S3 E12, Playing the buzzer game with Elliot from Andy's Man Club

chat chit

Trigger warning - We do mention suicide between minutes 10:30 to 23.
What is the buzzer game I hear you ask! Well in this episode of chat chit we see whether you can have a serious conversation about mental health alongside chatting about who your first tv crush was. Every 20 minutes an alarm will go off and we will answer a completely random and unrelated question.
We welcome Elliot who is the area lead for Andy's man club to talk about his journey of mental health. From early life and moving south to emotive music and fantasy football. We weave all sorts of tangents to try and show you that having serious conversations about mental health doesn't have to always be so serious.
I dont quite believe that Elliot is 22 after learning everything that has gone on in his life over the last 10 years, but nether the less we get some fantastic insight into his story and the great work he is doing now with Andy mans club.
Do we sometimes overcomplicate mental health? Are certain people on social media detrimental to male mental health? Who was your first tv crush?
What's your go to takeaway order? These a just a few of the questions we try to answer in this episode of chat chit
Enjoy.
