Episode 33 | Bradley Dryburgh: Write Your Own Eulogy
Bradley Dryburgh joins Jamie Small and George Azzi at The Grey. Born with cystic fibrosis and told his life would be ruined, the Wollongong real estate agent swapped hospital stays for marathon finish lines, built a 312-episode podcast, and wrote the memoir I Wrote My Own Eulogy.
He left school at 16 for TAFE personal training, then moved into real estate at 20. A move to Melbourne’s high-end market looked like the prize, until seven-day weeks and distance from family sent his lungs backwards. He came home, picked up The Alchemist, and learned the treasure was in the journey. A nine-year-old ward-mate named Krishnan, smiling through leukaemia, still shapes how he shows up. Trikafta in 2022 cleared 13 years of daily mucus in 72 hours and lifted his lung function 10 per cent. He has run marathons and a 50k on 74 to 76 per cent lung function, raised money for Cystic Fibrosis Australia, and treats health as the first cornerstone: lose it and you lose everything.
They get into why a moving man eventually meets his luck, writing your own eulogy as a filter for what actually matters, parents who never let him see the fear, a nightly prayer that started at 13, the smelling salts and chilli, a spiral fracture from chasing his wife up the stairs, burnout after 18 months without a day off, and IVF on the cards with his wife. Five years from now he wants to be happier, healthier, by the beach, and a good example for the kids he hopes to have.
Hosted by Jamie Small with co-host George Azzi.

Sandor Earl: Peptides, Storm Culture & Building Run Nation
Jamie Small and George Azzi sit down with former NRL winger, gym owner and Run Nation partner Sandor Earl. Sandor talks through the peptide scandal, why the nine months of pretending everything was fine hit harder than the ban, tearing his ACL three weeks into a Melbourne Storm comeback, and why he still would not take those years back.
They get into growing up independent in Willamaloo, manufacturing adversity for kids, vision boards, F45, Craig Bellamy’s effort-over-excuses culture, and the difference between looking the part and actually flipping the stereotype. Sandor also opens up about walking away from Air Locker, saying no, scarce-mindset decisions, and why Run Nation is the third dream he is actually living.

Adam Van Spanje: Newbie Machines, Peptides & the Father-Son Bond
In this episode of Everything Counts, hosts Jamie Small and co-host George Azzi sit down with Adam Van Spanje — long-time health & fitness industry operator, peptide pioneer in Australia since 2008, and exclusive distributor of the Newbie machine (New Fit) across Australia, New Zealand, Asia, UAE and India.
Adam breaks down how the Newbie’s direct-current neurological re-education technology activates stubborn muscle groups, accelerates rehab, improves sleep and is already used by NRL clubs including the West Tigers and St George Illawarra Dragons. He then takes us deep into the peptide world — the early days with Steve Dank, opening MRC Medical Rejuvenation Clinic, the shift to quality-of-life and longevity protocols, why he recommends CJC/Ipamorelin, BPC-157, GHK-Cu and TRT, the real risks of black-market product, and how his telemedicine clinic keeps everything clinical, legal and wholesale-priced.
The conversation also digs into the powerful father-son relationship that has shaped Adam’s entire life and businesses, the lessons he is now passing to his own son Levi, and the daily discipline required to stay locked in as a husband, father and entrepreneur.
Packed with real talk on performance, recovery, fatherhood and why everything still counts.
