This week Michael chats to Joenas, Mr Vicbears 2024 about the Underwear Charity Auction happening at the Laird Hotel to raise money for Pride Foundation Australia. Supported by Thorne Harbour, the event will see local bear-lebrities strip down to their jocks and auction their garments off to the crowd!

Rainbow Connection Coordinator David Kavanagh also tells us about this program that connects older LGBTIQ+ people with younger volunteers for social connection.

Every week on Well, Well, Well, hosts Michael, Cal, Rachel, and Jacinta pull up a chair for a conversation that feels both essential and familiar. This isn't just another health show; it's a dedicated space focusing on the specific realities of LGBTIQA+ life, from mental wellbeing and sexual health to everyday fitness and community care. The discussions are grounded, tackling topics like HIV with nuance and exploring what holistic health truly means across our rainbow communities. You'll hear the latest information, but more importantly, you'll find relatable perspectives and honest talk that resonates. Produced as a service by JOY 94.9 in partnership with Thorne Harbour Health, the Well, Well, Well podcast extends that community spirit beyond the radio broadcast. It’s where practical advice meets personal understanding, creating a resource that feels like it’s genuinely for us, by us. Tune in for episodes that blend expertise with empathy, always aiming to support and strengthen the wellbeing of everyone under the rainbow.
