Ep. #1116: Robyn Hitchcock

Post author By vish
Post date July 23, 2026

Robyn Hitchcock is here to discuss his new memoir, Stranded in the Future, and his new album, The Confuser, surreal song and prose writing, being haunted by lifelong muses, a fear of being boring, pondering parenting and figuring yourself out, how attending an all-boys school impacts the empathy you have for people of other genders, why aliens gravitate towards other aliens like Bob Dylan and Syd Barrett, depicting one’s own transcendent dreams and trips, celebrating the past, nostalgia, and sentimentality, a nod to Nick Lowe, loving trams and trolley cars, writing books on your phone, upcoming events, other future plans, and much more.

Ep. #1097: American Football

Post author By vish
Post date May 26, 2026

Steve Holmes and Steve Lamos from American Football are here to discuss American Football (LP4), the joys of marking final papers by the college students you teach, the story behind the alluring, unsettling drum part in “Man Overboard” and an appreciation for James Bond soundtrack songs, why Lamos left and returned to American Football in recent years, the factual aspects of LP4’s lyrical themes and thoughts on Mike Kinsella’s direct, unadorned vocals, whether my theory that the album flows like a theatrical production has legs, a shoutout to English degrees, working with producer Sonny DiPerri in California and a surprising but very welcome surfing lesson, playing many shows, other future plans, and much more!
