   Talk Tonight Season 2 Episode 1

   🎙️ Talk Tonight – Season 2, Episode 1: “Life and Tribulation” It’s been around 2–3 months since the last episode, and after some time away to reset — I’m back behind the mic. 🎧 This one’s raw, real, and straight from the heart. ❤️ It’s about life, loss, and mental health — and it’s dedicated to my mate Shane, who’s now facing stage 4 lung and liver cancer after the heartbreaking loss of his daughter Phoebe. 💔 We also pay tribute to Ricky Hatton, a man who’s been open about his mental health battles, his struggles outside the ring, and the recent loss he suffered in early September. Ricky’s story reminds us that even our heroes fight battles the world doesn’t always see. 🥊 From grassroots football to the boxing ring, the message stays the same — keep talking, keep fighting, and never give up. ⚽💬 🎧 Talk Tonight is back — Season 2 starts now: “Life and Tribulation.”

   Talk Tonight Episode 12

   🎙️ TALK TONIGHT PODCAST - EPISODE 12 🎙️ 🎧 Title: “Fathers, Sons, and Finding Hope” "Being a dad is the hardest thing I’ve ever done. I didn’t grow up with a father myself — just my mum and gran — so a lot of this journey, I’ve been winging it." "This episode is personal. It’s about what it’s like to be a dad. The real, honest side of fatherhood — including the struggles, the heartache, and the mistakes. Divorce, separation, and the pain of thinking you may never see your kids again. But it's also about the love, the strength, and the commitment that keeps you going. You can never stop trying, never stop being there for your children, no matter how tough it gets." "It’s my version of being a father, and I hope it resonates with others who’ve been through similar struggles." 🧠 Men’s mental health matters. 👨👦 Fatherhood isn’t always simple. 💔 Sometimes we struggle — and that’s okay. 💪 Never stop being there for your kids. If you’re a dad… if you’ve ever felt lost… or if you just want to hear something real — this one’s for you. 📲 Now streaming: Episode 12 of Talk Tonight – “Fathers, Sons, and Finding Hope” Now available on all channels: 🔴 Spotify 🔵 Apple Podcast 🟡 YouTube And coming soon on TikTok! #TalkTonightPodcast #FathersAndSons #MensMentalHealth #FatherhoodJourney #FindingHope #RealTalk #PodcastLife #DadLife #MentalHealthMatters #StruggleAndStrength #NeverGiveUp #NeverStopFightingForYourKids #DivorceAndFatherhood 📌 Resources for Support: 📞 Samaritans – 116 123 (24/7 free support) 💬 CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably) – 0800 58 58 58 🧠 Mind – 0300 123 3393 🛠️ Men’s Sheds Association – Support groups for men ⚖️ Families Need Fathers – fnf.org.uk 👨👧 DAD.info – Guidance for dads facing separation 📚 Both Parents Matter (Wales) – Support for separated dads 🤝 Fathers Network Scotland – Advocacy & resources for dads Let’s keep talking.
