Jarryd Rees is a skateboarder, videographer, photographer, short-film maker, youth worker and co-founder of Vinyl.Ltd skateboarding video production company. In his role as a youth worker, Jarryd provides essential care to young people who have a history of challenging behaviour and have been displaced, or simply have nowhere else to go. He supports them by being available to listen, converse and show kindness. Ultimately, he provides the fundamentals that most of us take for granted, yet so essential to building self-esteem in an individual. This is not a skateboarding podcast, this is a podcast about humans. The human journey if you will. But I must admit, it was so nice to sit down and talk-story with a pure skateboarder like Jarryd. He is a man who understands the value and power of being in his mid 20s. In this week's episode, Jarryd is with me 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.
