Former Nova stars Ben Harvey and Liam Stapleton have spoken out about their brutal axing from the network and subsequent gagging. The network revealed in September that the Late Drive hosts Ben Harvey, Liam Stapleton, and co-host Belle Jackson would not have their contracts renewed. The non-compete clause meant that Ben and Liam were barred from broadcasting at another station for six months. Ben and Liam kicked off their radio careers in Adelaide on community station Fresh 92.7. The pair returned to Adelaide in 2020 to host Nova 91.9's breakfast show before relocating to Melbourne in early 2023.
