He began in 1981when he was just 18 years old.His High School teacher at the Bladen Hall Secondary School signed him up for the job as she reportedly saw the potential in him to become a successful broadcaster.The then 18-year-old broadcast apprentice embarked on a new journey following his early success as a national junior and senior sprint champion. As it turned out, he was destined to live his life in the public domain. His attraction for sports gained him national recognition when he established an 11.0 record in the Under-17 100 metres category of the schools’ athletic championships.The mark was set aside when the age group was changed from Under-17 to Under-16.Bradshaw did not know at the time that he was setting himself up for a rewarding career in the broadcasting arena.For 21 years this very talented TV broadcaster has entertained and informed the Guyanese people about the current issues that surround society.To commemorate this huge achievement Bradshaw will be hosting a show called, “Show of Struggle”, on December 9,Nino Niederreiter Jersey, 2016 at the National Cultural Centre (NCC). This will coincide with his birth anniversary.He prided himself with having the accomplishment of being the longest standing talk-show in Guyana.The concept of “Show of Struggle”, according to Bradshaw is to showcase the struggles the programme would have gone through for the past 21 years. “Show of Struggle” will also be featuring a number of prominent local Guyanese artistes namely, the Soca King, Jumo Primo, Charmaine Blackman, the Yoruba Singers Band Leader, legendary Eze Rockcliffe,Vince Dunn Jersey, Sean Bhola, G-Money,Sean Couturier Team North America Jersey, Kwesi Ace and Calvin Burnette, Young Bill Rogers, Roger Bowen, Devon Denny,Wayne Gretzky Jersey, Abigail James Nelson, Jovinski, Gavin Mendosa,Dalton Prout Jersey, among others.Bradshaw said, “These are artistes that the show would have promoted over the years, so they will be coming out to celebrate.” The MCs for the programme would be broadcast legends, Margaret Lawrence and Ron Robinson.The producer of the show is Bonny Alves.Guyana’s number one female comedian, Odessa Primus, will also be showcasing her talent.

He said that, “it wasn’t easy to have made 21 years, especially under the PPP who tried numerous times to get the programme off the air”. The main challenge that Bradshaw had faced so far would be lack of sponsorship, he noted that, “persons would make promises to come on board but would eventually fall through for some reason or the other”.However there are very dedicated advertisers to the programme and have stuck with him throughout the years.One main hurdle that Bradshaw had overcome, according to him is, “I think that I managed mostly to stand up to political suppression and that is the most important of all.”
