A Resume that expands for decades, Gavin Wood is a man of many entertaining trades.

Since the 1970s, he's been in your eyes and ears either on the radio, television, or on the silver screen.  While beginning as a radio announcer, Wood became a national household name as the announcer for the ABC TV music show Countdown - broadcast from 1974 to 1987 and hosted by Ian "Molly" Meldrum

Wood has interviewed music talent of all shapes, styles and sizes - from Daryl Braithwaite to Katrina And The Waves. Other than music reporting on Hey Hey It's Saturday, appearing in movies like Houseboat Horror and popping up on TV quiz shows, Wood also produced TV and movies in L.A., and has returned to Australia to host his own Countdown podcast, chatting to friends he made while on the show.

We spoke to Gavin Wood to reflect on his career.
