Nine Removes The Long Weekend After Stefanovic Exit

Nine Network has dropped the new radio show The Long Weekend from its 9Now and streaming platforms following the resignation of .

Stefanovic, 51, was slated to co-, with expectations that it would be a multi-platform rollout.

However, it would seem Nine has quietly dropped the show, which can now only be heard on Gold FM, according to the Herald Sun on Saturday.

The only episode available on Nine is the June 26 upload where McGuire addressed Stefanovic's absence following his career-ending interview with .  

Stefanovic, who sensationally , only appeared in two episodes of The Long Weekend.

McGuire, 61, has continued to host the show solo with the help of newsreader Georgia Love and anchor Toni Tenaglia.  

Nine streaming and broadcast managing director Amanda Laing had said it 'made perfect sense' for the Nine stars to have their show promoted on 9Now and Stan.

However, it seems that sentiment has since withered away following the recent fallout and media storm surrounding Stefanovic and his podcast The Karl Stefanovic Show. 

Daily Mail has reached out to Nine for comment. 

McGuire confirmed last week that he will no longer be sharing the mic with Stefanovic on his ARN radio show The Long Weekend.

The sports commentator sent well-wishes to his mate and short-lived colleague while appearing solo on the show last weekend.

'As extensively , my co-host and friend Karl Stefanovic will no longer be part of The Long Weekend show, as he dedicates the next phase of his amazingly successful career to his podcast, The Karl Stefanovic Show,' McGuire said.

'I wish Karl the best of luck as his storied and ever-colourful media journey continues.

'Good on you, Karlos. It was short and sweet, mate, and I wish you all the best.'
