In this episode, hosts Kelly and JJ take on another number of firearm suicide myths--including the one that states that suicide rates increase during the holiday season. To do so, they're joined by three great experts--who also happen to be great friends—Sarah Brady Fellow Dr. Kyleanne Hunter, PsychArmor's Dr. Heidi Kraft, and clinical psychologist Dr. Ted Bonar. Together, they talk about how to handle tough topics like the heightened risk of suicide that may come with people being physically isolated, increased gun sales, how to reach out to people that you love, and to ways to store firearms safely.
