Back, Bothered & Motivated | ft. Simon Phillips

Loading player...
The team is back and the world didn't exactly slow down while they were gone.

Gareth and Ben catch up on everything that's been happening, including yet another assassination attempt on Donald Trump. They also turn their attention closer to home — or at least, closer to the couch — as they unpack the growing Gen Z trend of grieving the end of a weekend. Is it a mental health conversation worth having, or has an entire generation gone soft? Either way, it makes for great radio.

Then, Simon Phillips joins the show — the man behind the inspiring #SimonSaysServe movement. Simon's story is one of the most compelling you'll hear: a life rebuilt from the ground up, a decision to follow his heart when nothing was certain, and a reminder that reinvention is always possible. His message is simple but powerful — everyone has a story — and his is one you won't want to miss.
