The Shed Wireless (Men’s Health Week Special – 2022)

 

A podcast for Shedders.

 

Us blokes can be a bit lacklustre when it comes to being proactive about our health and wellbeing. Our special Men’s Health Week edition of The Shed Wireless brings you conversations about breaking down the barriers to seeking help.

 

If you were a rugby league fan in the 70’s and 80’s you might remember the name Wayne Wigham. Well these days, Wayne’s career has taken him from the footy field to Black Dog Institute as a speaker and educator. Wayne and JPY have an honest chat about men, mental health and seeking help.

 

In Ask the Doc AMSA Men’s Health Project Officer Stuart Torrance and Healthy Male’s Associate Professor Tim Moss discuss five barriers that prevent men from seeking information and support when it comes to their health and wellbeing.
