Ep. #1071: Buck 65

Post author By vish
Post date February 26, 2026

Buck 65 makes a rare reappearance to discuss his excellent new album, Do Not Bend, musical brevity, Joe Pernice inspiring him to start an insightful Substack, writing jokes and stories that wind up as rhymes, befriending the late great Biz Markie and hanging out backstage at a Beastie Boys show, meeting Lou Reed but being low key about their creative kinship, acquiring the four-track he once used in the mid-1990s to create new music but also incorporating Ableton, obvious and oblique pop culture references, when you don’t know where the words come from, why it’s healthy to listen to your own work, difficult time signatures for rappers, a loving celebration of vinyl record culture, many future plans, a hidden phone number, and much more.

Ep. #1033: Shad

Post author By vish
Post date October 30, 2025

Shad returns to discuss his new album Start Anew, the connections between its title and his 2005 debut, When This is Over, and a Hayden song, persona, the person, and ego death, yearning for challenges in life and creative work, conquering the fear of stories ending, anti-capitalism, technocracy, and the fact that the inventor of A.I. believes there’s a small chance it might kill all of us and people are ignoring him, the devaluation of music, addiction and smartphones, ending another musical chapter, touring, other future plans, and much more!
