Radio
Brady hosted shows on radio 3AK at various times during the 1960s and 1980s and also did shifts on radio 3AW in the 1970s.
He worked as producer for Bert Newton’s morning show on radio 3UZ in the early 1980s.
In 1986, Brady moved to the Gold Coast and for nearly five years hosted a daytime radio show on Easy Listening 97 Tweed Heads.
Brady came back to Melbourne in 1990 and began a long-lasting and continuing partnership with Bruce Mansfield on talkback radio 3AW. Initially they presented the Sunday night nostalgia program Remember When and some months later the duo took over the weeknight show Nightline as well.

Famous quotes containing the word radio:
“There was a girl who was running the traffic desk, and there was a woman who was on the overnight for radio as a producer, and my desk assistant was a woman. So when the world came to an end, we took over.”
—Marya McLaughlin, U.S. television newswoman. As quoted in Women in Television News, ch. 3, by Judith S. Gelfman (1976)
“from above, thin squeaks of radio static,
The captured fume of space foams in our ears—”
—Hart Crane (1899–1932)
“Denouement to denouement, he took a personal pride in the
certain, certain way he lived his own, private life,
but nevertheless, they shut off his gas; nevertheless,
the bank foreclosed; nevertheless, the landlord called;
nevertheless, the radio broke,
And twelve o’clock arrived just once too often,”
—Kenneth Fearing (1902–1961)
