Raw, honest, and unfiltered (with fewer profanities than usual). Dave and Marshall dig into the tension between authenticity and self-control, then dive deep on co-parenting roadblocks, parental alienation, and the “energy vampire” cycle—financial drain, emotional chaos, and trauma bonds. Practical ways to set boundaries, keep your sanity, and model strength for your kids.

Golf shirts, dating disasters, and a story involving way too many guinea pigs — this episode has it all.

Dave and Marshall swap wild travel tales from Dubai and Abu Dhabi, talk about the “back nine” in more ways than one, and open up about family court, co-parenting, and learning to laugh through the madness.

It’s the perfect mix of humour and heart — Aussie banter meets real-life healing.

💥 The Ripple Effect Podcast: Where laughter and life lessons collide.

Dave and Marsh are back with another wild one. This week, Marsh opens up about his Dirty Dancing “date,” how sparkling water became a personality test, and his emotional trip to Townsville to reconnect with his son after 7 years.

It’s equal parts funny, heartfelt, and just the right amount of chaotic — featuring movie talk, air fryer cook-offs, seed retention banter, and big family moments.

💬 Tune in for laughs, real talk, and the occasional life lesson only these two could deliver.

This week, Princess Leah steps back into the Ripple Effect ring — literally — joined by her coach Luke Melton from Fortitude Boxing.

We chat all things fight night, training discipline, and how boxing’s helping break cycles and build stronger minds.

Leah’s chasing her next belt, Luke’s guiding the Fortitude crew through the Fight for a Cause event in support of Mates in Construction, and somehow we still end up talking about salt, Diet Coke, and Ferrari sponsors.

👊 Don’t forget to follow and share the ripple.

In this episode of Ripple Effect Podcast, Dave and Marsh explore how small rituals and positive self-talk can transform your day. From manifesting green lights on the freeway to late-night grounding under the stars, they share the mindset shifts that help balance work, family, and life on the road.

Along the way, they keep it entertaining with outrageous truckie stories, nightclub throwbacks, and their trademark humour. Expect laughs, lessons, and a reminder that sometimes the best thing you can do is change your perspective.

Healing Through Laughter: Telstra towers, union days & “Loose Bruce” lore

Dave & Marshall are in rare form — telling wild worksite stories (yes, radio linesmen and 45°C outback jobs), having a laugh about “Loose Bruce,” and then swerving straight into the real talk: fatherhood, co-parenting, boundaries, and why kids need stability more than adult egos. It’s equal parts pub yarns and practical wisdom.

Gold chains, big laughs, bigger honesty. Dave and Marsh salute the AusPost crew at Redbank Plains, swap an old-school trucking story, and talk plainly about drugs, alcohol, gambling, and how today’s testing culture changed the game. They also unpack “manifesting” more work and the realities of raising high-energy kids without labels.

The back half gets raw: co-parenting through conflict, missing milestones, family court frustration, and how to stay grounded—stoicism, gratitude, and creating a home kids return to.

Topics: trucking life then vs now; use vs abuse; alcohol as a depressant; gambling’s silent creep; manifesting; parenting energetic kids; mediation/court; staying steady for your kids.

👉 Follow the Ripple Effect Podcast and don’t miss the next Real Talk with Dave & Marsh.

This week on the Ripple Effect Podcast, Dave and Marsh take you from busted jobsite antics to timeless life lessons.

You’ll hear about t-shirt sponsorships, beef tallow skincare, the cost of horses, Telstra madness in the ’90s, and why stoicism might just be the key to keeping your head straight.

Funny, chaotic, and surprisingly insightful — this episode proves again why healing through laughter works.

Outrageous stories, real growth.

Dave & Marsh trade chaotic tales (yep, that “Hot Rod” tattoo makes an appearance), tower-climbing days, and roadside shenanigans — then open up about healing, setting boundaries, and picking the right person. Funny, raw, and weirdly helpful — this is Real Talk with Dave & Marsh at its best.

Mark “The Hammer” Dixon is back to the mic with candid pub stories and the characters who shaped them. We open playfully—shirts, online tee rabbit holes, and moonlit “grounding”—before moving into two true stories: one addressing confronting conduct around children (content warning) and another involving a near-catastrophic arrest outside a pub.

We discuss accountability, healing through laughter, and the importance of hearing the full story—not just a soundbite.
