A regular listener of the podcast (shout out to Ryan) has sent us through an email about friendships – and what do when you’re the one doing all the organising and keeping the group together.

It’s a position many people find themselves in. If you’re the connector of your group, you’d be forgiven for having moments of “stuff it, I’m doing this anymore” when it feels like people take your role for granted.

With social being such an important part of longevity, we discuss Ryan’s challenge and all the spin-offs that occur from the modern-day social conundrum.

It’s not an understatement to say if it weren’t for our guest on 100 Not Out today we may never have had some Winter Olympic heroes like Steven Bradbury, Zali Steggal, Alisa Camplin, Lydia Lassila, Torah Bright and so many more ...

Geoff Henke AO is a seminal figure in Australian winter sport, with a multifaceted legacy as both an elite ice hockey player and an influential sports administrator ...

“Mr Winter Olympics” was inducted into the Australian Sport Hall of Fame in 1993 after an incredible contribution to Australian sport ... Henke represented Australia in ice hockey for over 13 years, and represented Victoria nine times, captaining the team in 1959. He was the chief de mission of Australia’s winter olympic team for two decades ... was awarded an Order of Australian in 1987 and then was made an Officer of the Order of Australia in 1999 ... and in 2008 he became the first Australian to be made a lifetime member of the International Ski Federation.

Damo met Geoff at a new local restaurant - The European - recently and got chatting to the 97 year old icon about life, longevity and legacy. Today we bring that conversation to life on 100 Not Out.

In this heartfelt and energizing episode of 100 Not Out, Marcus and Damian switch things up with Damo taking the agenda and Marcus firmly in the hot seat.

The duo reflect on Marcus’ journey as a speaker, his passion for energising audiences about the art of ageing well, and the secrets behind his ever-present enthusiadsm. Through vulnerability and laughter, they unearth what keeps the fire burning after years of inspiring others, what happens behind the scenes before Marcus steps on stage, and how both men stay true to their core messages—on stage and in real life.

More than anything, this is an episode on the ups and downs we face as we go about living a life of purpose, and the decision to go all out at winning in all areas of life and not just a few.
