  • Breath Guy and Naked Professor: Father Figures and Accessing Your Emotions
    Trying to connect with our fathers, engaging with our mental health, discovering new ways to practise a positive mental attitude, we discuss it all in this episode. This week, I am joined by Richie Bostock aka The Breath Guy and Ben Bidwell, aka The Naked Professor. Despite our differences in our backgrounds and upbringing we draw on so many similarities as we discuss our journeys to openness and why we think it's important for men to talk about this now.

  • Dane Baptiste || Masculinity and Heartbreak

    Comedian Dane Baptiste joins me and we talk about everything from fatherhood, matriarchal families, masculinity, mental health and love - and we have hella laughs on the way!


    Time To Talk is a place where men come together to discuss topics that don't get talked about enough, with vulnerability and openness at its core, to help get men (and eventually others) talking about things they claim to never speak about.



    Check out Dane on socials, and get tickets to his new show 2020 tour - 'The Chocolate Chip': https://sohotheatre.com/shows/dane-baptiste-chocolate-chip/
