Richard Stubbs is an Australian radio presenter and comedian. ==Career== Stubbs was educated at Wesley College, Melbourne, where he was school captain. He then completed a Bachelor of Economics degree. After a try-out routine at Melbourne's Last Laugh comedy theatre in 1983, Stubbs' style of anecdotal comedy, based on real-life experience, proved successful. His ability to hold an audience with his sharp delivery and rapid-fire ad libs earned him a reputation as the hottest arrival on the comedy scene. Since then, Stubbs has performed in many Australian and international comedy venues, including Montreal, Los Angeles, London and New York. Stubbs' TV credits include that of writer, interviewer, co-host, host, actor and comedian. His live performances were refined by the experience of hosting 121 ''Tonight Live'' shows on Friday evenings on Channel 7 nationally from 1990 to 1993. Stubbs' radio background is extensive, with 20 years of experience as a presenter. He started on 3XY's ''XY-Zoo'' breakfast show, followed by Triple M in the mornings before moving to the ''Richard Stubbs Breakfast Show'' for five years.

In 1998 and 1999 he had numerous corporate engagements and regularly appeared on and hosted ''Hey Hey It's Saturday''. He completed a sell-out season at the Athenaeum Theatre during the Melbourne International Comedy Festival in April 1998 and had two national tours in the same year. Stubbs' first published book was 1998's ''Still Life – Thoughts of a Man Hurriedly Going Nowhere''. Stubbs returned to radio from 2000 to 2003 on 101.1 TT FM (now known as KIIS 101.1), hosting two years in the morning shift and the third year in the 6.00 am to 9.00 am breakfast shift.
