What’s Coming This Episode?

If you’ve seen the news of late you may have noticed the wall to wall politics. The UK withdrawing in on it’s self, and the US now doing similar. Both are still functioning democracies but, for a small percentage of each population, 2016 marked a turning of the tide towards a very different world. Where does fascism arise and what is it’s appeal? What are the warning size and how can we combat it?

Enjoy the show, it’s The Self Help Podcast!
