EPISODE SUMMARY:
The reality of the human experience is such that there are many aspects to life which no one can escape completely. And to try and deny yourself the full range of emotions is an act of futility that is not only pointless but actually impossible. Better to embrace the darkness and find a way through to the light, as in the case of mythic folk persona Nick Drake whose 1972 album Pink Moon may be one of the beautifully saddest pieces of art ever made. And its many hidden messages are not lost upon comedian, podcaster and psychedelic philosopher Duncan Trussell.
