Movember Part 1 with Dr Steve Jones

Hi there and a very warm welcome to Season 5 Episode 33 of People Soup – it’s Ross McIntosh here.  P-Soupers, One of the wonderful things about having a producer - and specifically a producer like Emma - is that she's fizzing with ideas. When Emma mentioned Movember I immediately sent out a bat signal to friend of the show Dr Steve Jones and later that week - we met virtually over a brew to chat about men's mental health. Why do men seem to find it more difficult to talk about emotions, stuff that makes them feel uncomfortable and instead tend to bottle it up? Well - we have a go at answering that - and reflect on some of the guests that Steve has had on his brilliant show - the Shit Shower and Self Care Podcast. We also touch on Steve's pride at his nerdiness, football, and superheroes. People Soup is an award winning podcast where we share evidence based behavioural science, in a way that’s practical, accessible and fun. We're all about sharing the ingredients for a better work life from behavioural science and beyond.There is a transcript for each episode. There is a caveat - this transcript is largely generated by Artificial Intelligence, I have corrected many errors but I won't have captured them all!
