    5 With A Digger. Walk & Talk

    Episode 35 and I'm joined by Jordan and Chris from Walk & Talk. Although these two gentleman aren't veterans, their organization is based around men's mental health. We recorded this episode after one of their 3 weekly men's walk and talk events, which i was invited to attend and speak at Infront of just under 100 men in Rockhampton. The Walk & Talk organization strongly aligns with the morals and goals of the 5WAD podcast and it was great to sit back and have a beer and a yarn and plan some future collaborations!
