Woo-goo! Special conversation with Darren! Looking forward to it! Recently he has mentioned, in an episode of "Sorry for Rambling" with Alex Kack, the story of him performing "Ray of light" on rehearsals while Madonna was in the audience.

Friends have been nagging me for years about various podcasts and I never really got into that until today: 5 in the rowing! I guess the reason being Madonna. And what also makes your podcast captivating is that you're a pure musicophile who does not limit to Madonna. It also puts a (sexy) voice behind the website madonnarama. Thank you for sharing. Brice
