🎙 Episode 21: Putting Your Foot Into It — The Art of Being Disliked

“Ever been told you’ve put your foot into it? 👣Mate, I’ve made a bloody career out of it. Some people collect stamps, I collect awkward silences.And here’s the funny thing: half the time, people think you’ve stuffed up. But really… you’ve just said what everyone else was too chicken to say.It’s like the elephant in the room. Everyone’s patting it, feeding it peanuts, pretending it’s not there… and then you walk in and go: ‘Holy shit, there’s a bloody elephant in here!’ Suddenly you’re the problem.I’ve done it in footy change rooms, boardrooms, and even hospital wards. First time I sat in dialysis, I looked around and said: ‘Well, this isn’t the Bali holiday I booked.’ Nurses didn’t know whether to laugh or call security. But the patients cracked up — tension gone. Honesty frees people.Support the show
