S1 Ep 1358#1358 Building Confidence - Harps
People think I'm confident, and with some things, I am. With others, l'm not. Like many of you, self-doubt, crappy self-esteem and a lack of confidence have been reoccurring themes on Planet Craig. In some environments and with some tasks, l'm calm, confident and capable. But change the situation and I can easily be the over-thinking, self-doubting, self-sabotaging ex-fat kid from Latrobe Valley. In this solo episode, I talk about the challenge of building confidence and some of the tools and strategies that have proven to be effective for me. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1357#1357 Optimising Your Workouts - Harps & Tiff
In this freestyle and rambling chat, Tiff and I talk about how we might optimise (or potentially, waste) our time, energy, genetics and resources, when it comes to the ever-present challenge of exercising effectively, efficiently and safely. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1356#1356 Can We Be Open-Minded? - Harps
We like to think we're open-minded and objective because it makes us feel good about ourselves and of course, nobody wants to be seen as closed-minded, biased or unteachable. But in a world where we all have pre-existing beliefs, ideas, values, likes, dislikes, biases (yes, even you), preferences, programming, standards, perspectives and opinions, is it possible to be truly open-minded, even if we want to be?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1355#1355 We Love Johnny - Johnny Ruffo
Hi Team. Over the last two weeks, lots of people have spoken to me about Johhny and more than a few have asked about re-sharing his TYP episode as a kind-of tribute. To be honest, I wasn't really sold on the idea because I didn't want to seem disrespectful or inappropriate in any way. So as always, I did some self-examination and considered my intention. And that was to once again share with you a beautiful, funny, courageous and brilliant young man who made ten lifetimes of impact, in his one brief stint here on Planet Earth. So enjoy our all-time most cheeky guest. Love and hugs to you all. Craig. xxSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1354#1354 Who-T-F Is Tom Noske - Tom Noske (PT2)
Turns out Tom Noske is kind-of a big deal. Well, he's definitely on the way. Let's go with, big-ish. He's a content creator, commercial filmmaker, endurance athlete, storyteller, entrepreneur, and inspiration for over half a million online followers. He's also a good bloke and I loved meeting him. Among other things, we spoke about problem-solving (one of life's most important skills), creating a brand and online presence, understand the mind and needs of a customer, the psychology of spending and perceived value, navigating life with dyslexia, how he earned over $250,000(AU) last month, training for an Ironman, being hyper-focused, being authentic in a sea of fakes and pretenders, building confidence and competence, and much more. Enjoy. You'll love him. tomnoske.store See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1352#1352 Don't Trust Rita - David Gillespie
Rita Crundwell is the former Comptroller (accounting officer) and Treasurer of Dixon, Illinois (population 15,000), who from 1983 to 2012 committed, what is believed to be the largest municipal fraud in U.S. history, embezzling nearly $90 million (AUS). On this episode of TYP David and I (okay, mainly him) unpack this fascinating story about the poster-girl for Psychopathy. Did I mention $90 f***ing million, while working for the local council!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1351#1351 The Never-Ending Experiment - Harps
What's your life telling you? What are your results saying? What's working and what's not? Are you a conscious driver (of your life) or are you an unconscious passenger? For most of my adult years, my life has been an ongoing experiment.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1350#1350 A Warrior Mindset - Nick Lavery
Sure, it sounds like a cheesey, bullsh*tty title but it's an accurate representation. This dude is a modern-day warrior, with a mindset that can only be developed in the middle of extreme adversity, discomfort and pressure. Nick Lavery is an active-duty member of The United States Army Special Forces. Commonly known as Green Berets, the Special Forces perform critical missions including direct action, counterinsurgency, foreign internal defence, special reconnaissance, and unconventional warfare. Although Nick sustained life-threatening injuries in combat, resulting in an above-the-knee amputation of his leg, he not only remained in the Army, he returned to his Special Forces Detachment and continues conducting combat operations to this day. I genuinely loved chatting with Nick and hope you enjoy the conversation too.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1349#1349 Is Arguing Stupid? - Harps
Sometimes I'm like a podcasting version of a Labrador puppy. All over the place. Trying to explore everything all at once. So many things to do (and chew on), so little time. My intention going into this totally unscripted and mostly unplanned solo episode, was to talk about the futility and potential harm of arguing. Not the healthy intellectual, respectful kind of debate but rather, the unhealthy, emotional screaming at each other (type of) exchange. Well, I did that, but I also went off on seventeen different tangents and got quite deep and philosophical towards the end. Somebody asked me yesterday if I'm scared of running out of things to talk about on the show. I told them, I'm scared of not having enough time to scratch the surface. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1348#1348 What Is Caspering? - Patrick Bonello
