Description
Men, on the whole, stink at talking about how they’re feeling. We live in a world where the perception of masculinity doesn’t give modern men an outlet to deal with all the issues life hurls in our general direction. And that blows. That's where Campfire comes in. The aim is to normalise courageous conversations and encourage a healthy discourse about men's mental health, so people are better equipped to maintain long-term positivity. Join Bobby O and a new guest each week as he tumbles down the rabbit hole on his quest to reshape what it means to "be a man."
