I was lucky enough to have a Youth Worker with lived experience when I was a resi kid. Now I’m a Youth Worker trying to pay it forward. The system is full of flops who don’t get it. Love your work Keenan!
Keenan Mundine you are an inspiration. I am a grown man and I just watched your TedxTalks and I shedded a tear. The courage and vulnerability shown is courageous, I take my hate off to you, much respect. I will checkout your Socials and look to help as much as I can with a donation. Keep up the great work for the community and keep inspiring others. Would love to see a Keenan part 2.
Didn't even know that Keenan was the mind behind deadly connections, I listened to him speak one night driving home from work and was blown away. Two great personality that have over come adversity
Such a good feeling just watching and listening to these guys, how they have turned their lives around, through the hard ship and pain, they have become the most humble and honest,,so so good
Letting your guests talk and the way you interact with them is great spanian, I hope you keep doing these, they are very eye opening. Big fan of you and this podcast dude!
Yes brother it's good to see another "underdog" winning in this life! Hopefully this will inspire someone else to greatness....keep firing on all cylinders brother 💯❤🤟🇬🇧
What an absolute legend this guy is, turned his life around and gives everything he has to help other kids. Take my hat ff to your brother. Drop links to where we can reach out and help him.
Brothers like Keenan and spainian who change there life around but try and help others going through it are the best souls on earth. Nothing but love to spainian an Keenan for changing his life for the positive love the podcasts it’s great to hear there boys stories
Damn that was deadset best podcast I have listened to in a long time. Good job to both of you fellas killing it your a real inspiration to the unlucky group that are born into the lives they see but people like yous help the light shine boys. Big ups
Should be proud of yourself Brother. You are making a big difference in the youth and the community. Changing people's lives. You also turned your whole life around. You wrote a book, gave lots of advice to the youth, taking care of your family. Be proud brother. Keep doing your thing. I am looking forward to your book.
Your legends brothers, really make me proud to be a man in Australia, we have to be united and push up all Pur brothers and sisters, from all walks of life!
These interviews are sick much props an respect to spanian an his boys for telling there stories an trying to educate the youth an also being able to pull themselves out of the shit hand they where dealt and learning from their mistakes an trying to teach from them aswell
Props to Keenan come a long way sometimes those who go through hard times are the realest people and helping guiding youth in the community gives back to the roots and soul of Redfern
Hey Mundine bra it’s Dave hunt much respect brother I still remember you Junee 2010 and we grew up all our lives juveee Kariong Rebee Cobram mostly much respect Spaniard love your work much Love boys ❤️😎
It’s better to boom the mics off camera. In your set, I’d boom above since you’re using medium tele lenses. Your camera is focused on the mic, where if you keep it out shot, it’ll probably eye track the person. Content is king though, and the content is gold standard. Keep up the good work.
Keenan my bah. We got a similar story. I started doing well 3 years ago when I got out last time. Before that I had done 13 years all up. The longest out was 6 month's. The shortest time out was 2 days. I got out Moday morning and back in Wednesday arvo 😳. What changed? I got clean. Now I work, have savings and own 3 cars. Got my Ls at the age of 33, got my opens at 35. I'm probably the only one out of my group of mates from the 90s 2000s who changed in their 30s. The rest are in jail or dead. Don't be like us kids
Big ups to Keenan. That’s what being a real OG is all about. Noticing your apart of the system and acknowledging it’s issues, to now punching up and out of it to help others is a big man move to make. Awesome interview! Going straight from here to listen to Keenans other Yarns I can find on RUclips. LEGENDS.
something which keenan and yourself spanian have to offer that the youth workers don't, is simply, respect. a concept that has been used and abused these days, but our millions of years of evolved instincts are as primed as ever to engage with. these kids don't respect the typical social worker fairy whatsoever. i'm not one of these kids but i've know more than my share through my short enough life. i have family that has lived in housing commissions. one does not simply walk into that type of environment as a complete alien and help those in need through good intentions and meticulously constructed social justice plans. they need men (and women) who have grown up in similar environments as them, who truly just see kids growing up and trying to learn how to exist in this ridiculous