If you could make the soundtrack to your life, a mixtape, what songs would you choose? Welcome to Almost a Mirror, a podcast about Australian music from the late 1970s and 80s, where the post-punk world of the Crystal Ballroom collides with the pop icons of Countdown. Come with me, Kirsten Krauth, on a personal journey through music and memory where each episode is sparked by a song.

We enter the mirage, the heat haze of Perth and the Australian interior. We look at drive, in cars and as creative impulse, the loss and longing of touring, and long-distance love, and remember the devotion and faith of David McComb in poetry, lyrics, and friendship. Features interviews with Alsy MacDonald, Jill Birt, Martyn Casey, Rob McComb and Graham Lee from The Triffids.
