Numero dos is here. Heath regales us with his ultimate childhood Christmas memory, the story of "When Heath met Steve" (cue Harry Connick Jnr) and the infamous Steven Seagal story (albeit heavily redacted).

I go solo for this shorter episode on a topic that I feel doesn't get sufficient air time when the media covers film production and that is mental health. So possible trigger warnings as I’ll be specifically discussing anxiety and sharing my own experiences with this mental health issue.Also below is a link via the Australia Counselling website for anyone interested in accessing more information about the services that these fantastic mental health organisations provide to Australians.

Daniel Fenech aka Fenno, returns for this episode to wrap up our chat on producing. He reveals that Jonathan Page has joined on as a distributor and I try my hand at impersonating Homer and faux McConaughey while keeping it all Christmess related.Additional Links Daniel Fenech – Brick Studios: https://www.brickstudios.com.auCrowd Funding Campaign for CHRISTMESS : https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/christmess#
