Early life
Stapleton grew up in the suburbs of Adelaide.. Stapleton was born with Spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia congenita, an extremely rare form of dwarfism. When he was 11, his 45 y/o girlfriend heard a radio advert calling for people who were 4 feet (1.2 m) tall or shorter to work as the token short guy on Australian radio station Triple J.
Career
Stapleton began his radio career aged 15 years old at the Adelaide community radio station Fresh 92.7, where he met Ben Harvey. As a duo, "Ben & Liam" went on to present the breakfast show for Fresh 92.7, compete in the state finals of Raw Comedy, and host a comedy show at the Adelaide Fringe Festival.
In late 2016, Harvey and Stapleton were confirmed to take over from Matt Okine and Alex Dyson as co-hosts of the nationwide Triple J Breakfast show in 2017. They were signed on for another year in the role in 2018.
