History

In November 2020, Southern Cross Austereo announced that The Marty Sheargold Show [1] would replace The Hot Breakfast in 2021 after Eddie McGuire and Luke Darcy decided to end the show at the end of 2020 after 11 years. [2] Sheargold was part of Nova's national drive show, Kate, Tim & Marty until September 2020 when he departed the show. [3]

In October 2023, Marty triggered controversy that is openly regarded as being the most significant moment in Australian radio history. In fact, some equated it to being bigger than Watergate when Marty casually dismissed the technically correct answer of Chris in Three Way. The “captain’s call” resulted in him missing a highly valued prize and Troy cut off the call before Loz’s appeal for a robe could be adequately discussed. It was a dark day for breakfast radio indeed, akin to the day that David Warner encouraged a player to slip a bit of sandpaper into his pants and rough up the ball. This has since been described as “the day Marty outdid David Warner”.
