On KRON, Radnich hosts "The World According to Gary" (a pun on The World According to Garp).

Radnich lives in San Francisco with his wife, former KRON producer Alicia Radnich. Together they host a Friday night "Letters to the Editor" segment at KRON. They have three children, Jolie, Isabella and Spencer. Radnich also has three grown children, Kelly, Douglas and Stephanie.
