Welcome to beyond the call
Beyond The Call is a Podcast with a difference.. We talk to people who work in, or are involved with the occupations that can be considered High Trauma. This is often much more than the surface blood, guts and death that most people think of, and it is our mission to bring you these stories. We talk to those with lived experience, world renowned experts in Mental Health, PTSD, Moral Injury and other areas of research and support.
