1. Oh. Not even Kyle Sandilands tuned in watch his new show, Trial By Kyle.
On Thursday night, the first episode of Trial By Kyle went to air on Channel 10, attracting a metropolitan audience of 363,000 – not the best result.
The show sees radio host Kyle Sandilands hear cases (well, petty complaints) from everyday Australians and then deliver his completely unqualified verdict. Winner of The Bachelor and qualified lawyer Anna Heinrich is on-hand during the show to offer her legal advice and some occasional side-eye in Kyle’s direction.
Sound appealing? Well even Kyle Sandilands is conflicted over whether he’s actually wanting to watch his own television show.
In a bizarre move, Kyle wrote on Twitter on Thursday: “I’ll be watching @LoveIslandAU tonight, but you guys feel free to watch
@TrialByKyleAU 8:30pm on @Channel10AU.”

Yeezy now all about Jeezy.
Do you reckon it's a genuine conversion or it's an ego-fuelled attempt to start his own cult?
A little of both, maybe? Genuine belief, a little obsession and egomania mixed in, smells like a cult in the making to me.
My suspicion is that he's in a manic phase of his bipolar disorder (extreme religious thoughts not being an uncommon manifestation), which is being exploited for kash and klicks by those around him, rather than getting him the help he needs.
I'm reluctant to play armchair psychiatrist, but I wouldn't be at all surprised.
