FIRESIDE CHAT #3 !!!
This
podcast is an interview style show where each episode will have a
different person(s) with a different interesting story, job, thing
to plug, etc. Depending on how things go I may get people in local
bands, businesses, who knows!
Chippa is joined by Alex Newman, one of
the hosts of the GOBLIN LORE Podcast. Alex and his cohost,
Hobbes, discuss Magic: The Gathering from a perspective that
compares story themes, etc. with real world events and
issues. A common topic of their show is Mental Health
Awareness and, since May is Mental Health Awareness Month, we
thought it would be a perfect opportunity to have a FIRESIDE
CHAT!
Enjoy!
For general Mental Health the National Alliance on Mental Illness
(NAMI) has great resources for people struggling with
mental health concerns as well as their families. We also want to
draw attention to this article on
stigma from NAMI's site.
