The Great Escape! Emo's original outlaw, best dressed bad boy and criminally good songwriter, Martin Johnson, is our guest on Episode 326 of Sappenin' Podcast! The Boys Like Girls leader takes time out on board the Emo's Not Dead Crusie 2025, to get deep on the bands reformation, punk vs pop acceptance and life at sea. In this conversation, Martin mixes between unholy chaos and honestly hard truths, as we discuss musics mental battles, not recognising his younger self, drug addiction vs sobriety, blocking out their Love Drunk era, time away from the band, writing for other artists, The Night Game, reconnecting with his BLG identity, reunion catalysts, changing their media perception, new music, pop-culture crossover, having Ashley Tisdale in a music video, that Taylor Swift rumour, wild tour tattoo regrets, commitments to a leather jackets, how listening to The Used made him quit ska, plectrum vs guitar pic incidents and more! Turn it up and join Sean and Morgan to find out Sappenin' this week!
