EP 22","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":4338,"description":"Australia is in a cost-of-living crunch, businesses are going under every week, and our communities are carrying the mental health load. So what if looking after ourselves didn't have to be so bloody serious?\n\nIn this episode of MATESHIP MATTERS! The Seriously Funny Community Wellbeing Show, host Homer Papantonio sits down with sleep scientist Dr Jemma King and Kokoda trek leader Aidan Grimes, with cardiologist Dr Ross Walker joining in a pre-recorded segment. It's a taste of the live show touring Queensland and New Zealand in 2027. Each speaker gets a poetic introduction from impressionist Danny McMaster, doing his best Morgan Freeman, Arnie and Dr Phil.\n\nIn this episode: • Why your thoughts turn into chemicals that keep you awake, and how laughter and oxytocin help • The \"anti-anxiety factory\" in your muscles, and why sitting still can feel like depression • Loneliness, sleep and the case for social connection • What 30 years and 140 crossings of the Kokoda Track teach about resilience, hope and looking after your mates • Why kids need to climb trees (and sometimes fall out of them) • The young soldiers of the 39th Battalion, 26 August 1942 • Dr Ross Walker's five keys to health, ending with the most important drug on the planet: happiness • Dopamine, phones and why chasing happiness can backfire\n\nHumour. Hope. Social Connection. More Than a Show. A Movement.\n\nBring the show to your community: https://seriouslyfunnywellbeing.com Bookings and partnerships: Homer Papantonio, homer@corporateimpostors.com.au\n\nThis episode talks about mental health and suicide.
