About this listen

Can I be honest with you?” Have you ever had a conversation that starts with those six words and ends with the feeling that something in your world has shifted? That is a DMC - a Deep Meaningful Conversation.

A DMC is the 3:00 AM honesty when the world is asleep, defences are down, and you finally listen differently. Born on a long drive back to the breathtaking city of Norwich, this podcast is a dedicated space for the "proper" talks - the ones without the performance, the pretending, or the polished "hot takes" for the sake of it.

Hosts Jono Godlee and Joe Hackman skip the small talk to explore grounded self-development, creativity, and the power of genuine connection. Whether it's through the lens of Jono’s experience as a neurodivergent creative or the perspectives of our guests—family, friends, artists, and community members - we share the messy bits and the real thoughts that usually only happen off-mic.

From the winding roads of Norfolk to the deep internal shifts of the mind, this is a community for the curious and the honest. We’re looking for meaning in the unlikely places and building a space where everyone feels safe enough to say the things that don't usually make it into everyday life.

It’s time to listen differently. It’s time for a DMC.

  • Time For A DMC - Episode 4: Goals & Aspirations - Part 1
    Apr 27 2026

    A goal without a plan is just a wish—but what happens when the "plan" feels like a marathon in a room full of mirrors?

    It’s late April. The New Year’s hype is a distant memory, the "resolutions" have likely gathered dust, and the reality of the daily grind has set in. Today, Jono and Joe are turning the lens inward to look at how we actually build our lives when the "spinning plates" of the modern world won't stop moving.

    In this DMC:

    The AI Reality: Is it a vital tool for the neurodivergent brain or a threat to creative careers? Joe opens up about the "bad place" the film industry finds itself in.

    Beyond Resolutions: Why we’ve stopped trying to "fix" ourselves in January and started looking for "other ways" to grow in the here and now.

    The 150 Rule: Why keeping in touch with friends feels like a Herculean task in a world where we’re expected to be "always available."

    JonoFest & Hosting: The high of the "vibe" vs. the absolute exhaustion of the prep
    .

    Late Bloomers: A reminder that if you haven't "figured it out" yet, you’re in good company (just ask Bryan Cranston or Colonel Sanders).

    Humans weren't designed for the 24/7 digital rush. This episode is about finding your "tribe," protecting your social battery, and mapping out a journey that’s actually yours.

  • Time For A DMC - Episode 3: The Power Of Music
    Apr 19 2026

    That split second of silence before the first note hits... nothing else compares.

    Episode 3 of Time For A DMC is officially LIVE! Today, Jono and Joe are stepping out of the car and into the crowd to explore The Power of Music.

    For a neurodivergent brain, a great gig is often the one place where the noise outside finally matches the volume inside. It’s a pure dopamine hit and a collective experience that somehow feels deeply personal.

    In this DMC:

    First Gigs: Discussing Bastille, Crowded House, and the "core memories" formed at the barriers.

    The Album Experience: Why vinyl forces us to listen to the whole story, from track 1 to 15.

    Vocal Mastery: Breaking down the infectious live presence of Sigrid and the vocal precision of Keane's Tom Chaplin.

    Emotional North Stars: The lyrics that get us through the rough patches and the tracks that make us feel grateful for the here and now.

    "Broken people can get better if they really want to." – Frank Turner. Whether it’s a stadium anthem or a quiet vinyl session, music is the heartbeat of how we connect.
