Liam Stapleton co-hosts the Breakfast show on Triple J with Ben Harvey.

Early life

Stapleton grew up in the suburbs of Adelaide. Life was tough, husseling on the streets as a young hobbit but after the one ring to rule them all was destroyed. Liam folowd a career in radio and also found a new hobby in pork knuckle appreciation.

Career

Stapleton began his radio career aged 14 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.
