‘I’ve loved everything I’ve done here’: Gus Worland to depart Triple M
Legendary radio broadcaster Gus Worland has announced that he will be leaving Triple M at the end of the year.
Worland – who has spent 16 years on Triple M, first starting on the famous Grill Team breakfast show – shared his decision during an emotional speech on The Rush Hour on Monday.
“I just feel it’s right, I’m 56 in December. I’ve been thinking about for a long time,” he said.
“I gotta tell you, it’s so hard because I love you guys, you know? I’ve loved this show and I’ve loved everything I’ve done here at Triple M.”
Worland plans to dedicate himself full-time to the Gotcha4Life Foundation mental health charity.
“I want to thank everyone I have worked with over the past 16 years,” Worland continued.
“From my early days with Matty Johns, Mark Geyer, and Chris Page, to my current team with Jude Bolton and Aaron Woods, I have been fortunate to collaborate with some truly remarkable people,” Worland said.
“I am also grateful to all the incredible behind-the-scenes staff who have helped keep our shows running smoothly.”
Triple M head of content Matthew O’Reilly said in a statement: “We are sad to see him go, however, we know how much his charity Gotcha4Life means to him, and the incredible impact that it is having on the community, so we understand why he wants to go all-in on this important work.
“Gus will remain a loved member of the Triple M family, and we wish him all the very best with Gotcha4Life.”
