Homer Simpson, Dr Who, dead cats: Inside radio star’s quirky home

A host of quirky characters and bizarre keepsakes take pride of place in this breakfast radio host’s Brisbane home. Take a look inside.

There’s Homer Simpson, Dr Who, and even the late and great Betty White, but his favourite would have to be the Swarovski crystal Superman.

These are just a handful of the pop culture figurines displayed proudly in a cabinet in the home of Brisbane’s affable breakfast radio host, Stav Davidson.

“My wife understood that penchant when we got together,” he said. “When I put a lock on (the cabinet), that’s when I knew I’d grown up.”

The Davidsons recently bought a new house in The Gap, where they are still unpacking, but were kind enough to let The Courier-Mail inside for an exclusive look.

If there’s one word that could be used to describe B105’s resident funny guy, it’s quirky, and eccentric touches can be found all around the house.

Figurines are not the only thing Stav collects. Guitars are his other love — after his wife, Cat.

“I try to play every day,” he said. “Hopefully, one day, be doing cover sessions at bowls clubs on Sunday afternoons, singing ‘90s grunge classics.”

The kitchen is Stav’s domain, with a roller door revealing his beloved airfryer.

Ever the gentleman, he also regularly buys his wife flowers, many of which grace the shelves — just not the perishable kind.

Natives, poppies, even elaborate orchids; but all are made out of Lego.

“They never die. You just have to dust them.”

Taking pride of place next to the front door hangs a print in memory of their late cat, Mallora.

“My wife and I were both stand-up comedians at the time and we were heading out to a gig,” he said. “My wife was backing out of the driveway and ran her over.

“Then we had to go to the comedy club, do a comedy show, and then I had to come home and bury her in the backyard. God bless our neighbours, who we knew, because I called them at 11 o’clock at night and asked them if they had a pick and a shovel. They didn’t even ask any questions!”

Downstairs is dedicated entirely to his 12-year-old daughter, Rori.

“Rori’s starting school in The Gap, so that was always the plan, to find something bigger,” he said.

The Davidsons sold their previous home in Bardon after 12 years.

“I have moved 36 times in my life, so I do not get sentimental about houses, but both my wife and daughter cried when we left,” he said.

“That was the longest I’ve ever been in one house.”