Patrick is back talking all things tech, human optimisation, virtual reality, the Beatles 'new' Al assisted song, why we should start recharging batteries used in the home, how China is stopping its drivers from falling asleep at the wheel (it's weird), how 'Caspering' is replacing ghosting (don't ask) and lots more. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1347#1347 Living Bravely Or Barely? - Travis Bell
Trav Bell and I have shared similar journeys, beginning in the fitness world and ending up in the professional speaking space. Sure, he’s younger, better looking, more charismatic and more successful than me but other than that, peas in a fucking pod. This was fun. thebucketlistguy.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1346#1346 Herding Cognitive Cats - Harps
Trying to manage my mind is often like trying to herd cognitive cats. Painful. Pointless. Hilarious. You? If you're like me, your mind can be a source of pain and pleasure, chaos and calm, fascination and boredom, focus and distraction, and that's all before breakfast. Your mind is 'You HQ’.. your operational headquarters. It is the platform from where you view, process, interpret and understand the world around you. In this freestyle solo episode, I discuss the ever-present challenge of trying to understand, manage and optimise the human mind. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1345#1345 Success Ain't Pretty - Tara Jarrett
Tara Jarrett and I have been friends for thirty-something years. I emceed her wedding to Russ (a TYP regular), I’m Godfather to her son Mitch, I spoke at her gorgeous dad’s funeral, we owned a gym together and over the years, we have been through a lot. Which is why I’m super proud of her capacity to repeatedly dream a dream and then turn that theoretical ‘something’ into a real-world commercial success story, while simultaneously being a great mum, wife and daughter. Her latest business venture has caught fire and it looks like, by the end of 2025, there’ll be more than fifty of her unique centres, Australia wide. To find out what it is, you’ll have to tune in.

S1 Ep 1344#1344 The Neurosurgeon Who Went To Heaven - Dr. Eben Alexander
This episode will probably ruffle a few feathers, challenge a few beliefs, inspire a few people, confuse a few people, give hope to some, and maybe arouse some curiosity. For those of us with pre-existing thoughts, beliefs and ideas (you and me), it can be difficult to consider information, concepts and stories which don't fit in to our model of the world and how we think things work. Nonetheless, I did my best to open my mind, overcome my programming and conditioned thinking, be fully present and to respectfully and curiously consider what Dr. Eben Alexander had to share. He definitely challenged some of my thinking but to be honest, much of what he had to share resonated strongly with me. I enjoyed this chat and it left me with much to ponder. *Bio: Academic neurosurgeon Dr. Eben Alexander III, whose career includes decades as a physician and associate professor at Harvard Medical School and revered teaching hospitals, was once staunchly committed to the materialist world view - the belief that the physical world is all that exists. His scientific belief system was altered by his 2008 transcendental near-death experience (NDE), an odyssey into another realm during a week-long coma. Despite a bleak medical prognosis, Dr. Alexander awoke to make an inexplicable return to full health. His medical case and recovery were validated in the peer-reviewed 'Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease'. Since his NDE, Dr. Alexander has been reconciling his rich spiritual experience with quantum physics, cosmology and the philosophy of mind. Dr. Alexander speaks around the world to educate about the role that consciousness plays in wellness, healing and recovery. ebenalexander.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1343#1343 Why We're Sh*t At Connection & Communication - Harps
Effective communication and connection is dependent on getting several things right. There are numerous crucial ingredients in the 'connection and communication recipe’ and in this episode, I explore - what I believe to be - the most important component; understanding others. Not necessarily agreeing, aligning or condoning... just understanding how they think, feel and behave (and why). Understanding people who don't think (behave, live, communicate) like you, is an interpersonal superpower. l’ve never seen a relationship with poor communication and/or connection (any kind of relationship) that's healthy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1342#1342 From Zero To Success - Julie Mathers
Julie Mathers is funny, super smart, down to earth, purpose-driven and although it sounds totally cliche, inspirational. It's rare that I chat with someone l've never met and instantly, it feels like we've been friends for years. Julie has that skill, that personality, that emotional intelligence and that genuine drive to connect with others. Apart from the fact that she is a highly successful and award-winning entrepreneur (she owns Flora and Fauna, Snuggle Hunny and Nourish Life), she's also a mum (of two), a wife (of one) and the lowest maintenance podcast guest of all time.

