  • Episode 49 - Ryan Wiggins and Lou Calvert

    2 years ago Ryan Wiggins suffered a devastating spinal cord injury after diving into a pool.

    Exactly 1 year ago he joined the podcast to tell all, and move us with his incredible outlook on life.

    This week, we get an update on his journey that includes a perspective that needs to be admired, a determination that inspires, but above all else, a incredible deep sense of gratitude!

    A life full of challenges no doubt, but a life that is full of grit and positive thinking.

    Ryan and Lou make it really clear as to why we should not only forever support Ryan's recovery, but understand and support spinal cord injury sufferers all across the world.

    Oh, and hear how caring for Ryan lead to the two of them now falling in love - simply amazing!

    Keep up the work Ryan, and big shout out to all of his family and friends for supporting him!

    Enjoy!

    We also touched on the Indigenous voice to Parliament vote that is looming, local footy and how good was Saturday at North Hobart, AFL recap, going overseas and being unorganised, Taylor Swift tickets, John has a rant on rubbish collection, and I even ranted about Marlon Pickett from the Tigers...

    All that and much more!

    Thanks for listening!

  • Episode 48 - Ben Fisher
    Ben Fisher is the Call Centre Manager of A Tasmanian Lifeline.

  • Episode 47 - Melanie Carroll

    Mel Carroll joined me to recap her struggles as a younger person with major self-esteem issues.

    These issues lead to an eating disorder, mental health challenges, and even down the path of devising a plan to take her own life, as she devastatingly felt that suicide was her only option.
    Mel bravely shares her challenges, but also the incredible story of resilience as she accepted her demons (all with the support and acceptance of her amazing Mum) and found a way to now live a life that is healthy, clearer, and much more positive - all whilst now being over 50 kilograms lighter :)
    We talked about overcoming adversity, acceptance of oneself, the power in being supported (and supporting others), professional services and the impact they have, strategies around motivation, and much more.
    A truly powerful episode for all, but please if you see fit, get your kids to take a listen - so many learnings for all of us!
    If this episode brings distress, please call Lifeline on 13 11 14, or chat to a trusted friend or adult!

  • Get a little Frank #27

    John X and WIN News' Alex Johnston joined me for GALF 27 this week!


    On this episode...

    After 21 years on air, Sunrise's David Koch has resigned, sparking conversation among us as to who will replace him, and what a marvelous effort that is.

    Is Sam Kerr our most inspirational sports person? We discuss this and give our 2 cents.

    We discuss the pending closure of the Private Mental health facility in St Helens. I gave my thoughts on the importance of surrounding ourselves with supportive, trustworthy people as our support networks - It has never been more important to recognise those around you who can help you out in a tough time!

    Do we trust those in an emergency exit row? A South Korean passenger opened the door as the plane landed causing complete chaos. Hear why we shouldn't let AJ sit in those seats...

    John's Rant about stores that don't do proper stock take...


    All that and much more, enjoy!
