KIIS FM's Will & Woody have taken their national drive show to South Australia for a one-night-only at the iconic 2023 Adelaide Fringe Festival.

The radio duo enlisted the help of Rude Jude, a 74-year-old friend of the show, who made her stand-up comedy debut. 

Rude Jude, who lives in Charleville - 8 hours inland from Brisbane - and owns a bait and tackle shop that also has ‘a naughty corner’ with some ‘special’ adult toys.

Jude has a wicked sense of humour and is known as a local legend in her hometown. Last night, she officially made Comedy Debut, performing in front of a sold-out crowd at a brand new Fringe venue, The Pyramid at Fool’s Paradise.

To open up the show too, the boys enlisted the help of renowned comedians Nikki Osborne and Nikki Britton.

The KIIS FM Drive show can now be heard from 5-7pm on the following Super Radio Network stations: Sun FM Alice Springs; FM100.3 Armidale; B Rock FM Bathurst; Hill FM Broken Hill; Zoo FM Dubbo; FM104.7 Grafton; Tripple G FM Gunnedah; Gem FM Inverell; ZZZ FM Lismore; NOW FM Moree; Real FM Mudgee; 95.5 ROK FM Parkes; 92.9 FM Tamworth; Max FM Taree; 4AK Toowoomba/Warwick/Darling Downs and Roccy FM Young.
 


ARN’s chief executive officer Ciaran Davis said: “We are excited to grow our partnership with the Super Radio Network with this new deal that extends the reach of Will & Woody to an even larger audience across regional areas and opens up further opportunities for our commercial clients.”

Will & Woody, known for their above-average gags, banter and vulnerability, already connect with 1.62 million Australians each week via their daily drive show, broadcast across the KIIS Network and 19 regional stations.