S1 Ep 1341#1341 The Back, Crack & Sack Wax - Dr. Scott Lyons
Dr. Scott Lyons believes I have what it takes to make it in Drag. As in, Drag Queen. I suspect there'll be some trimming, manicuring, waxing and tucking (don't picture that) before my debut but with his coaching and support, I believe I can pull it off. So to speak. Before Scott was a Psychologist, Author, Researcher and Doctor of Osteopathy (quite the combo), he performed professionally as a Drag Queen to pay his way through University (College). I love that story. This conversation went far and wide (clearly), but we did manage to have a serious and fascinating chat about the what, why, how and healing of trauma. I love my job and I love that I get the opportunity to listen, learn and laugh with brilliant, generous people like Scott. drscottlyons.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1340#1340 How Supermarkets Trick Us - David Gillespie
Trying to get David Gillespie's approval (one of my many pointless pursuits), is exhausting. Just when I think I'll get the Gillespie tick, he pulls the rug out from under my optimistic feet. And while I naively thought my new choice of mayo would impress him, it didn't. Sigh.Fortunately for you, he does give us a list of healthier options. We also chat about the ten things he might actually buy from a supermarket, how the layout of supermarkets is an exercise in manipulation, the low-down on soy products, deceptive and misleading food packaging, the genesis story around RDI's (recommended daily intakes), the ever-growing list of 'milks' on the shelf and lots more.

S1 Ep 1339#1339 Human Thinking, Doing & Being - Derek Sivers
Like the myriad of philosophers, psychologists, stoics, gurus, researchers and deep thinkers who have preceded him, Derek Sivers has been observing, analysing and explaining human thinking, human doing and human being, for years. He is an out-of-the-box thinker, and I loved our conversation. Derek is (and has been) a successful musician, entrepreneur, creative, author, speaker and philanthropist. Interestingly, these days Derek gives away pretty much everything he earns. Enjoy. *His best-selling book is called ‘How to Live: 27 conflicting answers and one weird conclusion.’ sive.rsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1338#1338 Reality, Consciousness & The Impossible Mind - Professor Philip Goff
The trouble with trying to understanding consciousness (and more broadly, the mind), is that we can't see it, touch it, measure it, or quantify it. And in a field which is largely quantitatively driven (science), the science of the consciousness, is a source of great debate, disagreement, divergence and let's be honest, confusion. How can we observe, analyse and measure a non-physical thing? I loved this chat with Professor Philip Goff, who is a world-renowned philosopher, author and consciousness researcher at Durham University, UK (England's 3rd oldest university), who spends most of his time trying to work out the ultimate nature of reality and other fascinating shit (that last bit is not in his bio). Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1337#1337 Busy-Brain Syndrome - Dr. Hannah Korrel
Dr. Hannah is back wrapping up our ten-part series on the brain. This time we talk about trying make sense of our busy brain and the ever-present challenge of trying to find some calm, clarity and focus in the middle of our overthinking mind. Enjoy. @nobullpsychSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1336#1336 WTF Is Grey Area Drinking? - Sarah Rusbatch
So, not a teetotaller and not an alcoholic but you still have a propensity to do dumb things with booze and wake up regularly feeling like complete shite? Well, you might just be a grey area drinker. Yep, it's a real thing. Sarah Rusbatch is a Grey Area Drinking Coach, Author and Key-Note speaker sharing her journey to sobriety and the impact of alcohol on mental health to global audiences. She is the face behind Perth's growing Alcohol-Free Movement, a brilliant communicator and a great storyteller. Even as a life-long non-drinker, I found this chat fascinating and insightful. Enjoy. sarahrusbatch.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1335#1335 What's Not Working (For You)? - Harps
We Earthlings have a propensity to do things that don’t work and for some reason, keep doing them; with our lifestyle, finances, health, relationships, personal habits, diet, social behaviour and more. And despite the overwhelming evidence that our current operating system is broken, we often stay in a pattern of thinking, choosing and doing that keeps us trapped in a prison of our own making. If that sounds like you, tune in.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1334#1334 One Day At The Airport.. - Mike Elrington
