Our take on Scarred for Life podcast

Scarred for Life is like therapy for your pop culture traumas. Host Andy Bush teams up with authors Stephen Brotherstone and Dave Lawrence to unpack the darker corners of '70s and '80s pop culture. Every week, they and a guest explore those things that left a lasting—sometimes haunting—impression on them as kids. It's a compelling listen that not only revisits what scared us growing up but also explores how those fears have shaped us today. Definitely worth a listen if you're up for an emotional nostalgia trip. Andy Bush is a multi-talented media personality, best known for his afternoon slot on Absolute Radio. A Bristol native, he led the West Country's top commercial radio show for a decade. He also contributes writings and illustrations to the Huffington Post.
