The story was reported in The Age: “A sign condemning violence against women and children erected on Phillip Island after the death of local mother Samantha Fraser has been vandalised. The roadside billboard, erected by Westernport Water as part of a local campaign to fight family violence, has been defaced four times since it was put up more than a month ago.” Ant talks with Tash, and the circumstances around the vandalism, Samantha’s tragic death, and what’s next.

All Men Can Podcast

Episode 18 - Tash from Phillip Island; A Special Interview

No brainer this time round... we talk Gillette, the tragic murder of Aiia Maasarwe in Melbourne, Kelly O’Dwyer stepping away from Federal politics, plus Damien might...just might, express a fully considered and verbalised idea before moving into the next one. See if you can pick it.

Episode 17 - The Best A Man Can Get?

What a year! Is there ANYTHING good to talk about? It's a time to reflect on 2018, cover off on some lingering issues, and look forward to making 2019 waaaay better than this one. In our final ramblings for this year, we deliver some book reviews of all things, focus on what has mattered to Australia (SPOILER ALERT: It's mainly superficial), discover what's been great for women around the world (guess what! positivity can exist OUTSIDE your feed) and identify if New Year's resolutions are even necessary. Have a listen, stay safe, and feel free to explore or previous episodes until we upload our first for 2019. Thanks to everyone for supporting the #AllMenCanAUPodcast so far.

Episode 16 - Happy New Year?

Tracy McLeod Howe, for 12 weeks, was CEO of White Ribbon. The depth of her experience explains why she was asked to become the CEO. In this episode, Ant travels to Sydney to have a chat with Tracy about the impact of White Ribbon and what men who don't want to be Ambassadors can do to reduce violence in our society. There's a Monty Python reference and some career advice.

Episode 15 Tracy McLeod Howe, former White Ribbon CEO

Dave Grohl IS Jesus...moving on. In a scrambling attempt to cover off on the flood of shite that's been happening between September and now, we throw stones at Piers Morgan, Brett Kavanaugh et. al. In the process, we discover we might not be so innocent, as we call it out and promptly put our hand up! Ping New York Times, SBS The Feed, The Guilty Feminist Podcast.

Episode 14 - No Man is Safe!

AMC's Back...ALL RIGHT! Where have we been? We're calling it a “temporary conscious uncoupling”…the end of "Phase 1" for the #AllMenCanAUPodcast. So, let’s launch into “Phase 2" with an incredibly personal (and much shorter) episode around the impact of your career on mental health. A lot has happened around the world since our last episode. We don’t touch on that here. Standby for Episode 14, or Ep 2 of Phase 2 after the weekend. It’s good to be back…and it’s fucking awful to have too much to talk about.

We also touch on the recent billboard vandalism on #PhillipIsland and share some listener feedback, coz that's always nice...when it's actually nice.

Episode 7 Photo in a Wooden Frame

FINALLY! Some expert advice on what #AllMenCan actually do to be more respectful and make the community a safer place.

Oh, and they have some special guest presenters this time too! How can you prevent violence against women? You don’t have to be an expert to prevent violence against women – we all have a role to play.

Episode 6 Return of the Alpha...bet

OUR SHORTEST PODCAST SO FAR YOU GUYS! Henry Cavill can't flirt because #MeToo, Disney fires James Gunn because he's a tweeting idiot, Newtown's Coopers Hotel manager fired because of idiot Facebook post, ANZ CEO close to not being an idiot after offering something close to an apology.

Episode 5 Old Tweets Strike Back

(UPDATE! Read the article inspired by this chat, try and ignore the comments :http://bit.ly/AllMenCanAUNewsComAUJuly16) We have an expert, you guys! Damien's recent news.com.au article (http://bit.ly/NewsComAuAllMenCan1)addressed the women dying each week in Australia at the hands of men, especially in the home. This saw yelling on social like 'What about men being murdered/Women murdering?" Fair questions, so we got Kat Benson from the https://www.facebook.com/TheREDHEARTCampaign/ to drop some facts like phat beats. There's going to be a LOT of people who won't accept the stark reality of these figures and will swiftly move on to their next irrelevant contention, or fall back on the redundancy of #NotAllMen. Have a listen and see where you stand. Remember, Facts are Facts!

Episode 4 Is there Hope? Special Guest Kat Benson

WARNING: Damien DOMINATES this one (sorry :/)! We found out how people REALLY feel about our #AllMenCan manifesto (sic)after Damien wrote for news.com.au: http://bit.ly/NewsComAuAllMenCan1 Subsequently, we address the overwhelming feelings surrounding #NotAllMen. Plus Damien actually calls out a man and instantly becomes THAT GUY! Shannon Noll wants to eff your mum, and the only time Anthony actually speaks, he drops the C-Bomb, so we bleeped him out. Yes, Damien was in a toilet when this was recorded. E.g. Sorry for the poor audio quality. We got our wires crossed after a 3-way chat. NEXT EPISODE DROPS THIS WEEKEND!

Two blokes exploring what #AllMenCan do to make our world a little better for themselves and those around them. No quals, just a passion to challenge and change. #AllMenCanAUPodcast
