When prompted by his friends on his decision to leave he added, “Will fill you in with details but just got off the plane and this all happened hahaha, grafted hard there, but the main reason is i’m too much of a stick in the mud. Bloody maybe I should have to conformed and been the monkey they wanted. But thank you alot made me value you myself at my lowest.”

Brasco recently returned back from India after a family bereavement. Incidentally, Brasco’s show has been the only Breakfast show on the Sunrise Radio Group that has been able to sustain its listenership over the past year.
