Toy Division Graffiti Podcast

By Toy Division Crew

Writing on walls, trains and other surfaces is something that people do worldwide. Toy Division graffiti podcast includes stories about being a clueless graffiti writer; how to live a healthier lifestyle and other related subjects. It's not about your latest local commission street art mural; Banksy book; or the latest photorealistic legal mural paid for by a large company. Listen and open your mind to learn more about supposedly mindless vandalism; as well as other points of interest in relation to mental, physical and social wellness. Instagram: @toydivision2

The Da Vinci Chode (#100)

The Da Vinci Chode (#100)

An extra special round table discussion between Mr Keyline, Mr Export, Mr Westline and Mr TD. Many subjects are discussed including mental health; staying active as a productive member of society; people who the show hosts are noticing getting up in various parts of Australia; and a weird bunch of puns related to chodes (aka a penis that is wide as it is tall).

This will be the last episode until September 2024, so grab a tea, coffee or something else; and get ready for some mega fresh Toy Division podcast gibberish.

As always Toy Division’s goal is to normalise and de stigmatise mental health issues. We are often providing as much guidance as possible to use certain lifestyle habits to buffer physical/mental heath difficulties.

Turn around tactics (#97)

Turn around tactics (#97)

Solo episode all about how to make lifestyle choices that can improve your physical and mental health at any age. It covers sleep as the most powerful of health strategies possible; how it's essential to engage in regular movement/exercise; how to start developing emotional regulation skills; and eating good quality whole foods.

Every single one of us should rebel against the small minded concept that we are cannot influence how we feel or deal with the world and the large corporate interests that perpetuate that lie. Don't get mugged off and you'll be able to paint for much longer when old age finally happens to you.

Stop smoking shard and shanking people (#70)

Top quality chat with the person currently working on a book all about the Melbourne graffiti writing scene. We discuss the book (Wall Stories); how important lifestyle choices are in relation to physical and mental health; how important doing insides was part of the Melbourne train scene; why treating ourselves better enables longevity in the graffiti writing game; why just smoking meth and knifing people isn't the one; and a shit ton of other graffiti related gibberish.

Keeping it lively (#69)

Recording of an Instagram Live Q&A all about mental health and ways in which to understand the complex and amazing 'human condition'. Becoming educated and being curious about what we can do to assist our physical and/or mental health is incredibly important, so hopefully this episode helps start that process.

As always Toy Division’s goal is to normalise and de stigmatise mental health issues. This episode is all about discussing those issues and providing as much guidance as possible to use certain lifestyle habits to buffer physical/mental heath difficulties

Pain doesn’t always equal tissue damage... (#64)

Pain doesn’t always equal tissue damage... (#64)

Chronic persistent pain is an issue for people of all ages across the world; and although there has been decades of pain science research most people don’t realise that pain doesn’t always equal tissue damage or injury. This episode is all about chronic persistent pain and how we can all be more able to deal with pain of all kinds.

Understanding pain is something all people can benefit from, because we will all feel pain of some kind in our life and even if not, understanding how to empathise or validate others pain experiences is essential.
