We’re all imperfect.

    Ryan Was At The Bondi Terrorist Attack

    Say hello to 2026. We are joined, officially, by The Raw Dog (unmedicated Hugh), as we get an update on where he’s at on his ADHD medication journey. Exploring some New Years Resolutions of Hugh’s, and how he might be able to work to achieve them, we hear a story dubbed ‘Hall of Fame Hugh’ by Ryan. And then we put our hair up (bit of a deep cut to season 1), as Ryan talks to Hugh and Josh about his experience of being in Bondi during the terrorist attack in December 2025. 🥸 Which Imperfects Host Are You Quiz? - https://tally.so/r/Xx4PEO 🫖Other Imperfects episodes mentioned in this episode - Claudia Karvan - Love, Her Way - https://bit.ly/4r524XJ

    Dr Lucy Hone - A Life Worth Grieving

    Two cataclysmic events have shaped Dr Lucy Hone’s relationship with grief, and resilience. 💌Join 5,000+ people getting our takeaways and favourite moments from this episode in our weekly newsletter - http://bit.ly/45NyQDy Today in the Academy of Imperfection, we welcome Dr Lucy Hone. Dr Lucy’s work focuses on making sense of the senseless, and helping others to do the same. As a legitimate expert in grief, resilience and wellbeing, Dr Lucy is able to blend the science with her own lived experience. This episode explores living losses (divorce, estrangement, infertility), grief comparison, as well as the research around post-traumatic growth. Guided by questions from Dr Lucy’s latest book, How will I ever get through this?, Hugh, Josh and Ryan ask Dr Lucy why grief feels so lonely, how you are supposed to accept loss, and will you ever be happy again, amongst others. This is a special one. 0:00 – An Unsuspecting Saturday Morning 12:11 – Grief comparison 21:25 – How am I supposed to accept this? 31:14 – How do you keep hope alive? 35:48 – Why do I feel so lonely? 50:20 – Will I ever be happy again? 56:36 – Letting the other children live 1:03:44 – Do you know your strengths? 1:09:12 – Who and what do you want to live for? 1:14:59 – Who and what is good in your world?

    Claudia Karvan - Love, Her Way

    Stop. Everything. Now. It’s Claudia Karvan day. 💌Join 5,000+ people getting our takeaways and favourite moments from this episode in our weekly newsletter - http://bit.ly/45NyQDy An icon of the screen, and of the heart, Claudia is Australian entertainment royalty. Claudia’s life itself feels like a movie (no one else grew up in a nightclub, did they?) and it was an absolute privilege to listen to all the lessons that she has learnt along the way. With incredible grace, Claudia talks to Hugh, Ryan and Josh about playing the long game during divorce, and how she came to the realisation that it wasn’t up to her to fix everything. Claudia speaks openly about separating the person from the diagnosis, and how, and why, she thinks so often about death. This is one for the highlight reel.

    Esther Perel's Relationship Advice for Josh

    Do you remember the time we had THE Esther Perel on the podcast? We certainly do. This week on A Little More Imperfects, Josh revisits that interview; what he learnt about prioritising quality time, and whether he has put those learnings into practice. And then, it’s just another wacky day in Hugh’s life, and he definitely-absolutely-couldn’t’ve gotten scammed because “she was just so lovely”. PSA (specifically for Hugh van Cuylenburg): If someone calls up and asks for your credit card number, it’s usually a red flag. And the tiniest of updates. Dare we say, love is in the air? We love you the most (don’t tell anyone else). 🫖Other Imperfects episodes mentioned on this episode Esther Perel - Let’s Be Better Lovers - https://bit.ly/4a2Jvwf Is Ryan having kids?

    Soul Searching Summer - Ryan’s TV Show

    Ryan’s got news. Well, past-Ryan had news, and now future-Ryan is going to reflect on how present-day-Ryan is currently feeling about said news. Get it? It’s reflecting on a reflection about a rejection. Today we’re giving you two for the price of none, and bringing you two of the most memorable moments from our subscriber based show A Little More Imperfects. With both segments focusing on wildest dreams, Hugh, Ryan and Josh explore how to navigate regret when you’re not at your best, and how to show yourself compassion and love when your dreams are, well, crushed. Also, we ask Hugh what happened to him today.
