In this first episode of Season Two Matt Bodett sits down with Matthew Jackman for a conversation that moves across art, identity, and the lived experience of madness without reducing any of it to diagnosis. We talk about how culture shapes what gets called disordered, how language can both confine and release, and what it means to claim authorship over your own narrative. Matthew reflects on process, familial history, and the tension between visibility and erasure in ways that feel grounded and urgent. If you care about mad culture as something more than a clinical category, this episode asks you to listen closely and consider how we engage in activism and how we honor our lived experiences.

Matthew Jackman is the founder of The Australian Centre for Living Experience 'TACFLE' - www.tacfle.com
