1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,680
Speaker 1: Hey, Lauren. Yes, I was on the socials the other

2
00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 1: day and I stumbled across a video that was Look,

3
00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:11,800
Speaker 1: it was heartwarming. It was also heartbreaking. But I think

4
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 1: you're really gonna get something from it. And I've actually

5
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:18,400
Speaker 1: invited these two into to chat to Melbourne. First, let's

6
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:19,040
Speaker 1: play the audio.

7
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:24,439
Speaker 2: Hey, it's okay, man, this is the worst play.

8
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:26,479
Speaker 3: Do you know how many times I've come last in

9
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 3: my life? Many games are footy I've lost. Do you

10
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 3: know how many times I played ships?

11
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 2: Yes? Or I did so many times. It's okay, is

12
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 2: the worst place. It's okay, buddy. I know it's disappointing,

13
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 2: but it's not the end of the world.

14
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 4: All right.

15
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:46,479
Speaker 3: You showed up. I'm so proud of you just for

16
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 3: being there. You could have pulled out. It's in a

17
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 3: whole different category to those boys, all right. None of

18
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 3: them are dealing with what you are, okay. None of

19
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 3: them are as brave, as strong, as tough as what

20
00:00:56,600 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 3: you are. Okay, that is fine. I played an entire

21
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 3: career and didn't win a single final.

22
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 1: It's going to be okay.

23
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 2: I love your right.

24
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 1: That is Dyson Heppel, former Essendon captain and beautiful Harrison

25
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 1: both of whom joined us in the studio right now.

26
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 1: Good morning guys, Morning morning.

27
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 5: It's so nice to meet you. Talk us through what

28
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 5: happened in that video.

29
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 4: So I was at state class country. It was like

30
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 4: really big like states, like really big full people. So

31
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 4: it was like full on people for gear and all

32
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 4: all of those stuff. And I was first in like

33
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 4: different categories. It was so much fun. But last it

34
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 4: was really bad for me.

35
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 5: No, you went to this state cross country.

36
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 2: I mean the state athletics, wasn't it your two hundred

37
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 2: meter event? That was that one on the day?

38
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 5: Who else has run in the state athletics here? Not me?

39
00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 2: I ran once in state No, I came dead last

40
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 2: as well, So don't worry about that. Get absolutely smoked

41
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 2: at the same age as you.

42
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 5: So tell us about your friendship with h Oh.

43
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 2: Look, we got way back, now, don't we Man. So

44
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 2: I guess the backstory. So my grandmother passed away from

45
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 2: the same condition that h Man has, an autoimmune disease

46
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 2: called scleroderma. When I got drafted, I became an ambassador

47
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 2: for the Scleroderma Foundation, and through the foundation, they introduced

48
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 2: me to the young h Man, who was a mad

49
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 2: Bombers fan at the time he was five years old.

50
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 2: Oh no, here we go.

51
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 5: I'm sorry about That's way worse than coming last in

52
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 5: the Athletic Bombs.

53
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 1: What sort of ever mate is Dice? How good is

54
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: it to have a friend like him?

55
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's so much fun and he does so much

56
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 4: for me and I really like it.

57
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:47,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, thanks buddy.

58
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 5: How long have you been friends for?

59
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 4: Since twenty eighteen?

60
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 5: How old are you?

61
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 4: I'm thirteen, thirteen?

62
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 2: This is the thing, too was and when he was

63
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 2: When h was five, they gave him two years to

64
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,919
Speaker 2: live and he's now thirteen. So he's got this attitude

65
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 2: and character and just punches through every barrier that's setting

66
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 2: his way in just having a good dig and getting

67
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 2: after it.

68
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: So does take us to that moment because it clearly

69
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: meant a lot to you as well, getting the chance

70
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 1: to sit down with H in a moment where he

71
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 1: was seemingly at a bit of a low point and

72
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:20,359
Speaker 1: you did what you did.

73
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 4: Well.

74
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess that's the thing. I'm super proud of

75
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 2: the kid just for getting up and having a crack

76
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 2: with everything he has to deal with. But you know,

77
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 2: to show up at the State Athletics he was already

78
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 2: going in quite nervous around. He's in the multi class category,

79
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 2: but versing kids that would run faster than me, and

80
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 2: you know, I thought, you know, part of filming it

81
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 2: was for me just to show a side of a

82
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 2: normal thirteen year old kid that just really cares and

83
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 2: you know, showing a bit of vulnerability. It's not all

84
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 2: about the highs that we've been doing through the label

85
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 2: and the buckle list items, but also just shows the

86
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 2: raw emotional side of a normal thirteen year old kid

87
00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 2: living his life.

88
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 5: So when you say the label and the bucket list,

89
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 5: what's that all about?

90
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:02,119
Speaker 4: Yees?

91
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 2: So we've rocked up actually was rocking the same jump

92
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 2: and we've worn the same kit, but we managed.

93
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 5: Did you turn up matching?

94
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 2: He had to get it off him. But now that's

95
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 2: been a really fun, fun journey and story with you.

96
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 2: Along with my wife Kate and h Man, we founded

97
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 2: the label H Label, a little play on h Man's name,

98
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 2: and he comes up with all the designs, the drawings,

99
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 2: the slogans, the artwork. Thank you for the graphics on

100
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:27,600
Speaker 2: the kit and the proceeds of sale help go back

101
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 2: towards sticking off his bucket list. Item.

Speaker 4: the stage.

116
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,600
Speaker 1: of what your good mate Dice said to you in

117
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,359
Speaker 1: that moment at the Athletics Carnival.

118
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 4: Never give up. Keep pushing no matter what, even when

00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:19,480
Speaker 1: I love it now.

121
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,480

122
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 5: rocking for a mullet at the moment. How long you've

123

Speaker 2: Looks good.

126
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,600
Speaker 1: When Dice used to play for the Bombers, he used

127
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,600
Speaker 1: to have well for part of his career anyway, he

128
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 1: used to have the long sort of dreads. Is that

129
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 1: what you're going for?

130
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 4: No.

131
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: I tried to convince him.

132
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 2: I tried to get him on the dreadlock train, but

133
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:41,160
Speaker 2: he didn't want to bark.

134
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 1: And how I'm never going to do that, And how

135
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:46,320
