James's radio career began in October 1979, when he started as an 'office boy' at 3AW. In that year he moved to a role as an audio engineer for 'Breakfast' and 'The Derryn Hinch Program', and in 1986 commenced on-air as co-host of the 3AW Breakfast Show with Uncle Roy (aka Bruce Mansfield), until 1990.[1] In 1990–1991 James co-hosted (with Bruce Mansfield) 3AK's breakfast program[1] and in 1991, moved to TTFM where he co-hosted 'Breakfast' with Jane Holmes for a year[2] and then was a general presenter there until 1994, when he rejoined 3AW. Since 1994, James has hosted twelve hours of 3AW programming on Saturday and Sunday mornings with 'Buy, Swap and Sell', the 'Big Backyard', 'The Big House' and the 'Sunday Morning' program.[3] James has also appeared every week on the light-hearted one-hour feature Friday Lunch, starting in 1996 with Ernie Sigley when Sigley was the afternoon host, and since November 2008, with Denis Walter's afternoon program, along with Andrew McLaren.
