In this episode of the Better Bloke Podcast, Matty and Rob chat to an absolutely legend, Blair Rubock from Through Strangers Eyes. If you haven't heard of Blair, he's the bloke who’s made it his mission to tackle some of the hardest conversations you'll ever hear—often with complete strangers. Rob and Matty dive deep into what drives Blair to do what he does and the courage it takes to hold space for people to share their raw, unfiltered stories. It takes a special kind of person to make people feel safe to open up about their biggest struggles, and Blair shares the highs and lows of that journey. This is one you don’t want to miss.
