Podcasts by The Bet on Yourself and Double Down Podcast: Hosted by James Puckett
Hello and welcome to The Bet on Yourself and Double Down Podcast: Hosted by James Puckett. This is a podcast that I have decided to start in an attempt to have conversations with interesting people across a variety of disciplines including: mental health, public health, journalism, art, broadcasting, the military, and the medical communities. While I have identified these disciplines, my hope is to continue to expand to become as inclusive as possible.
