Mantor has recently guest interviewed on popular podcasts including showboat TV in the U.K., and Tony Llyod Human stories podcast, to talk about the launch of Why Not Me The World, and what inspired him to produce the podcast.

"The purpose of this podcast is to create a platform for people from around the world to share experiences in their life and the challenges they face or have gone through," Mantor says. "This is to help others listening that may be facing some of the same challenges in their life, that others around the world have faced those same challenges and continue to live their life, one day at a time. Hopefully this podcast will inspire hope and show they are not alone in this world."
