Welcome to Season 2 of Unseen & Unheard: the podcast aiming to change the way we see schizophrenia by revealing the untold and unfiltered stories of those actually living with it. Each episode, we’ll hear from some of the millions of adults in the US living with the condition through intimate, honest conversations about things that make us laugh, cry, think, and most importantly, remind us of how connected we truly are no matter what challenges we face. Hosted by motivational speaker, content creator, nonprofit founder and mental health advocate Kody Green, who lives with schizophrenia. The artwork for this podcast was created by artists living with schizophrenia.

The Unseen & Unheard podcast is sponsored by the Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson. The host and guests have been compensated by Janssen for their time participating in this podcast. The views and stories they share today about their experiences with schizophrenia are their own.

Bedrock, USA is a podcast about political extremism, small town life and the fight for democracy, hosted by Laura Bliss, a reporter at Bloomberg CityLab. 

In a super-divided, pandemic-era America awash in conspiracies and misinformation, it’s about a group of people who didn’t like what they saw happening in their local governments, and decided to get involved - whether that meant holding a rally, running for office, recalling an official or storming their government with bullhorns and threats. 

Their stories show how far-right ideologies enter into local politics - sometimes quietly, other times at full volume - and what it takes for regular people to fight back. They show the beauty as well as the risks, struggles and pitfalls of being an active participant in democracy today. And together they create a human-level portrait of a democracy that is fracturing, and the role that extremist ideologies are playing. (And they’re not going away.)

Where do their stories point us as a country?

"About Effing Time" is what George, Adrian and Andrew hope their audience say at least once each episode. The three hosts knew each other virtually, but after meeting in person at Watches and Wonders 2022 and filming an impromptu YouTube video together, there was an instant camaraderie that has led to a follow-up podcast. The trio come from different backgrounds but have found common ground in their unending interest in and passion for watches. As well as taking the piss out of each other. Check out the series on YouTube and listen to it on Apple Podcast, Spotify, TuneIn and Google Podcasts.Subscribe to the About Effing Time YouTube channel here. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqRdOESEo9GGB1zh4YW1iKw
