The Nutters Club host Mike King The story of a gay man's battle with depression will feature on Maori Television's The Nutters Club tonight. The show is a filmed adaptation of Mike King's Radio Live show, which deals with mental health issues in an upfront way. The Nutters Club features a resident clinical psychiatrist and an assortment of guests. It aims to break the taboo around mental health and provide a place for open discussion, allowing people sharing their thoughts and experiences, look for help, seek understanding, discover like-minded people and even having a good laugh. Tonight's guest is Ivan Yeo, who works for the Mental Health Foundation and its Like Minds Like Mine campaign. He tells his inspiring story about realising he was gay in strictly Muslim Malaysia and his struggle with depression. The Nutters Club screens on Maori TV at 10pm tonight.
