Denks heads on the government mandated podcast break early which leaves the boys with no option but to have another 'Tea with Toddy'. Connor's finds a flaw in his goal to wake up early to perform a random act of kindness whilst Jerome feels like getting back into an old hobby is just like riding a bike... something he cannot do. Toddy joins the boys from the Costa Rican jungle for more unsolicited medical advice but does bring 3 tough questions that leads to an incredible vulnerable chat!

In this episode of The ZOOP Podcast we welcome back Toddy Odrowaz to the pod! Toddy has followed his heart all the way to Florida in the United States and comes back with a new tea and some big questions for the boys!

This episode is about having meaningful moments with your mates. Vulnerability is a key pillar of authentic connection and the boys thought there's no better way to model vulnerability than go through it themselves.

Listen in as the boys delve into whether adulthood was what they expected it would be when growing up and discuss (weirdly) an inanimate that they all find attractive...

Vulnerability gets weird!

The boys embark on another ZOOP journey with a new set of goals for the next 8 weeks. On this season of the pod, the boys will be tailoring their goals around social anxiety; a pertinent issue following 2 years of hard lockdown in the state of Victoria, Australia.

The goals will be based on the teachings from 'The School of ZOOP' episodes to see whether the well-being tips and tricks from leading experts work for the boys. Connor explores how a different mindset can change how he views past readings; Denks attempts to replicate Dr Gihan Jayaweera's "do happy" mantra whilst Jerome discusses how he is going to use the 'RAIN' method to reflect on experiences he faces over the coming weeks.

Further, the boys will be stepping out of their comfort zones to tackle activities that produce feelings of social anxiety to conquer their fears of judgement, shame, embarrassment and fear.

Let the ZOOPing begin!
