Brent speaks with Dan Repacholi MP, Special Envoy for Men’s Health, about the establishment of the Prostate Cancer Expert Advisory Group, a major new national initiative under the Australian Cancer Plan aimed at improving outcomes for Australian men.

They break down why prostate cancer remains the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men, and the second leading cause of cancer-related death, and what this new expert group is designed to change across prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and patient support.

The discussion explores how the advisory group will work to improve early detection, reduce inequities in access to care, and ensure treatment is consistent, evidence-based, and accessible regardless of where Australians live.

Brent and Dan also examine the broader impact on families, the challenges facing rural and remote communities, and the importance of balancing early detection with avoiding overdiagnosis and overtreatment.

This is a grounded conversation about where men’s health policy is heading in Australia — and what meaningful change could look like over the next decade.
