In the final episode of series 4, Paul and Mine welcome the legendary Alison Moyet - the unmistakable voice behind Yazoo and one of the defining artists of the 80s alongside contemporaries like Depeche Mode - for a profoundly honest exploration of creativity, identity and neurodivergence.
Alison reflects on growing up dyslexic in the 70s, feeling out of place, and discovering in later life that ADHD had been the invisible thread running through her childhood, her career, and even her early days emerging from the Essex electronic scene. She talks candidly about parenting neurodivergent children, navigating education systems that didn’t understand her, and how finally receiving an ADHD diagnosis helped her forgive decades of self-blame. Alison’s storytelling is warm, self-aware and richly human.
