F*CK! I'm 50
F*CK! I’M 50 started with a pretty simple question: where the bloody hell did the last 20 years go? One minute you’re busy working, raising kids and dealing with life, the next you wake up and realise — Fuck! I'm 50! Our kids hardly need us anymore, yet our parents need us more than ever before. My name's Paul Burfitt. My mates call me Burf. I’m not a guru, not a life coach and certainly not an expert. I’m just a bloke from Queensland who’s decided I’m not going to keep putting everything off. So I’m talking to people from around Australia and other places about all the stuff that comes up at this stage of life — family, money, health, work, relationships, ambitions, regrets, fuck-ups, starting again and figuring out what makes you happy. Some conversations will be with everyday people who have great stories. Others will be with people you already know from sport, media, business or somewhere completely unexpected. And every now and then I’ll bring in someone who genuinely knows a thing or two on the subject they’re talking. I’ve got a podcast and a little YouTube channel set up. You’re invited to come along for the ride as I start ticking off a few things I’ve spent too many years saying I’d do “one day”. I'm sure some people will think it's a brilliant idea. Plenty more probably won’t. But either way here we go, and remember this is a hate free zone so play nice… There's sure to be some spills, thrills and the occasional disaster as I try to make up for a bit of lost time. Most of all remember, F*CK! I’M 50 isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about finally asking the questions — and doing something about them.

He’s still here, but in many ways we’re already losing him. That’s hard to say—and even harder to watch.

With a background in sales and marketing, Ange talks about turning something he loves into a business, the influence family...
Nancy D’Agostino is a mum, wife, singing teacher, author, illustrator and performer. Yep, there’s a lot going on.
But behind everything Nancy has achieved is a story about family expectations, responsibility and what can happen when years of putting other people first leave you wondering where you went.
Nancy grew up working in her family’s furniture business and studied accounting because it was the secure path her...
Luke Moulton has spent most of his working life building businesses—from web development and digital marketing to running his own SaaS company.
