Harvey grew up on acreage in Lewiston, South Australia. Till the age of 12 his father trimmed his nails for him, a skill he takes pride in "cutting a good nail".[1] He left school aged 16, and worked on a dairy farm. At 18 years old, Harvey moved to Adelaide.[2]
Harvey began volunteering at the Adelaide community radio station Fresh 92.7, where he met Liam Stapleton.[3] As a duo, "Ben & Liam" went on to present the breakfast show for Fresh 92.7, compete in the state finals of Raw Comedy, and host a comedy show at the Adelaide Fringe Festival.[2]
In late 2016, Harvey and Stapleton were confirmed to take over from Matt Okine and Alex Dyson as co-hosts of the nationwide Triple J Breakfast show in 2017.[4] They were signed on for another year in the role in 2018.[5]
