Before You Jump tackles the question: why is mental health still so hard for people to talk about?
Comedian Dylan Stewart hosts raw, unscripted one‑take conversations that reveal the real struggles many face. Each week brings a new guest with their own story to tell.
Some are loud, some are raw, some are unexpectedly funny, and all of them remind you that you’re not the only one fighting your brain.
Started to help a friend and now carried on in honour of Kelvin Wescombe, the show brings honesty, humour, and heart. You may laugh or cry, but you won’t be alone.
Who doesnt like animal facts?
I love them, so Siobhan is here to talk animals. She gives me an animal quiz to see what I know about New Zealand bugs and birds.
We also talk mental health, physical health and what she has been up to!
Good to be back on the mic after a very hard few months.
Sweet as.

Heading to the Kava Shack with Opeti
I was so lucky to have Opeti come over and record an episode. We talk about growing up with his Mum, going to Tonga... then coming home from Tonga, getting in trouble and of course stand up comedy! We cover his mental health and what his triggers are.
We also talk about his drive and how it lead to him starting his own clothing line (Ink Knife) (https://www.instagram.com/ink.knife/) and The Kava Shack (https://www.instagram.com/the_kava_shack/) which I hope to visit soon.
One of the most coolest, driven and funniest dudes out there.
I would also love to know what you want to hear from the show? What sort of content and guests? Let me know!

Anna Wood calls it down the middle
OMG I got to talk to a real life wrestling ref!
And wow does she have a lifetime of stories to tell in and out of the ring! Such an interesting person to talk to, and someone who I think you will agree needs to come back and chat again. Everything we dive into could have been an episode on its own.
Anna started her adult life studying for a career in film and television, and even had several years on screen before a broken neck put a holt to it. She moved to writing and producing, but after her production partner ... well you will hear.
We cover lots in this including her own mental health journey, how she got into wrestling, and the dangers of head injuries and how it impacted former wrestlers
All this and more
