Ed Kuepper and Mudhoney’s Mark Arm from The Saints ’73-’78 discuss the new (I’m) Stranded box set, how they’d never ever met in person (at the time we recorded this), why Mark was asked to sing in the Saints and what the band has meant to him, how the Saints got started and their early interest in Elvis, Beatles, and the Rolling Stones, why AC/DC and their success in Australia didn’t much motivate the Saints, how Mark first heard the Saints and whether or not they’re unheralded, why Ed and Mark’s music strikes a good balance between aggression and humour, what’s special about this box set, an Ed and Jim White collaboration, what’s next for the Saints and Mudhoney, tour dates, other future plans, and much more.

Ann Powers discusses her wondrously written new book, Traveling: On the Path of Joni Mitchell, Pacific Northwest punk bands like D.O.A. and Nomeansno, how she positioned her role in writing this book after years of research and dozens of interviews, her decision about pursuing an interview with Mitchell herself, perspectives on motherhood and what it meant for Mitchell to be a woman in music starting in the 1960s and how that era is perceived today, the problematic critiques of that time period by Mitchell and other artists, Ann’s own trajectory as a lover and critic of music, what it means to interrogate the work of people you love, how artists who have had medical scares like Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, and Neil Young might gain a new appreciation for their own work and audiences, Ann’s upcoming book tour dates, her work on the NPR music newsletter, other future plans, and much more.
