A Lot To Talk About

Cody Ramsey is a contracted rugby league player at the St George Illawarra Dragons.

After an electric first year in the NRL, Cody fell ill with a debilitating condition that not only halted his career but his whole life. Losing 29 kilograms in a matter of weeks, surviving multiple surgeries & an 8 month stint in hospital, he is set to make what may be the greatest comeback in rugby league history.

In this incredibly raw conversation, Cody speaks on his fiance's unwavering support through the most challenging time of their lives, a look under the hood of his last 2 years out of the game & how he's managing his return.

Ash Wicks is quickly becoming one of Australia's favourite creators.

With his witty humour & relatable take on marriage & parenthood, Ash has amassed a following of over 400k on Instagram & a loyal audience on his podcast 'Two Doting Dads', alongside cohost & great mate Matty J.

Though behind the humour, there is a story bigger than what some may expect from the funny man. A hard fought battle with depression & anxiety that Ash admits nearly got the better of him in his first few months of fatherhood. A story he has found purpose in sharing to help other early stage parents & men who struggle with their mental health.

This incredibly vulnerable conversation crushes stigmas for Aussie men & leans into a side of Ash Wicks that some of you may be seeing or hearing for the first time.