Mike Elrington is an Australian singer-songwriter and guitarist who recently introduced himself to me at the airport, informing me he was a listener (of TYP) and a fan. And now, after meeting him and hearing his music, I'm also a listener and a fan (of him and his music). I honestly believe Mike is an undiscovered musical gift to the world. He writes, sings and plays from the heart and is wildly talented. Chatting with him, I suspected there was an interesting back-story, a few life lessons, some laughter and tears and selfishly, a good podcast to be recorded. I was right and this is it. Enjoy. mikeelrington.com@mikeelringtonSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1333#1333 It Started So Well... - Patrick Bonello
There was a moment in this episode when the entire conversation came to an abrupt standstill because Patrick revealed something the world didn't need to know. I was literally left to fill dead air because he and Tiff lost their collective shit and left me hanging. Nonetheless, we didn't edit it out and it's definitely one of the funnier moments in TYP history. If you want to see the actual video footage, you can find it on my Insta. Apart from that shenanigans, we spoke about why EV's (electric vehicles) may not be the saviour we imagined, the potential therapeutic benefits for kids with ADHD using old-school typewriters, diesel generators powering electric charging stations in the outback (not even joking), a new fibre that can optionally cool or heat the wearer, a new treatment for hoarders, dating apps and ghosting, self-flying air-taxis (zero chance I'm getting in that), the one time Patrick kissed a girl and lots more. genesisfx.com.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1332#1332 Dear Food, We Need To Talk - Matty Lansdown
Food and I have always had an interesting relationship. And by interesting, I mean anything ranging from healthy to destructive. In this very-relevant (for many) conversation, Nutritionist Matty Lansdown and I discuss the myriad of psychological, emotional, physical and practical challenges of navigating life with anything ranging from disordered eating, all the way through to a life-threatening eating disorder.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1331#1331 Should We Protect Our Kids From Discomfort? - Harps & Tiff
The other night on the news, there was a story about banning the 'beep test' from schools because it made (some) kids nervous and uncomfortable. Fear of physical discomfort. And comparison. And embarrassment. And anxiety. And while I (kind-of) get it, I also thought about how all those things (discomfort, embarrassment, comparison, fear, anxiety) also exist in the spheres of academic performance, exams, social media, sporting performance, school friendships, social groups and lots more. And for grown-ups (us ex-children), these things are an unavoidable pert of the human experience. If we constantly shield our kids from discomfort in all its forms, are we protecting them or taking away an opportunity to develop resilience, understanding, confidence and personal power? Of course, "it depends" is the right answer and yes, there are a myriad of variables but nonetheless, it’s worth considering. As an ex-fat (obese) kid, I truly understand the aversion to beep tests but at the same time, I think we need to find a way to help prepare our kids for a reality beyond childhood, where mum and dad aren't there to constantly make things comfortable, convenient and safe; a practical reality where life doesn't care about an individual's feelings, fear, discomfort, embarrassment, anxiety or results. It's not an easy fix (of course) but it's probably worth a chat.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1330#1330 Surrounded By Idiots - Thomas Erikson
Thomas Erikson is a speaker, educator, expert in human behaviour and one of the biggest selling Swedish authors of all time. While he has written six books, his biggest seller (Surrounded by Idiots) has sold somewhere in the ballpark of 8-10 million copies (he's not sure), been translated into almost sixty languages and sold in over 100 countries. This was a fun chat and I think you'll enjoy it. *Thomas's new book is called 'Surrounded by Energy Vampires: How to Slay the Time, Joy, and Soul Suckers in Your Life.' surroundedbyidiots.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1329#1329 Meet Our New Intern - Maddie Bond
