‘It’s come up a couple of times about Marty leaving Nova – of course we used to work there together,’ Sam said on the Ten show.
‘And people say that he left of his own accord. Frogmarched out of the building is another way to put it,’ Sam said.
Marty, who also appears on HYBPA?, laughed at the joke.

Sam went on to say that he recently stole a cardboard cut out with Marty as he ‘misses him.’
Last month, Marty, 49, shut down talk that he could be heading to Triple M or be starting a new podcast after leaving Nova.
Speaking to Radio Today, Marty said: ‘I’ll be happy to go out for dinner by then, let alone any kind of gainful employment.’

The publication reported that the two hosts will have contract talks later this year.
Marty was replaced on the Kate, Tim and Marty show by comedian Joel Creasey, 30.
