How Are You?

Episode 9: Ask For Help

Subtitle: Men’s mental health

In this episode Bill and Rupe discuss men’s mental health.

They are both aware that saying the wrong thing on a podcast that is listened to by hundreds (soon to be thousands) of people could be taken wrong – they are the first to admit they are not mental health specialists.

If you feel you may be triggered in some way by their discussion on mental health, suicide and depression, give this podcast a miss!

This was recorded on World Mental Health Day and is a subject close to their hearts.
