An entertainment industry insider believes that could 'go full MAGA' in his new show. 

Sandilands shocked his supporters on Wednesday by announcing that he'll soon be to the air. 

And media commentator Andrew Mercado thinks that the shock jock could take his material in a political direction. 

'Kyle might not get access to all the A-list celebrities anymore, so don't be surprised if he goes full MAGA to hook in an American audience to keep those dollars flowing,' Mercado told Yahoo on Thursday. 

Mercado believes it's more likely that Sandilands will host a podcast, rather than return to radio.  

'There is money in this space if you want to court a right-wing audience,' he said.

Sandilands has described his politics as 'right of centre' and previously revealed he has voted for the Liberal Party. 

He additionally called Trump's 2024 election victory over Kamala Harris as a 'win for everyone'.

The KIIS FM star, who is locked in a legal battle with his former network, ARN, after the cancellation of The Kyle and Jackie O show in February, delivered the news of his new show via the Kyle Sandilands Fans page on Instagram, late on Wednesday night. 

'Let me tell you a little secret... shhhh, don't tell anyone,' the 54-year-old began.

'I'm working on a new project and all will be revealed soon. I'm coming back guys, bigger than ever!'

Sandilands did not reveal what the project will be; however, he was shown seated in what appeared to be a recording studio, with a sign in the background reading, 'Kyle Sandilands Live.'

The shock jock then addressed his long-time manager, Bruno Bouchet, who he thanked for standing by him despite 'not being paid'. 

'That's Bruno. He's paid to say that, well actually he's not paid at the moment!' Sandilands said, after Bruno told Kyle he was looking well.

It comes after reports that the radio star is open to a settlement with ARN as court dates loom for both him and former co-host Jackie 'O' Henderson (right) 

A source told news.com.au that Sandilands is eager to avoid a drawn-out trial and would consider a 'reasonable' offer from his former employer.   

'If there was a reasonable figure that made him feel like he didn't get totally f***ed over… yeah,' the source said.

'He is a righteous guy, and he could just go, 'Let's take this to the end', but no one loves the idea of court.'
