Veteran ABC radio star confirms he has been sacked from his weekend show in ‘shock’ decision

Radio star Simon Marnie has confirmed he has been fired from his long-running weekend show.

He wrote on Instagram: ‘After about a week of speculation I can confirm that the ABC has looked at its weekend structure in 2025 and have informed me that they have no role for me in that structure.

‘This came as a shock and I am still processing what it means for me.

‘If you’re in Sydney on Sunday, I’d like you to join me one last time for the Weekend Show Christmas Picnic Outside Broadcast at Jazz @ The House in the grounds of Government House.

‘Please come with me. Sunday, December 10 – 12:00 the broadcast. Jazz all day in the House.’
