    Hello! My guest this week is my pal DARREN GIBSON. Darren is someone I met through mutual friends, mutual music interests and I suppose you could say mutual moodiness, which is perhaps why we've kept in touch. In this podcast we discuss Darren's time living in Canada, Stephen King, why time travel or 'the good old days' might be overrated, writing and of course mental health. Thanks Darren!  Keep up with Darren:  Twitter: @darrensgibson Instagram: darrenscottgibson  A short story by Darren Gibson 'Sakatchewan'
