Dive into The Giant Pod with Andy Wrintmore.

Joining Andy this week is Ted Talks legend Aaron Stark, who's talk 'I Was Almost a School Shooter' has over 11 million views on YouTube. Aaron talks very deeply and personally about the conditions of his upbringing, and the combination of internal and external factors that threatened to lead him down a very dark path.

Andy and Aaron have a conversation that proves that even from darkness, hope can shine through. They discuss the positive aftermath of Aaron's talk, including the media opportunities that followed. Crucially, they discuss how our ostensibly mundane interactions can carry such significance to those who are struggling.
