226: Rory Scovel
When something goes wrong, it's comedian Rory Scovel's fault. Or at least that's how he seems to feel most of the time. That said, it's hard to believe Scovel is capable of doing any wrong. In additi…

225: Andrew Bird
I didn't have long to chat with Andrew Bird during Bonnaroo, but thankfully I had something to dive right in with: his new album, full of songs written by The Handsome Family (whose music you may rec…

223: Bob Mould
Just in case you were worried (or, conversely, in case you got your hopes up), I'll go ahead right now and say that Bob Mould and I didn't talk about professional wrestling for half an hour during ou…

Jordan Kurland moved to San Francisco 19 years ago with the plan to learn the ropes as a band manager, then move somewhere else. Well, he's still there and still managing bands (like Death Cab, The N…

214: Lou Barlow of Sebadoh and Dinosaur Jr.
I sat down with Lou Barlow in a makeshift arcade to discuss his relationship to his songs, his relationship to live music and his relationship to bad reviews. You know, lots of relationships.

213: Yoni Wolf Of Why?
Yoni Wolf of Why? is a homeowner...with a mortgage. And his place is beautiful. But we didn't spend the entire interview talking about how he bought and renovated his home (although we do spend a lit…

212: Alec Ounsworth of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
Sometimes it's all about context, and that definitely seemed to be the case for Alec Ounsworth of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. He was in the midst of his first acoustic living room tour when I sat down …

211: Ryan Kattner (Honus Honus) of Man Man
Ryan Kattner doesn't consider himself a songwriter or a frontman or even a musician. Never mind the fact that actually fronts Man Man and writes most of the music. But according to him, that approach…

209: Scott Carney of Wax Fang Discusses 'The Astronaut'
Wax Fang just released a 42-minute space rock concept album, and it is epic in every sense of the word. More importantly, though, it's amazing, too! Frontman and guitarist Scott Carney sat down to di…

Mick Foley is a modern day renaissance man — wrestler, author, comedian, Santa impersonator, feminist, Disney Channel enthusiast. Well, I'm not sure about that last one, but he did take his favorite …

206: Tim Harrington of Les Savy Fav
During my conversation with Les Savy Fav frontman Tim Harrington, I realized that he is a paradox wrapped in an enigma wrapped in a beard. He simultaneously embodies what might be seen as a folk art …

In honor of The Best Show on WFMU ending its run of 13 glorious years, I'm revisiting my conversations with Tom Scharpling and Jon Wurster. The show has been such a huge influence on me – not just as…

204: Richard Hell
Not only did Richard Hell belong to the blank generation, he helped create it. He and I talked about what it was like to become a punk rocker when there was no punk rock, his transition from full-tim…

203: Dave and Joe Henry
At first glance, it might seem a little odd that the Henry brothers wrote a Richard Pryor biography (titled "Furious Cool"). But after you hear the story behind the story, it all makes sense — and in…

201: Ted Leo
When it comes to musicians with a punk rock past (and a punk rock present, for that matter), there aren't a lot of folks that are as legit as Ted Leo. I'm not just referring to aesthetics or the know…

There are way too many things I could say about Mac McCaughan and his various endeavors (whether it's Merge Records, Superchunk or his other bands from the past), because they helped shape who I am t…
