Episode 3 - Mehdi’s Story

Wednesday Aug 16, 2023
Todays story is not funny, nor is it very long, however I thought as Mehdi took the time to send it in, the least I could do is read it out for everyone.
Mehdi is an Afghani-Australian who emigrated to Australia in 2009 at 15 Years old, upon finishing school he joined the Military in 2015 and was deployed to Afghanistan in 2017.
We would love to get Mehdi on the pod in the future to tell his story fully, but for now, here is a short synopsis.
