Okay, here’s what you need to know about this episode.
1) I think it’s one of the best episodes of The James McMahon Music Podcast to date. 2) Savage Garden were a band I loved to bits as a young teenager, so it was a total thrill to have this conversation. 3) Darren’s new single, ‘Poison Blood’ is not only my favourite single released so far this year, but one of the best songs about mental illness I’ve maybe ever heard. 4) I’ve heard big bits of his new solo album, and it’s beautiful. 5) Darren is a Star Wars nerd like me, but, like me, not one of the terrible ones. 6) We talk about shame in this episode – you probably know I do another podcast called Shame, about shame… you should check that out. 7) Darren is very funny. 8) Darren is very smart. 9) I wish we’d talked longer, I’ll have to get him back for part two at some point. 10) Darren is on tour in the UK next year. Tickets are on sale now. You must get one. Two if you’ve got a friend. Do that. Do that now.
