"Substance abuse was my inner child driving my life… and the day I moved him to the back seat and took control... I became sober, and my life changed forever" Darren Maule, one of South Africa's most endearing (& busiest) entertainers, reveals a deeply personal side of his life in this exclusive Podcast interview. Join Darren & Elana as they journey through Darren's tumultuous life as a young child (where substance abuse might have sneakily planted a seed in Darren's attitude towards his home life) and move all the way to a remarkable adult life with numerous awards & successes in entertainment, acting, and presenting.
