Post author By vish
Post date February 12, 2026

Elizabeth Nelson returns to discuss the Paranoid Style and their new album, Known Associates, life near Washington D.C., a recap of our recent discussion about the Replacements’ Let It Be reissue, a brief overview of American paranoia, her penchant for wordy lyrics and how that impacts her as a singer, some of her favourite sincerely humorous songwriters, Scott Joplin’s “The Entertainer” and Bob Dylan’s “Love and Theft,” her love of musicals and nodding to other people’s songs, why I think she might dig Carolyn Mark, playing rare shows, other future plans, and much more.

1 Comment on All Things Konsidered: ‘Let God Sort ‘Em Out’ by Clipse

My son, who is 13, and I have both been rather excited about the new album by Clipse coming out and when it finally did on July 11, Let God Sort ‘Em Out lived up to the hype. We’ve been listening to it and analyzing it so much, we decided to do a pod about it, so, please enjoy listening to a dad and his son talk about a rap record they like and some of the stories behind Let God Sort ‘Em Out.

Featuring music produced by Levon Khanna.
