Über diesen Titel
In this powerful episode of Frankie’s Pod, host Frankie Dunn sits down with Mick Riley MBE, former Army veteran and founder of Tommy’s Lounge, for an honest and deeply moving conversation.
Mick opens up about his upbringing in Merseyside, what drove him to join the Army, and the realities of military life—from the unbreakable camaraderie to the personal battles faced behind the scenes. He speaks candidly about dealing with testicular cancer during his service, the challenges of transitioning back into civilian life, and the often-overlooked mental health struggles many veterans face.
The conversation also explores how shared experiences and peer support can be life-changing, leading Mick to create Tommy’s Lounge—a safe, welcoming space where veterans can connect, talk openly, and support one another without judgment.
This episode is a raw and heartfelt exploration of resilience, identity, and community, shining a light on the importance of looking after those who have served—and reminding us that no one has to face their battles alone.
