Alain Joubert is a 33-year-old South African/Canadian artist, international educator, and world traveler.

Alain graduated from York University, Toronto with a Bachelor's degree in Fine Arts and Education. He now continues to translate his passion by working as a teacher at a highly recognised sustainability-focused school in Bali.

Prior to moving to Bali, Alain founded the Chiniguichi Outpost sustainable eco-lodge in Ontario Canada.

Alain is a deep thinker whose main form of artistic expression is painting and drawing. Skills that he willingly assists in developing in his students.

In my opinion, Alain possesses views on our world that are honest and sometimes uncomfortable to hear. I was drawn to him immediately.

Alain is with me on this week’s episode to share his journey, experiences, challenges, and hopes for the future.

You'll find a particular kind of honesty in the conversations on Terrible. Happy, a podcast that sounds like a late-night chat in a backyard after a long day at the skatepark. Host Shan sits down with a rotating cast of characters from the Australian skateboarding scene and beyond, but the talk rarely stays on just tricks and terrain. It naturally veers into the messy, funny, and deeply human stuff that happens off the board: the struggles with fitness, the odd jobs that pay the bills, the mental health ups and downs, and the pure, alternative comedy of everyday life. This isn't a polished production; it's the raw audio of community, capturing the specific voices and stories that make this culture tick. Listeners will hear genuine interviews that feel more like catching up with an old mate, punctuated by the occasional chaos of THT Radio segments. It’s about finding the connection and the laughter in the grind, whether that's on four wheels or just trying to get through the week. The result is a uniquely Australian show that’s less about sports commentary and more about the shared, sometimes terrible, often happy reality of the people within it.
