The 84

"In the final episode of Series 1 we intended to discuss everything that had happened this year and look at the highlights from the past 6 months. However, given more recent events with the Black Lives Matter protests, we felt there was a more important conversation to have. This is our BLM episode which was an incredibly personal episode for Omar. Please share you thoughts and feelings on our social media platforms."

This week we were joined by motivational speaker, former pro rugby player and co-founder of Andy's Man Club Luke Ambler.  In Luke's words we get 'real and raw' and talk all things mental health, mindset and so much more.  Follow Luke on all social media platforms @lukeamblerUK and don't forget to check out www.andysmanclub.co.uk/

Our Zoom odyssey continues with this weeks guest, Nathaniel Hall. He is theatre maker and sexual health activist best know for his outstanding show "First Time" which documents his experience of contracting HIV at the age of 16 and how it has shaped his life. We're sure everyone will get something out of this episode.  Nathaniel can be reached on Instagram and Twitter @nathanieljhall and you can find out more about Dibby Theatre @dibbytheatre.  For more information or support on all HIV matters please contact the George House Trust at www.ght.org.uk/

In this weeks episode we have a chat with Gary Andrews, aka Gary Scribbler, discussing his fascinating career and the tragic circumstances that brought him national notoriety. It is impossible not to be touched by Gary's story and we hope you enjoy listening as much as we loved (virtually) meeting him.  Follow Gary on Instagram and Twitter @garyscribbler or visit www.garyscribbler.co.uk/

Dr Sarah Hattam is a GP with 25 years of professional experience. Sarah joined us via video link for a chat about mental health in the workplace, the important of sleep and NHS. Enjoy the conversation as we sort the hard facts about sleep from the, erm, bollocks. Dr. Hattam can be reached via her website: https://www.conciliohealth.com/  

A mental health catch up with the lads. Some real honesty and a few suggestions on how to create a few positives during social distancing. 

Well, this is a bit of a pickle isn't it? Without a way to get together or interview a guest we jumped on our laptops for a video chat. There will be a few of these episodes going forward until we all know where we stand with Covid19 and social isolation.  Drop us a line if you have anything you'd like us to discuss on the podcast.  Stay safe and be good to each other. Dan, Omar & Ant

3 episodes in. Time to meet the third member of The 84 team...me! Enjoy getting to know your our presenters a little better as we talk enjoyable nonsense.  Producer Ant

‘Inspirational' is a word that you will be hearing (a lot) on our podcast. That is our raison d'etre. Without hyperbole; Jane's story of being a young widow could appear in the dictionary under ‘Inspiring'. Grief, art and finding joy again. Oh…and roller-skating. On a personal note I can say that Jane has lived through my deepest fear and is now thriving. I've found a new hero. This was the episode I joined the team and I'm so glad I did. Producer Ant
