Episode description

In today’s first-ever, special pilot, episode Steve and Hew catch up to chat about:

  • Why the risk of depression doubles after a COVID infection

  • How COVID affects the brain (including why we lose our sense of taste/smell)

  • And what we can do to protect ourselves and the people we love from this rarely talked about side-effect.


Thanks so much for being here and we really hope you enjoy!
