In the classic fashion I am starting right now, I asked my guest, Michael Downie to write an introduction for himself:"Today I’m speaking to a good friend of mine. We met back in the older, halcyon days of YouTube content creation where no one knew PewDiePie was a racist, Fortnite didn’t exist and you could find an audience by simply being a dork and playing your favourite games. Since those days he’s come off the platform, made some music, written a novel, smashed his way out of a glass cage of emotion and rebuilt his life from rock bottom. He’s a student of sumptuous, stupendous, symphonic, smilies, synonyms, syllables and synthesisers, a man who hates unnecessary alliteration and is the owner of a mighty fine beard."I am thrilled to have such a good friend and all around genuine, interesting, and intelligent person as the first guest on this podcast. Ladies and gentlemen, without further ado... Michael Downie!
