Life As An Outsider

I was blessed to be able to interview one of my favorite musicians alongside my cohost Tyler: Mike Donehey, known for Tenth Avenue North and his books “Finding God’s Life for My Will” and “Grace in the Gray”. Mikes writing and music has been such an encouragement to me, so being able to chat with him was wonderful. Give this one a listen; I think you’ll like it!

Hey all- let me introduce myself! I’m Jake Schneider. I’m a podcast host, a follower of Jesus, and an advocate for men’s mental health.

June is men’s mental health month, and I wanted to share my story: I attempted su***de at 16. Instead of losing my life, I gave it to Jesus. The next 10+ years included: bouts of depression and anxiety, periods of joy and sorrow, and growth in my own faith as I constantly fail to live up to what I preach; but, I keep trying and I keep growing. The biggest thing I’ve learned is this: share and invite. Share your story, and invite people into your life. Sorrow and joy ebb and flow. But you’ll never be a worse person for sharing and inviting. This June, check in on the men in your life. It’s a lonely road sometimes. And men- effing talk about life. Don’t hide it.

Hey Outsiders! I wanted to ask you all- if we were to do a live, IN PERSON, episode this fall, would you be interested in that? We would have a fun new guest, take audience questions, and of course give away free stuff! Give me a yes or no, and thanks for being part of this journey!

Hey Outsiders- I’ve never directly asked you all to contribute financially before, but this is HUGE!

I'm fundraising to go to New Jersey for an interview with content creator John Rondi of JohnnyDrinks, host of On the Rocks podcast. This is important to me because I have followed John and his father for some time on social media, and the content they create together has been inspiring to me as an artist. Please consider donating, to take part of what has made Life as an Outsider so special: the people. Be part of the crew and get a shout out at the end of the episode, and a chance to win a special prize!

The money will go towards travel costs, including: gas money, food, and prizes to give away. Lodging has been covered, but gas and food are the biggest expenses by far. Link to the GoFundMe in the comments!
