***THIS IS 70 WEEKLY EPISODES***
Kristyan Stjerne is a surfer, yogi, captivating artist, muse and purveyor of good vibes and kindness. He simply beams. Kristyan was a previous guest dating all the way back to episode #51 in which we recorded in the dark, by the cliffs of Uluwatu in Bali, on the evening of Nyepi- the Balinese new year. Moreover, this was literally a couple of days before the industrial and commercial world broke into a pandemic of hysteria in which world leaders seamlessly capitalised, closing boarders, applying curfews and imposing social distancing regulations...all under the cloak of a necessary “new normal”. Enmeshed with little resistance from a fearfully obedient, confused, face-mask wearing and hand-sanitising public, the result for many is economic ruin, loss of livelihood, mental illness, family breakdown, poverty and starvation at global levels not seen before. All while a mainstream-media monkey rides joyfully on the back of it all. In this week's episode, Krystian is with me to check-in, share his 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.
