SIM Ep 174, IMD 1: Mental health with Matt Haig

This week we’re doing things a bit differently. We’re always wanging on about how gender inequality is a ballbag for everyone – because it is. And so, ahead of International Men’s Day on November 19, we decided to do a series of interviews where we chatted to blokes about what’s going on with the dudes. Keep your ears peeled for chats with Shadow Health Secretary Jonathan Ashworth MP, writer, performer and campaigner Jordan Stephens, domestic violence campaigner Luke Hart and Dr Jacob Whittingham-Vigors of Fight For Peace. We’re kicking off our series of man specials with Mickey talking to awesome author and mental health advocate Matt Haig brain diahorrea, the many perils of Twitter and how Netflix has got it in for shut-eye.
