What have you changed your mind about? What did you unlearn? Can we actually be objective? Are you okay with being wrong? Why do so many of us live in echo chambers? Why are we so drawn to people who think like us? Is experience the best teacher? When is a bad outcome a good lesson? Some people will avoid this chat because it's long, but I think those of you who strap in might really enjoy it. This could be my favourite Tiff and Harps chat. Enjoy.

In boxing, Mick Hall has won a state title, two national titles and a world title. And while that's impressive, more impressive is that he's still fighting at almost 55. And maybe the most impressive thing is that he stepped into the ring for the first time at 49. I'm not suggesting any of you take up boxing, but i am highlighting the fact that we humans can still achieve, create, transform and learn at a high level, heading into and past our fifties. Along with Tiff, Mick and I cover lots of fa...

This episode is part coaching, part motivational presentation, part education session, part me thinking-out-loud and part me swearing either appropriately or inappropriately, depending on where you sit on the f**k scale. My observation over decades of working at the coalface of 'change' tells me that most people don't really understand or optimise their potential. In fact, not even close. Imagine having ten million dollars in the bank while living in poverty. Well, that's metaphoric equivalent I...

You get the job. Make the money. Lose the weight. Do the thing. Own the thing. Achieve the thing. Change the thing. Climb the mountain. And then what? Well, you achieved the goal - so now you're happy. Content. Satisfied. Nope, seems not. Not often, anyway. Maybe it's not about "there" (the destination) but rather, "getting there." Maybe it's about the feelings, growth, connections, relationship, purpose, learning, growth and experiences we have along the way? Maybe the summit is what we want bu...

Doctor Cam's back and this was more of an interesting chat between two blokes (I hope) than a back-and-forth 'interview', exploring a particular topic. We covered a lot of territory including the science, skills and f**k-ups of parenting (between us we have two kids, so definitely ignore me), how success doesn't always equal happiness (in fact, quite often), the elusive state of contentment, the ridiculousness of analysing the mind with the mind (the tool measuring itself), the determinants of p...

You know those people that you could listen to forever? Well for me, Dr. Matt Morgan is such a person. Like one of those "who would you invite to dinner if you could choose anyone" types. So interesting, so many good stories and such a good human. Also, a brilliant communicator (not always the case with brainiacs). This chat went far and wide from NDE's (near-death experiences) to participating in his own living funeral (sounds morbid but was fascinating), to what happens in the brain the moment...

Smart glasses that can video people without their consent or knowledge - super creepy and pervy and it's already happening. Let's put a stop to that sh*t! Patrick and Fritz the Wonder Dog (see image) are back and of course, this chat is a combination of interesting things, educational things and 'inappropriate for a podcast' things. We talk tech, the backlash around Al films, an EV with a one-thousand-kilometre range, general BS and lots more. Enjoy. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy infor...

This was a unique TYP experience which you may or may not vibe with. It was one of the hardest things I've done publicly and that was to be 'coached' live on the show by Bobby. To make it legitimate (and not some kind of role-play BS), I chose to totally step out of my hosting role and be as transparent, vulnerable and as authentic as I could be. Which was honestly f**king terrifying, knowing that thousands of people would hear my personal sh*t. I usually have an idea of how things will be recei...

Every time I record a podcast, and Melissa edits it (gaps, coughs, long pauses, etc.) I ask her, "what score do you give it?" because I want a simple, quick numerical evaluation of the chat. We have a mutual understanding of what the numbers mean (developed over eight years). She's never scored anything a '10' but she did score this episode a '9'. That's all I'm telling you. Enjoy.

Well, this episode was a ripper (he says humbly), Dr Jess was (is) a ripper and I think this might be a fave for some of you. We didn't go overboard on the "OCD, hoarding and anxiety" chat but we did open the conversational door on plenty of topics that are relevant for all of us. Enjoy. *BIO: Dr Jessica Grisham is a ground-breaking researcher and world-renowned expert on obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), hoarding, and anxiety.

Every morning, I ask myself a version of this question - "in terms of what I need to get done today, what is the optimal use of my time, energy and attention?" For this chat, Bobby, Tiff and I focus on the "energy" part of the question. It's true that many of us waste significant energy on things which provide us with a poor return on that energetic investment. That is, we focus on (obsess about?) things we can't really change or control, while investing little or no energy in the things we can....

Could the trauma you're experiencing now be the result of something that your grandmother went through decades ago - before you were even born? Could it be caused by something you didn't experience or have no knowledge of? According to today's guest, Mark Wolynn, the answer is yes. Mark is a leading expert in the field of inherited family trauma. He's the director of The Family Constellation Institute in the US and is renowned for his work that bridges epigenetics, neuroscience, and somatic heal...

Dr. Jeff is back bringing the heat, enlightening the masses, dropping the health bombs and sharing the love - as he does. This was another Q and A sesh, after our last one was very well received. This time we chatted about everything from plantar fasciitis, shockwave therapy, crappy spines, dodgy knees and frozen shoulders, through to reoccurring muscle tears, long covid, ageing intelligently, recovery and, off the back of Donna from Launceston's suggestion, "the fat-loss shit show." Enjoy. See ...

