Actor, poet and performer Dan Whitlam joins me for a raw & gripping conversation about some of the defining moments of his life, including the traumatic event of being stabbed at the formative age of 16.

Dan opens up about meeting his attacker years later, redefining masculinity through vulnerability & transforming pain into powerful art.

We also discuss his brand new poetry collection I Don't Want To Settle: Words for a Lost Generation, out 4 September at all good book stores, and his upcoming UK tour this autumn.
