2GB has stormed to an outright No.1 position in Sydney, delivering a commanding 12.8 radio share (up 1.2) and leading in all key timeslots, as audiences embrace the station’s refreshed line-up and trusted talk programming.

Ben Fordham Live remains the clear No.1 in Breakfast, posting a 15.5 share (up 1.4) on radio and a 39.5% share in commercial streaming. Mark Levy has strengthened his hold on Mornings in his second only survey, recording a 15.5 share (up 2.0) and a 32.2% commercial streaming share, making him Sydney’s most listened-to voice in the timeslot.

In commercial streaming, 2GB leads nationally with a 31.3% share, reflecting strong digital engagement across Breakfast and Mornings in particular.

Greg Byrnes, 2GB Station Manager and National Content Manager, said: “It’s this 24/7 commitment to live and local coverage that sets 2GB apart in Sydney and all the hard work pays off when we get a survey result like this one.”

“The figures recorded by Ben in Breakfast and Mark in Mornings are stunning, but 2GB has recorded share increases and longer listening patterns in all day parts.

“Sydney has embraced the shift changes we made at the beginning of the year and we thank those listeners who turn to 2GB for trusted news, opinion and entertainment around the issues affecting them most.”
