Before Shared Minds: How Liam & Kirby Survived Terrible Jobs, Broke Equipment to Get By, and Couldn’t Even Make Enough Money to Pay the Bills
Shared Minds PodcastShow Notes
We finally answer two of the questions we get asked the most: how we actually met, and what life was really like before the show. From the terrible jobs where we’d literally break equipment just to get out of work, to barely making enough money to survive, we open up on the kind of struggles nobody sees when they look at where we are now. This is the unfiltered story of financial hardship, rock-bottom moments, and the unlikely path that led us to Shared Minds.

We're going quiet for a while. Liam's heading to Europe for a month, and Kirby's off to Japan for a few weeks, so there'll be a break between episodes. If you're wondering where we've gone, now you know. Before we disappear, we get into a few things we reckon just aren't fair, starting with celebrities who get egotistical, arrogant, and rude to their fans. Those fans are the people who put them where they are, so honestly? Pull your head in. Plus plenty more yapping along the way. Catch you when we're back!
We’ve all had one, the shit job, the nightmare boss, or the workplace that made you question your entire existence. In this episode, Liam and Kirby talk about their worst jobs, terrible bosses, toxic workplaces and the absolute bullsh*t that can come with having a job. Because sometimes you don’t hate working… you just hate your boss
Liam and Kirby sit down to talk about Liam’s recent experience trying to get back on his medication and the frustrating reality of navigating the mental health system all over again. The conversation takes a turn as they question how the government is spending money, why accessing mental health support can feel so difficult, and whether enough is actually being done for Australians who need help. It’s an honest conversation about mental health, medication, the system, and the frustrations that come with trying to get the support you need.
Q&A time. This one is simple, we're answering your questions. Whatever you sent us, we're getting into it.
We did it. Our biggest milestone yet, the one we've been targeting since Day 1. 100,000 Instagram followers in 16 months. In this episode we unpack every major failure on the long, bumpy, winding road to get to where we are today, because nothing this great comes easy.
