À propos de ce contenu audio

Question The Default is a podcast that challenges the unspoken rules and harmful norms shaping modern life.


Host Harry Corin is joined by guests from sport, entertainment, politics, and academia as they explore some of the biggest issues we face today. From mental health, masculinity, and addiction to the growing impact of AI on our health, the series responds to the headlines and conversations shaping the world right now.


Too many of our struggles persist because we accept “that’s just the way things are.” This series challenges that – opening up honest conversations about what it really takes to move forward.


Created in partnership with Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM), Question The Default goes beyond awareness to uncover the systems, stories, and beliefs that need to change.

    • Dan Whitlam: Coping with grief through creative expression
      Feb 11 2026

      In this episode of Question The Default, Harry is joined by spoken word artist and musician Dan Whitlam to discuss the power of words and creativity in coping with grief and making sense of trauma.


      From losing his mum at a young age and being stabbed at 16 to finding his voice through poetry, Dan opens up about his journey through grief and the unexpected healing that came from releasing his art.


      The conversation explores how creative expression can help us process pain, why men are often taught to bottle things up, and how vulnerability can be a radical act, for ourselves and for others who see their own stories reflected back at them.


      Dan opens up about:

      • Losing his mum as a child and how grief shaped his inner world

      • Growing up between countries and feeling the impact of constant change

      • Being stabbed at 16 and living with panic attacks and fear

      • Turning trauma into poetry and performance

      • Challenging toxic ideas of masculinity and emotional silence

      • The power of spoken word to help others feel less alone

      • Why slowing down, reflecting, and “not having it all figured out” matters


      A moving episode about language, loss, and the strength it takes to speak honestly.

    • Leodhais Macpherson: Turning Grief Into Conversation
      Jan 28 2026

      In this episode, Harry is joined by Leodhais Macpherson, a Newcastle native who ran 128 marathons in 128 days to honour his brother, Connor, who lost his life to suic*de at just 21 years old.


      What began as a simple effort to fundraise donations allowed Leodhais to openly speak about his brother for the first time in 7 years, with the support of family, friends, and a growing online community of over 25 thousand people.


      The conversation explores how we can support others through suic*de bereavement and the power of opening up about grief.


      Leodhais opens up about:

      • Losing his brother Connor to suic*de and the long period of silence that followed

      • Challenging the default of “I’m fine” culture among men and mates

      • Learning that suic*de and mental health struggles can affect anyone

      • Using running as a tool for processing emotion

      • The impact of small, honest conversations

      • Why talking about the person you’ve lost can be more helpful than staying silent
