Welcome back to other people's lives. I'm Joe Sanagato. I'm Greg Dybeck. As always guys, we just put out merch

so you can go to shop.oplshow.com to purchase some

portion of the proceeds. We'll go to charity anyway Greg. What do we have today?

So we have a little bit of a different episode in a way. This is actually the first time I will say that

that we got an email from someone today.

Yeah, only hours earlier. Right. And we thought that it made so much sense for an episode that we kind of

did everything we needed to do to put this together and now here we are. And we are talking to a

suicide survivor. I think this past week especially, suicide has been a mainstream topic.

Obviously most recently, Anthony Bourdain, Kate Spade, even we were talking about a VG wasn't, you know, too long ago.

So a lot of these celebrity suicides that have been in the news, looking at some stats now on CNN.

Just in this past week, calls to the suicide hotline went up 65%. Text grew 116%.

byproduct of the show is that there have been, I guess some mental health conversations here

or conversations I have stemmed from the show around mental health. And I know we don't really look at this show as

a mental health show. And I think, you know, we know we're not experts, you know, at all. So we kind of don't

always have those conversations head on. But, you know, with everything that is going on, we just felt like this

platform that we have, you know, sort of makes sense for a conversation like this. And we got an email from a guy

who kind of shared his story with us. And, you know, luckily he is a, you know, survivor of this and has kind of turned

into a mental health advocate. And, you know, for us, this is just really offering up the platform. I don't know, you know,

what we really have to add to this conversation. I think we spoke enough last week too, you know, to be honest.

But really just offering up this platform and kind of sitting back, listening, learning. And, you know, hopefully this is a

conversation from someone who's, you know, gone through this that can help a lot of people. Yeah, I just like I came
