Deadset Studios and Dementia Australia partner for a podcast exploring living with dementia
The new podcast, titled Hold The Moment is hosted by Jim Rogers, who lives with younger onset dementia and journalist Hamish Macdonald, whose father has dementia.
Throughout seven episodes they explore the experiences of people living with dementia, carers and health experts – from being diagnosed to managing sleep disturbance and hallucinations, travelling, staying active and managing relationships.
“I felt very lonely after my dementia diagnosis. It’s pretty scary, scary territory,” Jim says.
“Being able to hear about others’ experiences in a positive way on a podcast like this would have been an amazing thing for me when I was diagnosed.”
Rogers and Macdonald will be joined on the podcast by Heather Cooper, Catherine Daskalakis, Pam Eade, Juanita Hughes, Ann Pietsch, Anthony Pollock and Kevyn Morris – who all live with different forms of dementia, as well as Dom O’Leary, who cared for her father with dementia.

Let’s Trot Podcast scraps Taylan May interview
Josh Mansour’s Lets Trot podcast has scrapped an already filmed interview with exiled NRL player Taylan May after fan backlash.
May is currently fighting a legal case after he was charged with assault occasioning actual bodily harm and two counts of stalking. Due to these charges, he was let go by the Panthers earlier this year.
Mansour posted to his Instagram story: “I wholeheartedly apologise for the lack of foresight and timing to interview Taylan, especially before court proceedings could take place.
“My intention was to get a better understanding of Taylan as a person, and his upbringing around rugby league.
“Again, the timing was poor, and it was poor judgement on my behalf, and I own that.”
