How'd You End Up Doing That?

In this episode, we're going to be speaking to Rob Jones from DASH Mental Health and Wellbeing about how he went from studying music at the Royal Welsh College of music and drama, to teaching in a prison to eventually setting up his own company supporting the needs of young people in schools.

Rob talks a lot about school avoidance, behavioural issues, ADHD, learning difficulties and learning needs. It's a really interesting chat that follows his journey and also looks at how the brain works in parts.

In this first episode of How'd You End Up Doing That? We speak to Mark Mansfield from Nation.Cymru about how he went from reporting on local football stories for Charlton Athletic to running the leading national news publication in Wales.

Towards the end of the episode we talk about Mark's appearance on a compilation album for Cherry Red Records - I couldn't include the song in the pod, but here's a link to it on Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/track/3e7l4HieftVSHvu3KDZEFB?si=e59ee78d6bfa4938