21 year-old Maddie (Maddison) has arrived at TYP Central to bring down the average age of the team. Understandably, this is her first ever chat on a podcast and let's just say that her debut on a mic was a significant improvement on mine. Among other things, we talk about her role at TYP, lessons learned from following me around to speaking gigs, working alongside a dinosaur, training her 183 cm body for its first marathon (ex-basketballer), the pressure on young people to look a certain way, growing up without a father (her dad Ashley passed away when she was one), growing up in the country (where she still lives), working out without becoming obsessed and lots more.

S1 Ep 1326#1326 Reading The Room - Harps & Tiff
If you want to create better interactions, and interpersonal outcomes with others (friends, family, strangers), I think you will enjoy this chat. How do we create meaningful connection with an audience of 1 or a 100? How do we share our thoughts, ideas and messages in a way which resonates with the person or persons with whom we're trying to connect? What does 'reading the room' mean? What is a 'warm audience'? And a cold one? Can we 'warm up' a cold audience? In this episode, Tiff and I discuss the myriad of variables that influence the quality (and outcomes) of our communication experiences. We also talk about the propensity we humans have to hate being wrong. Especially when our identity is intertwined with a certain idea, belief or practice. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1325#1325 What If Addiction Is The Goal? - David Gillespie
Are some organisations strategically trying to create addictive products, knowing that the consumer’s pain is their commercial gain? That's a rhetorical question; of course they are. Old Gillespo never disappoints and this time, he definitely delivered. Among other things, we had a fascinating conversation about how a nasal decongestant in the 1930's (which was essentially speed) became an amazingly effective treatment, for what would later (in history) be known as ADHD, and why giving over-stimulated and badly-behaved kids a stimulant somehow made them calm, focused and significantly better students, almost instantly. We also chatted about the modern-day equivalents and how they are derailing, not only our kids but also, our grown-ups too. Oh, and did I mention that some corporations are making a shit-ton of money? Enjoy. davidgillespie.orgSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1324#1324 What Is Happiness? - Dr. Tim Sharp
This was a fun, relevant and timely conversation about something we all want. But WTF is happiness? Is it the same thing for different people? Is it a smart goal? Or is it the byproduct of a smart goal? Or maybe, something else? What is the relationship between work and happiness? Socialisation happiness? Physical health and happiness? What's the difference between contentment and happiness? Joy and happiness? Do we need to feel sadness to appreciate happiness? Do our genetics impact our capacity for happiness? Can we measure it? All these questions and more are explored in this conversation with Dr Tim Sharp. *Tim is an internationally renowned leader in the field of Positive Psychology, a sought-after Speaker and Facilitator, Consultant and Coach, Writer and Podcaster, Spokesperson and Brand Ambassador. He also has three degrees in psychology (including a Ph.D.) and an impressive record as an academic, clinician and coach. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1323#1323 The Great Anti-Ageing Scam - Harps
There’s a lot of misinformation, marketing, deception, pseudoscience and less be honest, bullshit, when it comes to the (globally-huge) business of anti-ageing. This episode is me talking about that. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1322#1322 Is That An Alien At The Door? - Harps & Patrick
Patrick (our resident) geek is back and this time, we talk about schools which are banning mobile phones and seeing sociological and mental health benefits in their kids (not surprising), a possible supplement which might improve Alzheimer's, why phone scrolling on the crapper is potentially bad for your health, the gaslighting origin story (and what it actually is), a home security company that's offering a million dollars to anyone capturing an alien on film via their camera-equipped doorbells (pretty sure their money is safe), the gene-based eating plan (personalised nutrition) and lots more.

