ABC presenter Sammy J reignites feud with radio rival Kyle Sandilands in savage war of words

Outgoing ABC presenter Sammy J has reignited his ongoing feud with radio rival Kyle Sandilands.

The comedian, 41, fired the latest attack in the unlikely war of words against his followers on X – formerly known as Twitter – on Tuesday.

The drama started when Sammy took to the social media platform to brag about his ABC show beating The Kyle and Jackie O Show in the radio ratings in Melbourne.

Not one to attack lying down, Kyle then hit back on his Kyle & Jackie O radio show, claiming no one had ever heard of the ABC star.

Now Sammy J – real name Samuel Jonathan McMillan – has provoked the radio star again as he boldly claimed he will always have better ratings than Kyle.

“I’m getting so many calls from the media that I thought it would be best to get this out – I will have no further comment,” he began his statement.

“To describe this as a ‘feud’ is incorrect and insulting to both myself and Mr. Sandilands. He and I both agree on the facts.

“I will have better ratings than him for all eternity. He can’t stop thinking about me.’

Sammy’s rant didn’t stop them, with the presenter then brutally claiming that Kyle couldn’t put on a show without the help of his co-host Jackie ‘O’ Henderson.

“He needs music and ads, plus multiple co-hosts to support him, but I can host a radio show all by myself because I’m a big boy,” he continued.

‘I trust this will resolve the matter. I wish Mr. Sandilands the best and hope his 4am morning commute becomes easier as time goes on.”

When contacted by Ny Breaking Australia, Kyle’s representatives declined to comment.

Last week, Kyle passionately hit back at Sammy’s first swipe as he branded the ABC star a ‘misguided flogger’.

Sammy, who announced he was leaving ABC Radio Melbourne last week, took to X to mock Kyle after his show beat The Kyle and Jackie O Show in the Melbourne radio ratings.

The drama started when Sammy took to the social media platform to brag about his ABC show beating The Kyle and Jackie O Show in the radio ratings in Melbourne, prompting Kyle to hit back.

“I beat Kyle again today in my final ratings,” he wrote.

“So I’ll live rent-free in his head forever. I am his white whale; his tormentor; the last face he sees at night and the first face he sees every morning.

“When he walks on the beach at night, the wind whispers ‘Sammy J,’” he joked.

Buy Kyle took serious offense to Sammy’s comments, claiming he had ‘never heard’ of his radio ‘rival’.

“There’s a guy at the ABC in Melbourne who quit, but he said funny things like, ‘I beat Kyle Sandilands’ and, ‘I’m the first thing on his mind,’” Kyle said on Monday.

‘I’ve never heard of him and he thinks he’s on my mind. What a misguided flogging. I don’t know who you are, dog.’

Angrily he continued: ‘[Sammy wrote] When he [Kyle] When he walks on the beach, he can’t think about me. I said, ‘Bro, no one knows who you are.’

Upon reading Sammy’s direct quote, Kyle’s co-host Jackie argued that the comedian was just joking, but Kyle was having none of it.

In his latest swipe, Sammy J cheekily claimed Kyle can’t hold a show without the help of his co-host Jackie ‘O’ Henderson as he reignited their feud.

“Jackie, he’s from the ABC. They’re not joking,” he hit back.

Kyle’s manager and Kyle and Jackie O Show director Bruno Bouchet also chimed in and agreed with Kyle’s assessment of the sled.

“You’re one hundred percent right,” Bruno insisted.

“The ABC doesn’t joke, that’s against their charter, so you have to assume it’s said very sternly and seriously.”

Kyle congratulated Sammy before delivering his own not-so-subtle criticism of his rival and the ABC.

“Anyway, good job to him for winning, not that anyone cares,” Kyle said.

“I don’t even know why taxpayers are forced to pay for a radio program without commercials to be included in a survey. What do you have to pay for that?’
