Radio Ratings: Alan’s Back In Business (And So Is Richard Glover)

Welcome to the second GfK Metro Radio Survey for 2020, and the last one for potentially a while…

As recently stated by Commercial Radio Australia, surveys 3, 4 and 5 will be put on hold due to government restrictions related to COVID-19. So, you best enjoy this ratings story because who knows when you’ll get another.

While numbers may differ due to the coronavirus impact, everyone is in the same boat and affected the same way. So, where does the radio industry currently stand?

Alan Jones is still king of Sydney radio with 2GB the number one breakfast spot (17.9 per cent, up 3.1 per cent), as 2GB remains in top spot overall (14.8 per cent, up 1.6 per cent). Meanwhile, ABC’s Richard Glover has moved into the number one drive spot (up 2.6 per cent to 11.7 per cent). On the FM band, KIIS 106.5’s Kyle & Jackie O rose from 0.3 to 10.2 per cent, while WSFM’s Jonesy & Amanda did 9.1 per cent, and Nova’s Fitzy & Wippa 7.7 per cent.

In Melbourne 3AW’s Ross and John are still number one in brekky (17.3 per cent, up 1.4 per cent), while 3AW reigns overall (13.9 per cent, up 0.6 per cent).On FM, GOLD’s Christian O’Connell is in the top spot for the second consecutive survey.
