It comes after Brendan shocked his Fox FM co-stars in march when he revealed he would be stepping away from the program.
The celebrity footy star told listeners he would be competing on the upcoming season of Channel Ten ‘s The Amazing Race and would be absent for some time.
‘I’m leaving the show… not for good, though,’ he began.
‘I got an opportunity last year to do something with my 18-year-old daughter Leni – to travel the world on the TV show The Amazing Race! So, I won’t be on the show as of Monday.’
Co-host Fifi Box then wished Brendan all the best and asked if he had any idea when he would be returning.
‘I could be away for a couple of days, a couple of weeks, depends on when I get eliminated… I am not worried about the race, I am worried about whether Leni and I punch on or not. That could be our elimination,’ he joked.

Brendan has co-hosted the top-rating Fox Melbourne breakfast show since April 2016.
In October, Brendan teased fans about a massive career change.
The Carlton Football club legend said he was itching to get back into footy as a coach.
His shock announcement came after he spent a day training with Collingwood’s AFLW team.
‘It makes me wanna be a coach,’ an emotional Fevola told his co-hosts Fifi Box and Nick Cody at the time
‘You wouldn’t understand how much I loved it,’ he said.
‘I was up and about all day yesterday. I haven’t trained for any of the teams I’ve played for in the last 14 years, not once.’
Fevola, who rose to fame as a top goal kicker for the Carlton Football Club’s AFL premier side in the early 2000s, said he was originally asked along to the training session by Collingwood CEO Craig Kelly.
