The most hated man in Australia.
And the most popular radio host in the country.
Love him or hate him, there is only one Kyle Sandilands.
This is the book Kyle's fans have been waiting for, straight from the man himself. From his difficult childhood in Brisbane, through to his steely determination to succeed in radio and the successes and disasters he's experienced along the way, Kyle tells his full life story with disarming honesty.
The King of Controversy also spills the beans on the various on-air "incidents" that he has become notorious for – taking the blame when it's deserved (which is often) and giving us the sometimes surprising real stories behind the multitudinous "Vile Kyle" headlines.
Along the way Kyle shoots straight from the saddle on everything from celebrity gossip and his famous co-host Jackie O, to his failed marriage to pop star Tamara Jaber and allegations of misogyny, as well as giving us an insider's view into the cut-throat breakfast radio.
Funny, frank and very revealing, Kyle's memoirs give us a very different view of one of Australia's best-known and most controversial media figures.

Comments about Scandalands:
I finished the book in two days!
The book gives you a great insight into the life of Kyle. I would highly reccomend reading this book ad it shows that like normal people Kyle had a very troubled childhood being young i can relate to the book. Its amazing to see how well Kyle has turned his life around and see what he has made for himself today!
Once you pick this book up it will be hard to put down!!!

Comments about Scandalands:
I wanted to know what was behind those piercing eyes, what was going through the mind of that judge on the TV show.
I have to say I am disapointed with this man. He was thoroughly obnoxious and I am guesing he still is. His outbursts of rage and anger were unabated. What I found disappointing is his inability to learn from his actions.
His rage followed the same patterns again and again and again.
Did I see a little of me in him?
Yes.
Have I learn't from my life's lessons?
Yes, eventually.
Will Kyle learn to control his emotions and modify his behaviour?
Who Knows. I think he will find it difficult but there is still time. I do hope he can.
He instills a sense of insecurity and deep down I feel the sense of a lost boy who needs a saviour.
His story is informative to know what goes on behind the scenes in the world of radio.
