My name's Thing from the Kyle and Jackie O team. I've got a bunch of the producers in to answer your questions here while Kyle and Jackie O are on break. Hi.
Hello.
Got Eliza as well. Fiddlesticks. Hello. And intern Pete. Good morning, Australia or wherever you're listening.
God, you're just weird.
It's great. I really don't like the tone of this.

Chapter 2: What insights do producers share about working on the Kyle & Jackie O Show?
Morning, Peter. So these questions have been submitted on our Kyle and Jackie O Instagram, and these are things that people want to know about us as producers.
Yeah, how the show works, how it all works behind the scenes, which it's both less insane and more insane than I think people realise.
Yeah, and there's quite a few, so let's get through them.
Yeah, first one, what are Kyle and Jackie O's working hours?
Kyle and Jackie O specifically, not us.
I feel like they're... You'd see Kyle come in around like quarter past five and then they're probably here until 10. Or they definitely are here until at least 10.
Yeah, I'd say 5.30 till 10.
I'd say that too. So usually Kyle gets in first and he just has a chin wag with the team.
Yeah, he's in first always for sure.

Chapter 3: What are Kyle and Jackie O's typical working hours?
Oh, God. All right. Well, how do we answer? All the producers, I'd say, have different hours, slightly, depending on workload. So our actual working hours are 5 a.m. to 1 p.m., but I don't know anyone who actually does those hours. No. So I start at 5 a.m. I'm known to be late. But then I'm working till, I don't know, all hours of the night.
Maybe a better way of describing it, yeah, is that we're in the office five till one, roughly. But we're also kind of working nonstop. Across the day. The group chats are going nonstop. The links are going nonstop. We might have to stop and write something or cut some audio at any given moment. Yeah, that's fair.
And Peter loves going on a work trip.
Yeah, love a work trip. So then those hours sort of extend out from there. Plus, you know, people have lunch breaks, gym classes.
Oh, Peter's very known. That rolls directly into the next question, Peter. Peter's very known to make a point of his allocated lunch break.
Oh, no, I just think just in regards to Australian law and stuff like that, we're entitled to a lunch break, right?
We see Peter walking off down the hill to where we know his gym is in his exercise clothes, and we're like, where's Peter? We've got a meeting now. And he's like, oh, just an allocated lunch break that no one else takes, mind you.
And that's your choices, right?
Yeah. The next question kind of rolls off the bat about why are you always eating?

Chapter 4: How do producers manage their working hours and workload?
It's crazy.
It's crazy. I don't know how you get away with it, and it's going to continue.
Thank you so much. Crow out and out. I'm going to throw to you for this next question. What do Cooper and Brooklyn actually do?
Brooklyn does a lot. I'm going to defend him straight off the bat. Brooklyn gets in earlier than all of us, actually, speaking of working hours. He's here from like 4 a.m. preparing the news for the show in the ad breaks where everyone else is kind of dancing around or having a laugh or Kyle and Jackie O are out having a cigarette or whatever.
He's sitting in his booth preparing the next news break. So he's also juggling like a whole lot during the show. Cooper. Unclear. Cooper's got his pen and paper. So Cooper's our sports reporter, right? We know that. He doesn't get in at 4 a.m. and start prepping.
It's a generous title.
As Brooklyn does. He writes, he hand writes his sports news on a ripped in half piece of A4 paper. I think he rips the show log in half that I present in front of him. So he's quite often not knowing where we're at in the show because he's ripped it in half to write his sport on it. And that's what he does. He's later than Jackie most days.
Yeah. Often doesn't show up over Monday.
Yes, famously doesn't turn up on Mondays.

Chapter 5: Why do producers often eat during the show?
Look, I've got one voice. I've got one character and that's all I've got. So you're not going to hear me on many things. But yeah, the odd one here and there may be me.
Okay, I'm going to bring in another team member for this next question. Digital Dan, come to the diary room. Digital Dan.
I have a feeling I know what this will be about. He makes his way very slowly.
Yeah, don't rush.
Do you reckon he... Yeah.
Eliza got up.
Eliza got up and started running out.
Hey, mate, how are you? No, I buzzed out. Welcome to the program.
Have a seat.

Chapter 6: What roles do Cooper and Brooklyn play in the show?
Did you go to radio school?
No, I never went to radio school. I just volunteered for years.
Radio school? No, and I didn't finish my uni degree either. Oh, drop out. Continue, Peter.
Yes, in Warrnambool, Victoria. Left there after six weeks, aka fired, redundant, whatever you want to call it. Lied my way into a breakfast radio show. Did the regional towns for a few years, about 13 years ago. Our new big boss here at the radio station was the one who actually told me, he goes, love your announcing. I think you're more of a producer, though. And that's when I got into producing.
I produced Hot 30 Countdown.
worked at triple m for a while and then this was the dream job to always get here working to be an intern so yeah so you went from breakfast announcer yeah absolutely oh and by the way i did afters as well i did a 12 month content director course so you've done you've done two radio oh no i'm actually like you're overqualified like db dave cameron all these big bosses still don't know when the right moment to chime in on yeah not at all you think you'd
You would have way more skills for that amount of study.
I just feel like I get to be myself on the Kyle and Jackie O show. That's why it's the dream job, right?
How many years have you actually worked for Kyle and Jackie O?
