Comparison, Clean Pants and Catherine Wheels with Jack Garratt!

Author: Taylor James May 21, 2025 Duration: 47:54

Welcome to The Waffle Shop!


JACK IS BACKKKK!


Joining me for a round two is the brilliant, BRIT Award Winning, Singer, songwriter Jack Garratt!


Jack opens up about the inspiration behind his haunting new single ‘Catherine Wheel’ and his forthcoming album ‘Pillars’, reflecting on the importance of authenticity in his creative process and how rituals and self-care help him stay grounded in an often chaotic industry.


We also get a bit deep about the realities of body dysmorphia, navigating self-sabotage, and how music has served as both a mirror and a medicine. Jack introduces the concept of love as a structure of three core pillars — self-love, platonic love, and romantic love — and the conversation explores the need for balance and presence in all three.


Despite the heavy topics, Jack brings humour and relatability, reminding us that it’s okay to laugh while healing and that being yourself is the most radical thing you can be.

The Waffle Shop Podcast


Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.


Hosted by Taylor James, The Waffle Shop is built on the idea that the most meaningful talks happen when you’re just chatting about everything and nothing at the same time. This podcast lives in the space where personal stories about music, the realities of mental health, and the daily grind of adult life all intersect. It’s less about finding perfect answers and more about sharing the experience of figuring it out in your thirties, embracing the minor frustrations and small victories that define our days. Each conversation feels like sitting down with friends who aren’t afraid to be honest about the beautiful chaos of their journeys. Taylor brings in a different guest for every episode, and together they have a proper, meandering waffle-digging into past experiences, current challenges, and the odd bit of pop culture. You’ll hear genuine reflections on self-improvement, societal pressures, and the personal journals we all keep in our heads. The result is a comforting, often funny, and deeply human listen that reminds you that navigating life is a shared endeavor. Tune in for a blend of society, culture, and education, all filtered through the lens of real, unscripted conversation.
