There’s no love lost between Kyle Sandilands and Grant Denyer.

On his morning KIIS FM radio program, The Kyle and Jackie O Show, the 47-year-old shock jock went on a nasty rant, criticising Grant’s nomination for a Gold Logie.

After saying Grant’s TV and radio shows were failing, he went on to say he was “surprised” when he found out the Family Feud host had been nominated for the coveted Gold Logie.

He said he just couldn’t wrap his head around the fact Grant was up for a Gold Logie, because it should be reserved for "the best person".

"Grant’s gone on and voted for himself," he concluded.

Sandilands also chucked in a few other choice words during the segment. Oh, and he called up Denyer's "illegitimate step half-brother", who goes by the name "Isis" too.
