World Mental Health Day

Since launching in 2018, Conversations Against Living Miserably has paired interesting and relatable stories with comedy, giving listeners new resources to get them through.

Hosted by Aaron Giles and Lauren Pattinson, the five new episodes will include conversations with Kiri Pritchard Mclean, Riyadh Khalaf, Jessica Fostekew, Jen Brister and Brett Goldstein.

Che Lingo, Arlo Parks and Kojey Radical will each perform one of their songs and candidly share their mental health experiences with one another, as well as recounting personal stories that have inspired their music.

Jordan Stephens, one half of Rizzle Kicks and founder of the mental health campaign #IAMWHOLE, will host the programme.

Stephens said: “Our intention is to shed light on mental health from the perspective of cultures not often centred in the conversation.
