We're Ryan, Dan, and Ant, three 20 something lads, from Birkenhead, who love football. 24% of women and 13% of men in England are diagnosed with depression in their lifetime. But men are three times more likely to die from suicide than women. We wanted to know why. Join us every Monday and Friday as we speak to people from the wide world of football, all about Mental Health, in an attempt to learn more about it, and encourage men to feel more comfortable talking about their health and wellbeing, and attempt to remove the stigma that still surrounds the topic.

Episode Five:
Therapy, a healthy work-life balance, and dealing with racism.
On an overcast day at the beginning of March, when the lockdown was still some way off, Ant and Dan drove down to Southampton to interview Carl Anka.
Carl currently works for The Athletic UK, as the reporter for Southampton FC. Carl has also written for The Guardian, Buzzfeed, The BBC, and Vice.
We discussed Carl's background, his views on the reasons why men don't open up, his troubles with mental health, and navigating the murky world of racism. Carl's thoughts, his honesty, and his light-hearted approach to the topic made for an amazing few hours in Carl's delightful company.
