Ep. #994: mclusky

Post author By vish
Post date July 8, 2025

Andrew Falkous from mclusky is here to discuss the world is still here and so are we, distinctions between Britons, Canadians, and Americans and how a Vancouver show altered his perception of Canada, Brexit, Donald Trump, Ricky Gervais, Alan Partridge, and Bill Burr, artistic journeys, spite, logic, and how language can be fun and manipulative, why mclusky returned, trying to blow the Jesus Lizard off the stage, mourning his friend and frequent collaborator Steve Albini, mclusky’s penchant for pop, new songs, other future plans, and much more.