To be honest, I run out of descriptors to explain these fortnightly instalments because they're always the same but different. Same energy, silliness and inappropriate conversations, intersecting with a liberal dose of science, tech, latest news, weird human behaviour and this time, Patrick's brush with the seedy under belly of Ballan's criminal world. Lol. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This title might sound like stupid advice but the truth is we can't always "be ready" for every potential challenge, problem, variable and outcome when we step into a new goal, endeavour, situation or role. More often than not we don't really know WTF is coming our way when we start something new. Personally, if I had waited until I had all the requisite skills, knowledge, confidence and understanding to succeed, I'd still be standing at the starting line of virtually all of my goals and dreams ...

Having spent the majority of my adult life working in gyms, owning gyms, teaching PT's and Exercise Science students, working with elite teams and training thousands of humans from complete beginners to Olympians - with all kinds of goals, genetics, personalities, attitudes and reasons - I thought I might share a few of my observations regarding some of the things we don't do so well.

How does tech addiction actually work? Biochemically? Practically? Behaviourally? Is it an actual addiction like booze, drugs, porn and gambling, just a bad habit, or something else? What is the ever-evolving relationship between technology the phenomenal rise of mental health issues? Are there strategies, practical processes and tools we can use to make a dent in the problem, or maybe even better? Can we turn it around? This chat with Gillespo wasn't a "solution" or magic pill to an extensive, ...

A slightly different Bobby (and Tiff) episode this time around - way less philosophical, psychological and reflective than normal - and far more practical, physical and user-friendly (from a putting things into action perspective). In a nutshell, we spoke about our individual health protocols (exercise, food, sleep, lifestyle, etc.) and then more broadly about optimising our (your) physical potential - in what can be - an overwhelm of pseudoscience, mayhem, conflicting information and confusion....

At some stage of the TYP evolution, shy, introverted and courageous listener Kelly Smith somehow wrangled her way from one side of the microphone (off air) to the other side. And we're glad she did. Kelly brings a level of vulnerability, genuine curiosity and self-awareness to the conversation that's not always present on Planet Podcast. Enjoy.

Yes, it is. No, it's not. Sometimes. Depends. To whom? What's the context? Did they ask for it? Are you qualified to give it? Could your "good advice" be bad for them? What "works" for me, might be a catastrophe for you. Or vice-versa. What's your reason for giving the advice? Could it create more problems than solutions? Do they want it... or are you just supplying it? Is it welcomed or resented? Giving advice (and receiving it, for that matter) ain't that simple or straight forward - especiall...

This probably won't win any awards for podcasting excellence or educational mastery, but Tiff and I had fun chatting about how and why choosing pain, discomfort and uncertainty can lead to more comfort, confidence and calm, and less anxiety, overthinking and internal chaos.

This brief-ish solo episode is my wrap up to the mini (three-part) coaching series I've done over the last week or so, about all things mind, brain, body and more importantly, self-awareness, self-regulation and self-actualisation (becoming the 'you' - you want to become).

Back for some coaching around a couple of universally-relevant questions that I believe we should all - not only ask ourselves - but more importantly, endeavour to understand deeply and operationalise (do something practical with) in our own lives. For me and countless people I have worked with, these are game changers. Enjoy See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Every time I go into this podcast threesome, I psych myself to deliver a high-level, professional and helpful insight into the world of technology. It never works. Of course, I attribute the subsequent mayhem to Tiff and Patrick. And of course, shy wallflower Craig has no say. I'm just a helpless victim in their conversational hijacking. If you're good at visualising stories, this'll episode will either make you turn it off or make you send it to ten friends. Enjoy. See omnystudio.com/listener f...

Even when you know "what to do" (theoretically) in a volatile, challenging and/or emotional situation - especially with loved ones - good luck with the "execution" of that knowledge when your prefrontal cortex gets hijacked by your amygdala. That is, when your emotions take over your body and your ability to think clearly and be the calm in the chaos goes out the metaphoric window. Depending on the situation, I could be relatively smart right down to being the dumb-arse in the corner crying into...

When it comes to the “good and bad fats” story and how it all relates to cholesterol, heart disease and all-cause mortality, whose funding what research? What’s being revealed in the research that doesn’t make it to the research papers? And why? Well, it seems I there may have been a few omissions, blatant lies, misdirects (as in magic), manipulation of data and let’s be honest, scientific fuckery. Enjoy.

Weird to say, but I enjoyed this solo episode where I essentially took on the role of coach for those of you wanting a little coaching and smidgeon of tough love. As has been pointed out many times, I'm not for everyone. Some will love this, some won't, some will lean in and take action, others won't but what I endeavoured to do was to talk to you as though it was literally a 'you and me' coaching session. Enjoy.

Okay, so I'm gonna critique this episode for you. From where I sat... the first twenty minutes (or so) with Dr. Cam was an interesting back-and-forth chit-chat about the human condition (are we in charge of our feelings or are they in charge of us - type stuff) and I'd give it a 7. Solid, not mind-blowing. But for the rest of the show, we took a left turn and explored the way our environment (and all the things in it) affect our physical, mental and emotional health. This particular thirty minut...

This chat with Dietician and Exercise Physiologist Kate Save was a meandering affair where we dropped breadcrumbs of information, education, psychology and sociology along the way. We spoke about the very common state of doing life on a kind of "auto-pilot", even when it's consistently not working. We discussed some ideas and strategies to escape the unfulfilling Groundhog Day that keeps so many of us trapped in stagnation and frustration. We also chatted about calories vs. nutrients, function (...

What's the gap between who you are and where you are - metaphorically, literally, physically, financially, professionally, socially - and who and where you want to be in the future?
