Dean Lonergan was a Kiwi rugby league player in the late 80s and early 90s. He is reluctantly most remembered for a sickening head clash where he was knocked out cold and convulsing on the field…before returning to play on only 6 minutes later.Since retiring from sport, he had a very successful career in breakfast radio before reinventing himself once again and becoming New Zealand’s most well known sports promotors, introducing the fight for life concept to NZ.His life story is one hell of a ride with some huge highs and some very deep lows, and we cover all of them in this conversation: His league career then radio daysHis yearlong depression and what caused it.The acrimonious split with his Duco events business partnerWhy he is now back in NZ and flatting with his mum and sister. And so much more.Huge thanks to Radix Nutrition who have made this episode possible. Please check them out and if you like what you see, support the legends who support this podcast.https://radixnutrition.co.nz/To reach me, I am on IG or Email:DomharveyNZ@gmail.comIG: DomharveyNZ or RunnersonlywithdomharveyThanks, Dom Hosted on Acast.
