Show Notes


Episode on of 'Top 40 or Die Trying is out on Wednesday the 15th of October.

“Top 40 or Die Trying” is the (mostly) true story of Shane Vincent McDermott’s attempt to have a hit single somewhere, anywhere in the world before turning 40 years of age. The journey takes us all around the world and introduces us to a host of wonderful, inspiring artists who teach us that the notion of success is something personal. That one shouldn’t tie their worth to adulation of others. That we are all on our own artistic journeys.  We also meet a few undesirables along the way who are subsequently dealt with.  

Part mockumentary, part surrealist comedy. 8 episodes that each culminate in the recording of a song that tries to emulate the success of Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran and Puff Daddy amongst others.
