    TSHP507: War – Is it ever right?

Great podcast

Great for nodding off at night and helping calm down. Sound like great blokes as well. Really interesting to see the world (specifically mental health world) from someone else’s point of view.

Listening in....always a positive experience.

These podcasts are an easy listen and in my week, provide a place to stop, focus a little and stop the chattering of the mind.
Always helpful and I’d happily recommend.
