Speaker 1 (00:21):
There were some alarming headlines in the last day or so.
It said that Barrydboire citing on he's got three months
to live, This is not.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Quite the case. That's a story he wrote about a
number of years ago.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Please to say he's going extremely well and he's sitting
right in here with us and enjoying the smells of
TikTok Tucker.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Barry, Holla, you look like you're gonna live for a
thousand years. Mate, you look fantastic.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Yeah, let's check in three months, that's for sure.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
That headline yesterday alarmed me. But you were talking about
when you were first told that sixteen years ago.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Yeah, the first diagnosed this. That's what they said. It
was a real shock. But a spoiler alert. Don't have
to tell you I'm stealing are you?
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Are you? Because it's a bad smell in the studio
and I don't know about you.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
I wish I could describe that. I did a little
Instagram post before I so you just can't describe how
it smells.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
No, well, welcome to TikTok. He would have.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Thought the ground up hot dogs would smell like that.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
You know what we've discovered that weird like crunchy bit
in it was, it's the skin.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Back again to Jeffrey Dharmer, we should have got some
cooking tips from him.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
The only thing that was worse was Jonesy's face. Honestly,
you were concerned for your own health. I would have
rather eaten some death cap mushrooms and a beef Wellington
than that.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
That was true. Well, we've all got our choices now.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Barry, Hello, I know that we're here talking about Men's
Health Week, which is next week, and this is something
very close to your heart literally and figuratively.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Yeah, well it should be close to aiheas. Really it's
just a week of awareness around the importance of holistic
health for men in particular at the moment.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
But women better at looking after their health than men are.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Women are bad. Women are latual thinkers, so they can
think about a lot of things at once, whereas men
you work with one so you know and consider generally,
you think about one thing. Yes, and men there's still
a stigma there always will be that the alpha male things. Yeah,
I'll be right, I'll be okay. But you know, I
do a thing called ABC of health awareness. Be aware
(02:09):
that there could be something wrong. And we know, all
of the three of us know that early detection is
a really important thing. So if you're if you're not
feeling that well physically, get it checked out. Get that
blood test. An early blood test is one of the
reasons I am here sixteen years later. Okay, if I
hadn't taken it up that maybe maybe three months later
that would have happened. But the early detection, it's one
(02:31):
of the things that saved me. Be curious. I always say,
think of how you can do things better, and be
aware of who's around you. If you're if you're unsure
about the health of someone else, ask them, especially with
mental health. You know my work with auok data, that's
what we say, just of your curious, ask the question,
and then connection I think is so important. And that's
(02:53):
one of the other reasons I'm here today because I'm
working with a group called Cup of TV COUPA dot TV,
and we've got a whole range of panel of speakers
that talk about health and production and teamwork, and I
think so much of our time has spent it work
that is a big part of our community. And I
think that the corporate world needs to really get on
(03:15):
board with these awareness weeks, Men's Health Week, Men's Mental
Health Week, all sorts of things, and to be able
to lean into ideas like cupver dot tv. You've got
plenty of access to the right people to help your
team out.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
So as you know, you say that you would diagnose
all that sixteen years ago, your beautiful twins turned into
teenagers this week thirteen. I mean, I bet you wish
you'd on that day when you got that news. I
bet you'd wish you'd seen a snippet of this day.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
You met me.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
No I knew I would. I just have to say
the word mother children, and you bore your.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
Eyes out because it's so beautiful and it's so beautiful,
and I am I happily cry about how beautiful that
feeling was. You're right, we couldn't have imagine. I showed
you a photo yesterday what Arabella is going to wear
her her white themed disco that's going to happen at
my place on that and.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
As you say, and a blink of an eye, a
go I was holding her as a newborn. Yeah, but
even in the darkest times for you, you've always said
you're the luckiest man alive. Your attitude has played such
a big part in your survival.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
And mindfulness and self belief and connection is a big
part of general health. It is people will give up
on you, and if you don't give up on yourself,
you'll stay here forever. And we're all heading to the
same spot. But it's how you live every day.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
I'll remind you of that on Saturday night with having
a disco party, thirteen year old.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Ye, that's when you'll be saying, mother beeper, you'll be
tears of another kind barrier. Well, it's always great to
talk to you. Men's Health Week runs June nine to fifty.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Lots of initiatives, lots of things taking place, but it
is such a good mess.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Man has packed some TikTok tuck of pancakes hot dog
pancakes for you to take home.
