The Roarcast

Studies have recently found an increasing amount of people are at risk of hearing damage and that part of that is down to the volume at which we consume music. Is it possible to enjoy a gig without damaging your ears? And how do we know if we're at risk? On this episode of In Focus, Beth and Tom are joined by Tom Trones from Minuendo. Tom is passionate about music, a guitar player and backing singer who has made it his passion to maintain our enjoyment of music whilst protecting our hearing with the Minuendo earplugs. We hope you enjoy the episode! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------NB: This isn’t a sponsored podcast, but we think the Minuendo earplugs are a great idea, so if you want to check them out, here's a link - https://www.minuendo.com/----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Check out our second channel (ROAR!): https://www.youtube.com/c/roarrawrSupport the Podcast----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
