On March 18th, here's the latest in entertainment and celebrity news. Australian radio star Kyle Sandelands has lost his job at K-I-S-F-M after the network ended his contract. The move came from Australian radio network following a heated on-air argument with his co-host, Jacqueo Henderson last month. Both hosts saw their deals cut short, with Jacqueo telling bosses she could no longer work with them. Sandelands, a 54-year-old broadcaster, with 25 years on-air, released a statement saying he does not accept the decision. He claims determination breaks his contract, which runs until 2034. His lawyers had warned the network it would be invalid, and now the matter heads to legal action. Social media lit up right after the news, splitting fans and critics. Supporters rallied behind Sandelands, predicting a quick comeback, and praising his top ratings over the years. He's cheered the axing, pointing to his past controversial comments as long overdue consequences. The blow-up left Jacqueo in tears, leading ARN to label Sandelands' behavior, serious

misconduct. He apologized to her that night and offered to return to work with her or others, but the network refused. ARN had suspended him for 14 days before pulling the plug. For now, Philin hosts Mike Etheridge, keeps the breakfast show going with the rest of the team. Sandelands insists he delivered huge revenue and number one spots. Questioning why ARN would risk a lawsuit over honoring the deal. Listeners await what comes next from the courts. This episode is brought to you by our sponsor. See the episode description.
