[edit] Broadcasting Career

David says he stumbled into the world of broadcasting at the turn of the Millennium when he was invited to comment on the stock market crash.

Since then, David has worked on BBC London 94.9’s overnight show, Drivetime and was a daily feature on Jon Gaunt’s phone-in show, where he was dubbed the “Cuddly Capitalist”. He can be heard on BBC London’s 94.9 Breakfast Show with JoAnne Good where he arouses listeners every weekday morning with his unique brand of financial news[2].

David's crowning moment arrived when he passed an on-air audition to present the daily financial slot on the Danny Baker Show. This allowed him to diversify from the world of finance and become a radio personality. David has since become a regular sidekick to Danny Baker, joining him on his current afternoon show and he also appeared on Baker's podcast called the All Day Breakfast Show [2].
