Listen "Joe Donnelly"
Episode Synopsis
For the latest podcast we spoke to journalist and writer Joe Donnelly about his book 'Checkpoint: How Video Games Power Up Minds, Kick Ass, and Save Lives'. Joe is a gaming enthusiast and mental health advocate and 'Checkpoint' considers the intersections of video games and mental health, and explores his belief that the interactive nature of games makes them uniquely placed to educate and inform. Joe and Ali discuss this thesis, as well as the personal story that underpins the book. It's a fascinating, honest, and insightful discussion which will be of interest to everyone, whether you consider yourself a gamer or not.
