Build ‘Em Up Podcast – The Backstory

A great Queensland country bloke with a mullet is the inspiration behind the name of the Australian rural health podcast Build ‘Em Up.

Songwriter and performer Josh Arnold composed a country song called Build ‘em up as pick-me-up for rural, regional and remote communities during COVID-19. People from right across the rural landscape contributed words, phrases and poems to bring the song to life in 2020.

Have a listen to the full song here. The essence of Build ‘Em Up is being a spark of hope, support and resilience for each other, which is exactly what a lot of great people are doing in the rural health space.

Their stories are being showcased on the Build ‘Em Up podcast by the National Rural Health Alliance.