world. because it's all they are. they're not anything else until labels these kids don't even understand are placed on them by adults who spent too long reading the wrong books. we are the most imitative species on the planet. these kid's don't need role models, they need men and women to look up to and learn from. i guess that used to mean the same thing. but really, spanian isn't a "role model". you don't want to end up like him. that's part of his message. part of the message the both of these guys send these kids without anyone putting a word on it. they are able to express the wisdom to these kids that "there are good things about you, that are like good things about me, strengths you have that are because of the environment you grew up in. but keep going down the route you're on and you will end up dead or worse. i'm the lucky one" and they GET IT. your average social worker or therapist from your typical middle class background would kill for this ability. another great podcast. keep it up mate.
Kieran that's beautiful what you are doing, building in the community. I just watched your speech and I thought they were disrespectful all that moving around behind you when you were talking, luckily they couldn't distract you and you got your message across showing real emotions without diluting your words. Well done mate.
So good to see a good honest chat from 2 blokes who've turned their shit around and shining. Shit hot lads. The darker the abyss the brighter the light. Never stop trying and believe I'm yourselves. Merry Xmas and God bless 🙌
This gives me hope lad, newer generation but been on the block a lot like you boys and tryna fill in the time I used to spend on the eargay cookin man.
I was with Keenan at parkLea in 2003 and para corrections what a build bro could have made it anywhere super athletic after getting out in 2005 meet up with the lad and cocky boy did some urns this that too see him here now is super inspo bless this fulla Man U to span 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
U should partner up with Keenan Spanian in a youth group or something make a enterprise boyz u got a chance to make a change and inspire more boys and girls to become better people not just a min number big up much respect boyzz
Being a positive aboriginal man dont do drugs or crime ive always tryd to give advice to brothers caught up in that life & sometimes you don't know the right words to say both of you guys together could save so many people that are lost the way brother boy explained how he changed hes life summed up the answers ive been looking for, for a long time you guys are role models of our day & age
Thank you for doing this brother, I know i'm no one to you, but these podcasts are awesome, so much value comes outta them, Thank you for making them, Love and peace to you and yours, including your guests and every viewer
@spanian I grew up in Geelong and used heroin there and in Melbourne in early 90s , when I was in rehab in Melbourne , I heard about Cabramatta where the caps were $25 . And available 24/7 at the train o , it was like going to Disney land for a junkie , I got pinched in dulwich hill walking down the road with a microwave I stole ha ha , and in a stolen car in marrickville , these pod casts bring back So many memories , I’ve used 6 months in 24 years now , I looked in the mirror to brother think I weighed about 50 kilo and got clean , looked like death , thanks for these podcasts - dunno about search I would call real
What you men have done for recovery I am so proud of you two. I am a former inLA boy been clean for almost a year now. You guys are hard 💪👊👏 But one thing I don't understand is how did you manage to leave the country with a criminal record?

I’m a social worker in the inner-west and I deal with a lot of crew leaving gaol . Will shoot you an email this week Keenan and touch base!!!
Mate that was a beautiful story, props to the both of you guys you’re doing a lot of good for this world.
It’s better to boom the mics off camera. In your set, I’d boom above since you’re using medium tele lenses. Your camera is focused on the mic, where if you keep it out shot, it’ll probably eye track the person. Content is king though, and the content is gold standard. Keep up the good work.
On to it , must be a kiwi 😎
Solid work brother Keenan, inspirational story. Salute Spanian for bringing your story to light.
Thanx heaps brothers for opening up much love🙏🙏🙏
I’m impressed with these podcasts. Really interesting stories and I love the redemption.

This Podcast, and Keenan Mundine… the most compelling content on the internet.
Big ups to Keenan. That’s what being a real OG is all about. Noticing your apart of the system and acknowledging it’s issues, to now punching up and out of it to help others is a big man move to make. Awesome interview!

But one thing I don't understand is how did you manage to leave the country with a criminal record?
say he got exemption for that talk probably
Some countries do not check criminal records
These are great real people
