from 2016-02-14T12:04:55
In episode 8 of The OCD Stories podcast I interviewed Jack Pridmore. Jack was in the 2013 BBC documentary 'Extreme OCD Camp'. Jack is now focusing on getting his degree, and raising awareness for OCD.
The audio cuts out the recording a couple times for a few seconds. This was due to bad internet signal. If it goes silent for a few seconds please keep listening :-)
