Summary

Don’t Wait Until Tomorrow to listen to this Faith Adjacent deep dive on the life and lyrics of John Mayer. Host Erin Moon is Bold as Love as she explores John Mayer’s Shadow Days, Katy Perry conspiracy theories, and what to do when you can’t Say What You Need to Say. This conversation is framed around the larger concept of musical torchbearers because Who Says we can’t have someone take us to church when they may not actually know how to get there themselves?

Disclaimer: You might want to Stop This Train if you have little ears around as we dive into some of John’s more scandalous interviews.
