In a world where we are told to look elsewhere for the answers; Steve & Peter delve deep into rite's of passage amongst other concepts & how looking within for the answers will ultimately lead us to our own liberation. With their friendship forged through a rite of passage at the renowned Love Out Loud Retreat at Mt Warning National Park in November last year Steve & Peter explore how that experience altered the trajectory of their lives & how the tools & connections acquired on Retreat continue to serve them going forward in the year 2020 & beyond.
In every moment we are only making one of two choices; to evolve, or to repeat.

We all understand the need for sustainability. But David Paynter is the man you need to listen to, get the easy to follow instructions on exactly how to do it. David and Steve discuss the simplest way we all can do our bit, by just taking a second to think about what the hell we are doing with our waste, our unused tools and our next purchase. David and Steve also discuss the sustainable community and how good it feels to share your time and give back to the community you belong to. One of the keenest members of The Mateshop, David and Steve also discuss how men can be more involved in charity and community work that helps your soul feel good. The GC Tool Library is coming soon and David is going to be in the thick of it. David is setting up the best way we can utilise our unused garden tools, power tools and small machinery for thewhole community to share. So everybody can access the best tools for the job, without having a giant shed for something used twice a year. This great initiative will help the community be more sustainable by reusing and lending the stuff that sits there wasted.

After substance abuse and alcoholism that was out of control, Drew and Steve find out how taking responsibility for your own actions, can help you process and illuminate a path of fulfilment, for yourself and maybe to guide others through the virulent world in which we live in, at times.
Drew and Steve engage in this conversation to help you make decisions that you can laugh along with and maybe take with you as a key to unlock your addiction.

Marc and Steve go on a journey into a dark place of international human trafficking. But Marc has a solution for that, where the story starts with a couple of mates forming a bond over a hatred for people taking advantage of the poor and weak. Some of Marc’s mates have formed an organisation that goes incognito in third world countries to bust international child trafficking rings.
Destiny Rescue is a formidable team of ex-army personnel that help local and federal authorities become aware of what is happening in their own back yard. Marc shares the special feeling of being a part of changing a child’s life from misery, to hope and freedom. He knows how good that is for your heart, to feel that huge glow when you see a life changing moment. He tells us how the fear in the eyes of a young slave, dissipates before him, when a rescue goes through and the child has a realisation, that their destiny has been changed. The story of Mates getting together and pulling this off is an amazing one. It will change your life and is part of the reason the Mateshop was formed. Marc’s inspiration is in the veins of The Mateshop, not only as one the founding members, but the reason we are raising money for the Destiny Rescue team.
The Mateshop Merch sales and Fundraising are a stream for the charity and the inspiration for our members to give back to the communities and children around the world.https://www.destinyrescue.org.au/

Where Steve has more questions to answer, rather than Omar. Why? Because Omar knows how to read your soul, and he wants to find answers for all of us, as much we do. This mystical talk will make you ponder on your existence and want you to connect with Omar. He not only helps you ease into a new way of thinking; he really does know how to get inside your own crazy mind.
