On Episode 5 of More with Murphy, Ken sits down with a young man named Nathan Rose. A Columbus native, Nathan knows firsthand just how easy it is to tumble from the good life to the gutter. In 2016, Nathan left home for college and was awakened to the stark reality of mental health problems, suicidal ideation, substance abuse, and more.
