In episode 23 it was class to be joined by Marty Rafo owner of M.D Music School, Armagh. "You'll Never Be Alone" reached No1 in the UK and Irish Rock charts. Marty has played many gigs, some alongside the likes of Feeder and Reef. He has also performed to US troops in Fort Bliss Texas. Currently holds residencies at some top venues in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Won Armagh's Inspirational Educator of the year and performs many a gig for charities and fundraiser events.

Joining me for episode 22 was the "legend" Johnny Simpson, from the bottom to the top. Johnny speaks about his passion for hiking, how an injury brought him to his knees but from there he looked up. Discussing the setbacks and impact on his mental well-being, being male and not supposed to talk about mental health, felt like giving up but instead completely turned his life around, creating new habits, building new goals and achieving his dreams. Another powerful episode with another gentleman.
