On this day one year ago, Sean Bell was 31 marathons in on his mission towards achieving 50 marathons in 50 days straight.

His outstanding effort wasn’t for him, it was for the memory of his good mate Joey, who passed away suddenly in his sleep.

Sean’s story is incredible and inspiring. With such a wise head on his young shoulders, even the oldest listener will take something from the way Sean views the world.

If there was one single podcast episode to listen to from 2019.

If you’ve never listened to a podcast and need somewhere to start.

If you want to cap off 2019 the right way, or kick off your 2020 with a bang...

This is the episode.

Back in March, Martin of The Resilience Project blew our socks off with his incredible storytelling and his compelling messages of gratitude, empathy and mindfulness.

Nick and Stu left that chat as better people, and the many many people that have reached out to us after listening to this episode spoke the same tune...

This episode is life changing.

Happy New Year

Claire Ashman spent the first 36 years of her life in two different strict religious movements. After defying her husband, the cult “leader” and the entire group by asking too many questions, Claire and her family found themselves evicted from the infamous ‘Order of St Charbel’ religious group.

Claire takes us through the whole roller coaster journey, going deep on what goes on in religious cults and how ‘leaders’ manage to convince people of their power and trust their guidance.

The most intriguing part of our chat is when Claire details her transition back into ‘normal’ life. When you’ve been brought up on a completely different reality, how do you cope?

If you don’t attend church on Sunday, will the world implode?

The girls share all of their knowledge and experience in the mental health space, including discussing techniques and methods for overcoming depression and anxiety.

One of our most moving, most compelling discussions to date, this is an episode not to be missed.

David and Lauryn Jordan share all of their wisdom and insight into how not just 2, but 4 people must communicate and work together with complete and raw honesty and vulnerability to create a baby via surrogacy — providing many takeaways valuable to our relationships.

Today we talk to Sexologist (yes that is a real thing), Lauren White.

Lauren's job is to open up the conversation and help women find or reclaim their libido. She is a qualified counselor, sexologist and often features as the resident expert on Triple J's The Hookup.

We get into all areas about sexual health and wellbeing and discover why someone may need to reach out for sex therapy. Yet again Stu and Nick delve into a world that might seem a little uncomfortable for two regular blokes. We talk all things sensual, women's biology and even find out how a cup of tea might just be the best aphrodisiac available.

Of course, we ask the hard (pun intended) questions and this episode is guaranteed to improve your life in the bedroom.

Two years ago, Brendan Saker dropped a barbell right into the middle of his back. Immediately losing all feeling in his legs it was pretty clear that his life was about to change.

Brendan’s amazing story of coming out the other side of a serious spinal injury in a better place than beforehand is inspirational.

How does someone achieve such after what could have been a turning point for the worst?

Get a look into a new seminar developed by Stu, presented to Nick's gym, Renegade.

What do you do when you are faced with problems?

Do you shudder and hide away in fear?

Do you give up and try again later when the obstacle has faded?

Are road blocks standing in your pathway to success every damn time??

Stu puts a spin on 'problems' and how problems can not only be overcome, but used as tools and fuel for success and opportunity.
