In this episode, I discuss the mental health challenges of lockdown and modern life Tanya Morgan and Harriet Summerfield. We cover counselling options, wellbeing, self-care and healthy routines.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This is a bonus episode for season 2. Season 3 will return in October 2023 when we’ll be talking to Joe Hillcox about music, games, and joining the force. Other things to look forward to next season are Dan “Dan the Banjo Man” Walsh, including a live performance, a call from Las Vegas discussing <em>Stranger Things </em>for Halloween, and Peter Morgan from Fish Records talking about those round things with a hole in the middle that spin and make a noise. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If you like what you hear, and you can afford it, you can make a one-off donation to us via:</p><p><a href=\"https://ko-fi.com/coupleofdrips?utm_source=https://shows.acast.com/acod\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Ko-Fi.com</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>You can buy us a coffee by going to <a href=\"https://www.buymeacoffee.com/coupleofdrips?utm_source=https://shows.acast.com/acod\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Buy Me A Coffee!</a> We like coffee!
