***Trigger warning***
Jack is the president of suicide prevention initiative #talk2mebro. He is passionate about ending the stigma around suicidal ideation and seeks to open lines of communication for those struggling around the world.  That being said, we talk openly about our own personal experiences, triage methods, and support strategies. I honestly feel like this is one of the most educational and profound episodes I've ever recorded, but please listen with caution, listen with an open heart and listen with an open mind.
Shan.

Bio
Jack Brown is an Australian Army veteran,  student of Psychology, President of the #talk2mebro mental health initiative and co-founder of Re-locatable Living. This week, Jack is with me live and in-person on my back deck to share his journey, experiences, challenges and hopes for the future. It’s a classic episode that clearly outlines suicide prevention strategies, the current state of men’s mental health,  combat sports, Tinder dates gone wrong and why The Office is better than Friends (but not Seinfeld).
Enjoy!

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.
