This week Brian and Harrison kick things off by re-hashing some
recent family events, talk through some AFL news, as well as some
other sporting issues making headlines recently. Next, the boys are
joined by AFL legend & mental health advocate, Wayne Schwass.
Wayne played 282 games across his illustrious, 14-year AFL career,
amassing; 282 games, 3x B&Fs, a premiership (1996), an
All-Australian, NMFC Team of the Century and NMFC Hall of Fame.
Despite his many great accomplishments on the field, it is Wayne's
personal journey with mental health and the work that he is now
subsequently doing in the community that is most impactful and
admirable to us. As the founder of PukaUp, (a social enterprise
dedicated to mental health, emotional wellbeing and suicide
prevention) Wayne is starting the conversation and helping to
change the narrative and stigma surrounding mental health. This is
the most raw, emotional and sentimental conversation we've had on
the podcast, not only referencing discussions around mental health
broadly but also the sometimes 'complicated' relationship between
father and son. We are grateful for Wayne's dedication to his
calling, his bravery and his incredible perspective. We're glad he
has found his purpose. This episode is brought to you by: Hard
