Hold the Moment Season 3 Trailer

Dementia is now Australia's leading cause of death and yet the conversations that matter most are still the hardest to have. Hold the Moment returns for a third season to change that. Co-hosted by Jim Rogers, who is living with young onset Alzheimer's disease, and Hamish Macdonald, a leading journalist who cared for his father through Lewy Body dementia and Parkinson's, the show brings the voices of people living with dementia and those who love them into the open. Real people. Hard questions. No filter. Series 3 goes further than ever before, into the risk of financial abuse, the isolation faced by young carers, the heartbreak and hope of childhood dementia, and the surprisingly peaceful possibility of palliative care. Jim shares how his own condition has progressed since Series 2, and both hosts sit with guests whose experiences will challenge, move, and inform anyone touched by this disease. Alongside the 10 main episodes, bonus Ask Us Anything episodes put listener questions directly to experts, covering everything from consent and intimacy to showering routines and residential care. Nothing is off limits.  Hold the Moment is a podcast from Dementia Australia, produced by Deadset Studios.   +++   Hold the Moment is a podcast from Dementia Australia, produced by Deadset Studios and hosted by Jim Rogers and Hamish Macdonald.
