In this episode we were extremely lucky to get Kenneth Reitz\\non the show to discuss his experiences when he had a mental health event that\\nresulted in a stay in the hospital and some major life changes as a result.

\\n\\n

Normally we’re a comedy podcast that focusses on technology, but issues\\nsurrounding mental health are very important to us. We’re extremely grateful\\nthat Kenneth came on and was very open about what happened to him.

\\n\\n

We hope you enjoy what was a great, open, freewheeling discussion about\\nhow the symptoms of some mental illnesses appear beneficial from the outside.
