Darren joins Genevieve to reminisce about his rise to fame and monster success in Savage Garden before splitting and forging a solo career.
In an open and honest chat, he explains why he quietly quit the music industry in 2012 and why he's now ready to take it on again - as his true self.
He also talks about being a parent to an Instagram dog, studying comedy for three years and his foray into podcasting, his love of Star Wars and his secret trick to borrowing Jean Paul Gaultier's clothes.
