School. That smell of anxious teenage fear, disinfectant, plastic chairs and wooden floors.
For many it invokes stress, more fear, anxiety, deep-seeded trauma. For others it was the time of their lives.
Today, Tim & J introduce a new game to go through the highs and lows of school life, and how it shaped our adult selves: Formative or Traumative?
From rogue teachers who really needed sacking, to years of bullying, the positive life experiences and the lifelong lessons learned about self-assurance, they go through it all... they needed a therapy cat in the room for this one.
And in Man vs Mind Uncut – J tells us how a house party he went to as a teenager resulted in all of the house's doors getting lost... seriously.

Now he’s bringing that expertise to The Male Room — a podcast where data-driven medicine meets common sense.
