Richard hosts Wednesday Breakfast (Wed mornings 6-9am).
I’ve loved radio ever since I built my first crystal set when I was 8. I’m a bit of a guitar freak (not that you could tell!) and I love guitar driven music especially from the 70s and 80s, such as the Eagles and Cold Chisel.
Great music puts a shiver down my spine, and can bring tears to my eyes! I’m also a fan of the Album as a music form as it communicates the “culture” and “place” of the artist at that time.
I live on the Bass Coast and consider myself very fortunate! I have opinions on most things and love to wax philosophically.

A true music aficionado, Tony has a rich history of hosting shows on 3RRR and other Community Radio stations.
“It all started with a tea chest of records collected in Africa.
I rocked up to 3RRR in 1984 and said ‘this music needs to be heard’.
I was interviewed about my travels through Africa seeing bands and then offered a show.
For 8 years, I showcased the best of Africa with reggae, soul, funk, gospel, blues and jazz. It’s all connected!
Since then, I have guested in Sydney on 2SER and in Melbourne on 3PBS.
I have been collecting music for many years and my show comes from this collection.”
