Georgie Tunny Steps into Radio Spotlight

Georgie Tunny, a recognizable personality from Channel Ten's programs, has been enlisted by KIIS FM to temporarily fill the breakfast radio slot. She is scheduled to co-host the show with Mike Etheridge and Brooklyn Ross for a single week, starting on Monday. This temporary role comes as the station seeks to address the vacancy left by former hosts Kyle Sandilands and Jackie 'O' Henderson.

Sources within the industry are speculating that Tunny's appearance could be an audition for a more permanent role. It is suggested that KIIS FM's parent company, ARN, is planning to establish a permanent breakfast team for its Sydney and Melbourne markets. This potential move aligns with Tunny's existing association with ARN, as she currently co-hosts the Two Good Sports podcast.

This radio engagement follows Tunny's recent appointment as the new host for Channel Ten's weekend news bulletin, a role she began in December. Prior to this, she was a regular co-host on Channel Ten's panel show, The Project, which concluded its 16-year run in 2025. The termination of The Project was attributed to declining viewership, a subject Tunny reflected on with a mix of gratitude for the audience support and disappointment over the show's end.
