With over three decades of industry experience and some highly opinionated commentary, it’s no wonder current affairs commentator and talk show presenter Steve Price has become an Australian household name.
Covering all the major news stories since the 70’s, it’s safe to say no one knows current affairs like Steve. Steve is best known for presenting the No.1 rating drive program on Melbourne’s 3AW, between 1987 and 2002. Following this, Steve also presented the morning program on Sydney’s 2UE from 2002-2009. Unsurprisingly, Steve has also received multiple awards for Program Director of the Year, as well as Australia’s current affairs Commentator & Talk Presenter of the Year on numerous occasions.
In April 2012, Steve joined the team at 2GB with a brand-new show, Nights with Steve Price reviewing the day’s news and current affairs, while also following the breaking news of the night. The show also featured a nightly discussion with Australia’s most read opinion maker, Andrew Bolt and dominated the nighttime listening audience. In 2015, Nights with Steve Price began broadcasting in Brisbane on 4BC, as well as into regional cities around Australia. Later that year, the show also began broadcasting on 3AW in Melbourne. His program Nights with Steve Price was heard nationally on 56 stations for more than eight years, achieving the extraordinarily rare feat of being Number 1 simultaneously in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne.
In 2021 Steve Price launched his new daily live streamed 7.00am-9.00am show, exclusively on the LiSTNR app. Australia Today with Steve Price will be the country's first truly digital audio live to air conversation, and alongside accomplished journalist Natarsha Belling, the duo will dive into the stories of the day. Australia Today with Steve Price will talk live and directly to locals across the nation from Broome to Bundaberg, Mt Isa down to Mount Gambier and all the capital cities in between, to get to the bottom of what matters most to Australians and cut through corporate and political spin.
Australia Today with Steve Price is also broadcast live on Triple M AM and FM radio stations in regional NSW from 9:00am to 11:00am
Steve is also a founding panellist of Ten’s prime-time news show The Project and still, 11 years later, Steve appears as a weekly guest panelist every Monday and Wednesday evening. In addition, Steve also appeared in another of Network Ten’s prime-time shows, I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here! According to Steve, surviving on a restricted diet and taking part in emotionally and physically strenuous challenges has left quite an impact. Post-jungle, Steve has a come out with a new-found appreciation for life, entering the competition as a ‘grumpy old bugger’ and leaving a happier, healthier and totally changed man.
Steve writes a weekly column in the Herald Sun Saturday edition.
