This episode is one of the hardest conversations we've ever had on The School Podcast.
Michael shares the story no parent should ever have to tell. One moment he was at work living a normal day, the next he received a phone call that would change his life forever.
In this raw and emotional conversation, Michael opens up about losing his son Josh to knife crime, the hours spent in hospital hoping for good news, the moment doctors told him there was nothing more they could do, and the reality of trying to rebuild life after unimaginable loss.
What follows is an honest discussion about grief, trauma, fatherhood, resilience and why the impact of knife crime extends far beyond a single victim.
This is a powerful reminder that every statistic has a family behind it, every headline has a story, and every life lost leaves people trying to make sense of a new reality.
A huge thank you to our sponsors, Nisai Learning, for supporting The School Podcast and helping us continue to share important conversations that need to be heard.
