At the age of 9 Ben McIntosh's life changed when his sister Grace was born into the world with Down Syndrome. Their incredibly close relationship and sense of humour spawned a career in Support Work for Ben and an Instagram and TikTok account to chronicle their jump scares, dancing and connection.
Then entered Zac Carley the Elvis obsessed, eyebrow shuffling accidental star who's resistance to wearing goggles while swimming and stunning new haircuts grew Ben's socials to over 1 million followers!
This episode they join Dylan Alcott and Angus O'Loughlin to share their rise to fame, breaking down bromance barriers and celebrating Support Workers.
