Damian has been doing poorly paid work for ABC radio since early in his career. He has hosted and been a regular guest on 774ABC Melbourne, 602ABC Sydney, JJJ and Radio National. He is best known to Victorian ABC audiences where he has confused listeners with characters based on a news item of the moment. He began this tradition on 774ABC Melbourne Evenings with Lindy Burns and it has continued on to The Friday Revue with Brian Nankervis & Jacinta Parsons. Over the years, listeners regularly call or text in accusing Damian of being anyone who sounds slightly dubious. It’s flattering, but really indicates that ABC listeners have got too much time on their hands. Here are some recent segments …
