ARN’s newest dynamic duo – Karl Stefanovic and Eddie McGuire – are among a handful of radio personalities up for Logie Awards this year.

Stefanovic is nominated for the Ray Martin Award for Most Popular News or Public Affairs Presenter for his work on the Today show.

McGuire is up for the Bruce McAvaney Award for Most Popular Sports Presenter for his work on Footy Classified and the Melbourne Cup Carnival.

Fellow ARN talent Amanda Keller, former SCA veteran Hamish Blake, Mick Molloy and Andy Maher (The Front Bar) and ex-Nova Breakfast co-host Sam Pang are also in the Logies mix, along with Bianca Dye, who – fresh from a memorable guest-hosting stint on KIIS Sydney Breakfast – is getting ready to revisit her TV past, with Nine’s The Golden Bachelor among the nominees.

The show’s up for Best Structured Reality Program, alongside the likes of MAFS, Gogglebox Australia and Farmer Wants A Wife.

Dye was knocked for six by the groundswell of support her appearance The Golden Bachelor generated, with viewers launching an online campaign for her to have her own spinoff show.

As she told Radio Today “I think I’m blown away by it because I was just on TV being me.”

Same goes for radio.

“I haven’t changed. I’ve always been me on the radio. Always.”

The 2026 TV Week Logie Awards will be held Sunday, 16 August at The Star in Sydney and will be broadcast live on Seven and 7plus.
