The 500th episode. Musings and reflections from a Welsh mountain range.

In episode 500 I, Stuart Ralph, reflect on my journey with The OCD Stories podcast over the last nearly 10 years. To do this I took a hike in the Brecon Beacons National Park in Wales, UK.

Thanks for listening over the last 500 episodes!
