Triple M Radio Faces Ratings Struggles as One Show Loses Listeners

Triple M suffered a brutal blow in the third radio ratings survey of 2025.

The survey showed that Beau Ryan, Aaron ‘Woodsy’ Woods and Cat Lynch’s Sydney breakfast show continues to lose listeners.

The trio, who lost 1.5 per cent of the market share in survey two, dropped another 1.5 in the latest survey, bringing them down to a 4.4 market share from a previous 5.9.

It was one of many hits Triple M took this week, as the station suffered a decline across all Sydney timeslots.  

Meanwhile, sister station 2DAY gained 0.5 per cent of the breakfast market share, leaving new hosts Jimmy Smith, Emma Chow and Nath Roye chuffed.

The station finished at 4.5 overall – up by 0.2 – as it gains ground on Triple M’s overall 4.9 market share.

Elsewhere, KIIS FM took a short slide in the Sydney ratings as the station has spent several months trying to improve The Kyle & Jackie O Show’s standing in Melbourne.

The home of shock jocks Kyle Sandilands and Jackie ‘O’ Henderson dropped 0.2 per cent of the market share.

However, KIIS FM still finished third in Sydney with a 9.3 overall, not a feat to balk at, with 2GB sitting at 13.6 (up by 0.8) and Smooth sitting at 12.4 (up by 0.6). 

And the wildly popular Kyle & Jackie O Show was again number one in FM breakfast in Sydney, with a market share of 12.5 (up by 0.2).

Though their performance in Melbourne has slightly dipped again and they dropped 0.7 to a 5.1 market share following the gains they made last survey. 

Meanwhile, ABC Sydney continued to slide with all four of its programs throughout the day losing listeners, dropping to a 6.2 share.

Craig Reucassel also slipped at breakfast to 8.2, Hamish Macdonald mornings dropped to 5.5, James Valentine in afternoons down to 4.7, and Chris Bath now at 5.3.

Evenings host Renee Krosch was the only star who saw an increase in market share, lifting by 2.4 to 8.4.

2GB took full advantage of ABC’s Sydney losses, with breakfast host Ben Fordham shooting up 1.1 to 16.7. 

Mornings host Mark Levy held onto his 15.5 share, afternoon host Malcolm McLaren lifted to 10.6, and Clinton Maynard finished on 8.6 (up by 0.4).

Nevertheless, ABC shot up in Melbourne after the station had a fire lit under them following a record-low result last survey. 

With an overall 6.2 share (up by 1.9), breakfast duo Bob Murphy and Sharnelle Vella gained an impressive 2.0 per cent.

It lifted the pair to a 7.6 per cent share, toppling The Kyle & Jackie O Show in the breakfast slot by 2.5.
