Shooting the Shit - Episode #109 - FIRESIDE CHAT - Alex Newman of Goblin Lore - 2022_0511

!!! 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!   #MentalHealthMtG #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth   Tiltify - #MentalHealthMTG2022 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.
