I’ve wanted to chat to Jonno Seidler since 2022. I was standing in a queue at Palermo Airport, waiting for a flight back to London, when a friend sent me an excerpt from his memoir, It’s a Shame About Ray. I was immediately captivated by his writing, his honesty, and his bravery.

I grew up around Jonno but reading his memoir, I realised there was so much I didn't know. His experience of bipolar disorder, his dad’s struggles with depression, the shame that surrounded both, and the role that music and creativity have played in helping him make sense of it all.

In this episode, we talk about the pressure to succeed, the myth of the tortured artist, and how Jonno finds time to write—between a full-time job, two girls under four, and a looming book deadline.

We finish with the song Jonno is listening to on repeat, which I am now obsessed with.

I loved this chat. I hope you do too.

JYK 🤍
