Kurt Fearnley's Tiny Island: Movember
When I was racing, every year I would treat myself to a cut-throat shave at a New York City barber on the 1st of Movember. Not for the 0.1 of a second aerodynamic advantage in the marathon two days later, but to kick-start my annual mo growth, helping to raise awareness and sometimes funds, for Movember, the leading charity changing the face of men's health. This Movember, I've pulled together three segments from previous episodes which deep-dive into some of the focus areas of Movember - in particular, mental health and suicide, and testicular cancer. If you haven't listened to my yarns with Osher Gunsberg, Drew Duggan and Craig Hamilton, this week's ep will give you a taste of their broader discussions. If you have, listen to this weeks ep again as a reminder of their stories and what we can do to help ourselves and others, and tell a mate about it too. We deep dive in these chats so a reminder if you're ever worried that someone's life is in immediate danger, call 000 or go directly to emergency services. And Lifeline is always available on 13 11 14.
