Australian reality television host Osher Günsberg showed off his Phonak hearing aids to his social media fans, with an important message about hearing health.
The 42-year-old host of Australia’s “The Bachelor” and “Australian Idol,” shared his slick Phonak receiver-in-canal (RIC) hearing aids with an earfie photo on Instagram.
“Wear earplugs. Turn your earbuds down,” he wrote to fans, alluding that his hearing loss may have been a result of unsafe listening practices.
