Society & Culture

Southern Hibernation hit Melbourne this past weekend, bringing bears and those that love, like or just admire them to come together and celebrate all that’s fab, sometimes flab, and often furry in a week of events. Rach & Dean  have a packed studio on JOY Breakfast, as they were joined by the reigning bear titleholders from their respective states and countries, who are competing in the Mr Australasia Bear competition on Friday night:

Dom, Mr Bear Perth

Ben, Mr Bear NZ 

Luke, Mr Harbour City Bear 

Graeme, Mr Bear QLD 

And Jonny, Mr VicBears 

On Friday night we will find out which of these Bears has the Charisma, Originality, Courage and Knowledge to take the title of Mr Australasia Bear, but Rach & Dean have other plan, putting them through some challenges of their own as we find out which Bear will be on top in the JOY Breakfast Big Beary Challenge!
