Jim White and Guy Picciotto return to discuss Jim’s new album Inner Day, the beginning of New York City’s Zohran Mamdani era, Jim’s recent shows with Ed Kuepper, Jim’s decision to write lyrics and sing them, his relationship with words and their power, Jim briefly singing on a Hard Quartet song, my favourite song of the year, “I Don’t Do / Grand Central” and how this collaboration with Zoh Amba came to pass, dancing with your musical instrument, their new trio with Colleen Burke, contributing music to a Jem Cohen film, new ideas, other future plans, and much more.

Alex Ross Perry, Scott Kannberg, and Robert Greene are here to discuss their film Pavements, whether or not it’s a comedy, documentary subjects who reflect pluralities, how the band reacted to aspects of the in-progress film they saw, who was responsible for giving the film its final narrative structure, deceptive complexity and intellectual malarkey, why it’s good that Pavement maniacs are already seeing and contemplating this strange film, the forthcoming Pavements soundtrack and a significant Pavement announcement, other future plans, and much more.

Filmmaker Lance Bangs and Pavement’s Bob Nastanovich discuss the new film Pavements, how they met in the early 1990s when Lance began filming shows by the likes of Pavement, the Replacements, and Nirvana, his mentor Jem Cohen, the story behind Lance’s 2002 Pavement DVD/documentary Slow Century, what Kurt Cobain said to Bob at the Reading Festival that Nirvana invited Pavement to play, what David Berman yelled at the Lollapalooza audience that infamously flung mud and rocks at Pavement, why Bob thinks adding Rebecca Clay Cole as a member is the most interesting thing about recent Pavement tours, unusual depictions of Pavement and their crew and why releasing Alex Ross Perry’s Range Life biopic was reconsidered by all involved, how Pavement’s members really feel about the project, what’s next for Pavement, Bob, and Lance, other future plans, and much more.