S1 Ep 1321#1321 Your Cognitive Diet - Harps
Just like your body, your mind needs to be nourished. Fed. Stimulated. And consciously or not, for better or worse, we're always feeding it something. Sadly, many of are constantly filling our mind with crap. Cognitive junk food. Stuff that's bad for our mental health. Stuff that makes us more fearful, anxious and insecure. In this solo episode, I talk about the idea of consciously creating and implementing a cognitive diet, in order to make your mind a healthier 'place' to live. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1320#1320 What Is Your Body Telling You? - Lisa Tamati (PT2)

S1 Ep 1318#1318 The Boy From Oz - Todd McKenney
This episode is a reboot of a chat I had with Todd a while back. What am I going to talk to the grumpy judge from Dancing with the Stars about? I wondered. The bloke who wrote and starred in The Boy from Oz? I wondered. The bloke who starred in 42nd Street, The Pirates of Penzance, Camelot, La Cage aux Folles, Singin' in the Rain, Priscilla Queen of the Desert (the musical) and Baz Luhrmann's film, Strictly Ballroom? Well, the answer is.. plenty. We spoke a lot and laughed a lot. He’s funny, real and loves dogs (big tick). Of course, he’s a talented, successful and well-known performer but more than that, Todd McKenney is a genuinely interesting bloke who’s done a sh*t-load, is a brilliant story-teller (no surprise), is great to chat with and I absolutely loved meeting him.

S1 Ep 1317#1317 I'm Starting A Cult - Harps & Tiff
Nah, not really. But sorta, kinda, maybe. I had a very clear and weird dream last night and that weirdness was the central theme for my discussion with Tiff. Before the weirdness happened, we spoke about the famous Australian Singer-Songwriter who's written a song about Tiff and is using her image on the front of his new album! We also chatted about, who I think could be the best all-round athletes (from a specific sport) in the world. Enjoy. And get your kaftan ready.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S1 Ep 1315#1315 Toxic At Work - David Gillespie
Our resident Lawyer, Researcher, Author, Entrepreneur and Shit-Stirrer David Gillespie is back, and this time we talk about his new book 'Toxic at Work', the healthiest chips at the supermarket (I use the term 'healthiest' quite loosely), how to be a nutritional detective (and figure out exactly what's in food products), and we also compare notes with our respective public speaking experiences.

S1 Ep 1312#1312 Escaping Thought - John Purkiss
Can we really 'not think'? Can we really turn our over-thinking chaos into a cognitive oasis of calm and bliss? And can we really turn the internal volume down to zero? In this interesting chat with John Purkiss, we explore these questions and more. John is the author of 'The Power of Letting Go', a Cambridge educated academic, a spiritual seeker and teacher and just like you and me, a perpetual work in progress.

S1 Ep 1310#1310 Trying To Change People - Harps
In this brief solo episode, I discuss the (bad) idea of trying to change people. Good intentions don't always equal good outcomes, especially when the person you're trying to change hasn't sought your advice, feedback, input or help. In fact, in many cases, trying to coerce (guilt, threaten, leverage) a person to change will create more disconnection than connection, and more resentment than compliance. I've encouraged, supported and educated lots of people, but l've never changed anyone.
