mel and Kochie from Sunrise came in for a chat with Kyle & Jackie just after 10am, and Dan McPherson called the studio to wish the guys luck. The studios are a hive of activity, with guests hanging out in the green room and platter of food and drink arriving by the minute!

Wednesday, 6-9amIt's here... The 51 hour Longest Lasting Kyle & Jackie O Show has started!

After some last minute prep including massages for Kyle and fake tan for Jackie, the duo cranked up the studio at 6am and got off to a flying start! Partnering with Energizer Lithium, the show is set to be like nothing heard on Sydney radio before. An all-star line-up, saucy stunts and mega prizes around the clock guarantee this is one show not to be missed!
In the first three hours the show has already featured international psychic medium John Edward who 'crossed-over' for one lucky listener, heard the low down on what really goes on behind the scenes at the airport from a customs officer, and announced that newsreader Geoff is going to be reading news bulletins from offices across Sydney today!
