This episode is brought to you by MANUAL, the UK’s leading men’s health service. Today is a podcast first... Joe is recording this episode without his hat on! Why? Because the time has come to have an open conversation around hair loss, and the stigma that comes with it. 50% of men will suffer with hair loss in their lifetime, and we shouldn’t be afraid to talk about it. Our guest today is Mike, who is a senior clinician at MANUAL, and is here to bust some myths, blow our minds with some stats and tell us how to take control of our hair loss. Plus, there is a ridiculous story about when Joe sh ..read more
