Jeremy Wells shares when he considered suicide || Runners Only! Podcast with Dom Harvey
Episode Description
EP07 Runners Only! with Dom Harvey & Jeremy Wells
This week's episode is sponsored by Triumph & Disaster https://www.triumphanddisaster.co.nz
There is so much more to Jeremy Wells than just that RIDICULOUSLY good-looking face that we see on TV and Billboards.
As well as holding down two high-profile media roles (a breakfast radio show and a 7pm current affairs show). Jeremy also finds time to run most days of the week. In this wide-ranging conversation, we talk about his why- why he started.
We chat about being raised posh, the most trouble he got into as a youth, the lowest point in his life, his big break on TV, his co-hosts, cancel culture and why he will never ever go back to Gore.
I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation and I really hope you do as well.
