Imran Yusuf: From Video Games to Classism and Mental Health

Video games have had a positive impact on my life because I was like: look, just look at the art, listen to the music, play the game and enjoy the experience that when you become good at a video game, it's so much fun when you're good at again like it's.
Imagine growing up in a working-class family and finding solace in video games. That's the story of comedian Imran Yusuf, who joins Chris PG in this episode of 'Mental Health Bar'. Imran opens up about his childhood, revealing how video games were more than just a pastime—they were a coping mechanism for life's challenges. He dives into how these experiences shaped his perspective on mental health and self-development, impacting both his career and personal life.
But the conversation doesn't stop there. Imran and Chris tackle the heavy topic of systemic classism in the UK, exploring how language and identity play crucial roles in our mental well-being. And if you're a Star Wars fan, you'll love Imran's unique take on how the iconic series could one day become a universal belief system. This episode is a rollercoaster of emotions, blending humor with deep, thought-provoking discussions.
Whether you're interested in mental health, social issues, or just need a good laugh, this episode has something for everyone.
