Liam Stapleton co-hosts the Breakfast show on Nova 919 with Ben Harvey.

Early life

Stapleton grew up in the suburbs of Adelaide.

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 mainly because Liam is exceptionally well at punching ridiculous amount of cones on and off air, he even asked his producer (which is a good sort btw) if it could be a segment on the show, unfortunately this idea was rejected.
