Toni Tenaglia says she can’t wait to get stuck into her newest role as anchor of The Long Weekend, the Friday show on ARN’s GOLD Network to be hosted by Karl Stefanovic and Eddie McGuire.

After getting inundated with messages, the consistently high-rating radio veteran – heard weekdays on ARN’s GOLD stations in both Melbourne and Sydney – took to social media to clarify that she’ll be part of the new Friday show, which will also be iHeart’s global network and broadcast internationally across a host of different platforms.

“If someone told me at any stage in my radio career that I would be anchoring a national radio show on the Gold network with Karl Stefanovic and Eddie McGuire, which will also be streaming on iHeart, and can be viewed on demand on 9Now and Stan, I would’ve said you’re dreaming!!! Combining music, sport and entertainment in one show, I’m in heaven!!!”

“I feel excited to be part of a show that will be making broadcasting history and can’t wait to be on this adventure.”

Dave Cameron, Director of Content – Metro Radio at ARN, said “Toni is a radio expert and an audience favourite, consistently winning the ratings in her shift across the GOLD Network. Her warmth and experience make her the perfect addition alongside Karl and Eddie for what will be a hugely exciting new show in 2026.”
