The Third Beer Podcast

This week on the Third Beer Podcast, Chris Dickson and I are lucky enough to be joined for the third time by our good friend, Keiron Byrne. Keiron is a psychologist specialising in positive psychology, as well as a high-school basketball coach. I don’t know why he keeps coming back, as an allergy to fructose keeps him from drinking beer with us, but he must just like our company.

Despite the lack of Dutch courage, we still manage to go deep about subjects most blokes find difficult to talk about. We discuss the overwhelming fatigue felt by a lot of people this year, going deep into and struggling (or not wanting) to get back out of our caves, and whether we are being alive every day, or dying every day.

Crack a cold one, and listen to the full episode of the Full Beer Podcast here. Enjoy, cheers!

In Today’s Third Beer podcast, we have special guest Cato Sibthorpe, a young entrepreneur who has experienced the trials of life at a very young and bounced back with a personal vision to become the best person he can be.

Brett met Cato at a speech he did and was immediately amazed at his dedication to living life to the fullest at such a young age. Cato opens up about how one mistake when he was a teenager woke him up to realise, the path he was going down was leaving him empty. He speaks about his mental health through that time and gives advice on how to get through these low points.

We also learn that Cato has a business called Bonafide Fitness where he trains young men around his age to assist them physically, but also to bring a sense of brotherhood in their lives. Cato also has a main vision in life to work with school kids. He has been lucky enough to have already spoken at a school, to show them that life can bring so many amazing opportunities, more than what they think.

Tune in today to hear about his inspiring story and advice!

This week on the Third Beer Podcast we are joined by the one and only Louise Christie. Louise is a dear friend and past colleague of Chris’, a mother, a master storyteller, a lover of writing, and has worked in social work. Louise opens up about her childhood and early adulthood experiences with feeling like she did not understand what was going on around her. She has had a chaotic upbringing characterized by alcohol misuse in her family and was overwhelmed with trauma and grief from the death of close family members. Although Louise has faced many trials and tribulations, through much resilience and soul searching, she had a remarkable spiritual awakening and re-authored her life. So, tune in to today’s podcast and hear what this gem has to say.

This week on The Third Beer podcast previous guest Kieron Byrne returns to join Chris Dickson and I. Kieron is a psychologist specializing in positive psychology, a talented basketball coach to teenage boys, and is an amazing mate to my co-host Chris Dickson. Ironically, Kieron is unable to drink a beer on the Third Beer podcast as he will go into a coma and die if he consumes any fructose. No joke!

As per usual on the Third Beer Podcast, we talk about subjects that blokes find hard to talk about. Today’s topic being the global pandemic, COVID-19. We discuss how COVID has impacted our lives, what lessons it has taught us, and all the highs and lows of this virus. We also reflect on whether or not COVID has taken a toll on our mental health and wellbeing.

Have a beer for fructose intolerant Kieron and listen to the full episode on The Third Beer Podcast here. Enjoy, cheers!

Joshua has over 20 years of experience in the hospitality industry and has used his experience and flair for marketing to start ‘MasterHost Coaching’ to pass on his knowledge, experience and talent to hospitality businesses around Australia.

On our latest episode of The Third Beer, Brett and Chris are joined by the courageous Justin Gambino who was a victim of domestic violence from his ex-wife.

Justin explains the gruelling process of having to prove he was being abused, proving his innocence when he was falsely being claimed as an abuser, the money spent on solicitors and court proceedings (hint, it’s a 6 digit number!), the toll it took on him mentally and how he ultimately came out a happier man in the end.

We discuss all of these great topics and more so join us while we crack open a few cold ones and discuss on The Third Beer.

Marius van der Nist is a motivational speaker, coach and author of ‘It’s all about you’. This Third Beer podcast guest is so relevant and his life story so epic - we’ve invited Marius back because we’ve got to hear more! Marius a former professional rugby union player, and former media man, is in the business of helping people, especially men who like him had gone through tonnes, but didn’t know how to get sorted out or get support. Today Marius is a force of nature. You won’t believe the hurdles he has jumped. Join myself and Chris Dickson, co-host and resident therapist, as we talk about men’s business and Marius shares the gold that has not only saved his life - but also turned him into an inspiring man today.

Happy New Year! Our first episode for 2019 is with my favourite cohost and therapist Chris Dickson, and special guest Jason Darrington. Jason has worked with Porsche in England and China for 10+ years and moved to Australia last year with his wife Dominica and four kids. I have four kids too. Hang on! Chris has four kids as well. What a crazy coincidence. Jason is also cofounder of Parenthoodlum, a community for parents to share and learn whilst navigating the crazy and amazing job of raising children.

In this show Jason shares his special life story and leads to why him and his wife started Parenthoodlum. The three of us as fathers’ banter over a bevy about kids and social media, nurture vs nature, and much more. If you’ve been listening along so far, Chris and I update you on what has happened in our lives since the last episode. There are always a few laughs because if we didn’t laugh at life we’d probably cry, especially if Paul Kelly comes on the radio (more on that story). Join us for the The Third Beer podcast where we talk about things men don’t often talk about.

This week on The Third Beer podcast Kieron Byrne joins Chris Dickson again, two psychologists and close colleagues with a lot of personal history shared. The Third guest is Alex Fischer, a student of philosophy, law and business who has listened to every podcast. We hear what Alex saw as a similar theme (by accident) through all the episodes and guests on the show – and it is . All three guys reflect on the season so far. Epically, at 24 years old Alex drinks his first beer on the show but it’s not a show about lowering inhibitions. Well actually it is, the episode raises the big topic of love and with two therapist’s and a student philosopher in the room, love is analysed in all it’s forms: the good bad and the ugly. Does love conquer all? Find out on The Third Beer podcast.
