Yeah, It’s All Good: Men Keeping Themselves Well
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Why do men, especially in rural areas, struggle to talk about their problems? What’s standing in the way? Are the men of today okay, and how do they keep themselves well? This was a candid conversation about masculinity, society, health, wealth, life, death and everything in between, featuring writers and personalities Matt Heath and Paddy Gower; Federated Farmers President and YOLO Farmer Wayne Langford; and Irish farmer and writer John Connell. Phil Quin asked the questions.
This episode was recorded at the 2025 Featherston Booktown Karukate Festival.
