Ep 2 is massive! Exclusive chat with Blake's long-term friend, former SA Opposition Leader David Speirs. He's had to persevere through a difficult 12-month period and is coming out the other side of a turbulent period for himself personally. He was good enough join the show to talk through early life and his move to Australia from rural Scotland, becoming a local councillor and then an MP, the pressures that came with being the Opposition Leader, and difficult times both inflicted and self-inflicted by his own admission.

We also discuss the path back to restoring his mental health once again, and the exceptional causes he’s chosen to support through a group called the Kokoda Centurions; raising crucial funds for the Breakthrough Mental Health Foundation and The Man Cave, causes both supporting men's health & wellbeing.
