Newman returns to discuss The Former Site Of by the New Pornographers, life in New York State, playing more mandolin in his home recording studio, R.E.M. snobbery, not knowing about a nearby Dry Cleaning show, and understanding fans who come and go, songs about grieving and newfound flower expertise and songs people misunderstand, spirituality and social media, how the song “Calligraphy” references the 2025 arrest of the band’s former drummer on serious criminal charges, accepting loss, touring line-ups and upcoming shows, other future plans, and much more.

Ep. #1078: Geologist

Brian Weitz is here to discuss the solo debut by Geologist, Can I Get a Pack of Camel Lights?, his previous academic and vocational pursuits in environmental and ocean policy on Capitol Hill, how his interest in playing the hurdy gurdy led him to Ben Grossman, Guelph, Ontario, and my inbox a few years ago, why a Keiji Haino show at the New York City club Tonic made a huge impression on him as a university student, his friendship with the late David Berman and smoking the last cigarette David gave him after he died, his interest in drone, noise, and artists on the SST record label, how much he has always loved Pavement, a tangent about the life-saving film Spies Like Us, future plans for Animal Collective and himself, and much more.
