Top 5 Songs for your Mental Health with Chris & Stu from Hardcore Listing

The Proper Mental Podcast

Welcome to episode 156, where I’m joined by Chris & Stu from Hardcore Listings for a men’s mental health awareness month special!

I reached out to the lads to borrow the Hardcore Listings format and do a Top 5 and they chose to do songs that are good for your mental health.

I also really love how comfortable both Chris & Stu are talking about things like mental health and emotions and all the things that men are always told they don’t speak about.

I also love the way they talk about this stuff, with humour and compassion.

These deeper conversations can be fun as well, it doesn’t always have to be serious and official and I wanted to show that with this episode.

We chat about sadness, grief, mental health and bad days and we chat about happy memories, good times and great songs.

We chat about The Bee Gees, Kae Tempest, Reef, Royal Blood, Sage Francis and the Grease soundtrack and we also chat about feeling your feelings and why music can feel like a hug when you need one.

You can check out all the songs from this episode on this Spotify playlist!
