Together, they share a common goal \u2013 encouraging Australian men to prioritise their mental wellbeing, check in with those around them and start conversations that could change, or even save lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All shows, news, traffic updates and advertising across Triple M will pause for one simple reason: to give Triple M listeners the space to check in with themselves and each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every day, an average of nine Australians die by suicide, and seven of them are men.* While the statistics are confronting, the message remains clear: talking saves lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the first time, the No Talk Day message will extend well beyond a single day. Throughout July, Triple M and LiSTNR will shine a spotlight on mental health through dedicated content, stories and conversations, ensuring the momentum created on No Talk Day continues long after the microphones switch back on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No Talk Day will also be supported by a dedicated collection of podcasts on LiSTNR, featuring powerful stories, expert insights and real conversations with our grassroot organisations, designed to encourage Australians to check in on themselves, their mates and their loved ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether it\u2019s picking up the phone and calling a friend, going for a walk together, or reaching out for professional support, No Talk Day encourages listeners to take action and start a conversation. Throughout the day (6am\u20136pm), carefully curated music will be featured alongside powerful messages and personal stories from our featured mental health organisations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Jamie Angel<\/strong>, Head of Triple M Network, said: \u201cFor eight years, No Talk Day has been about creating space for Australians to pause, reflect and connect. What began as a single day has become a powerful reminder that checking in with the people around us can make a real difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis year, we\u2019re proud to be working alongside&nbsp;<em>Are You Bogged Mate?<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Find Ya Feet<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>TIACS<\/em>&nbsp;\u2013 organisations that are doing incredible work where it matters most, in local communities and on the ground with Australians who need support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMental health isn\u2019t something we should only talk about once a year. If No Talk Day inspires someone to check in on a mate, ask for help, or start a conversation they\u2019ve been putting off, then we\u2019ve achieved what we set out to do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Triple M\u2019s No Talk Day will be heard across all 49 stations nationwide and on the LiSTNR app from 6am to 6pm on Monday, July 6.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Making mental health a priority is important at any time. For support, text or call TIACS on 0488 846 988 (Mon-Fri 8am to 10pm) or Lifeline on 13 11 14.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Partner Organisations:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/areyouboggedmate.com.au\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Are You Bogged Mate<\/strong><\/a>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/findyafeet.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Find Ya Feet<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiacs.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>TIACS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Monday, July 6, Triple M will switch off the mics across all 49 stations nationally, from 6am to 6pm, to observe its eighth annual&nbsp;No Talk Day.
