I (Pete Normal) interview researcher and professor of marine climate science and my good friend and former musical collaborator, AyK. We discuss what drew us together as friends and songwriting partners, why we stopped being friends, and the ways in which fate brought us back together. We discuss AyK's wild time of touring with Everclear as a guitar tech, and how this led her to pursue meaning and purpose in her life via ecophysiology and biogeochemistry.
AyK can be found on Instagram @queer_rednecks
The intro music is by my recording project, The Burrow. You can hear more and download for free at https://theburro.bandcamp.com/music
Additional music by my band with AyK, Dopamine. The songs were Juice and Icepickindoodle. Look for them on Soundcloud. Outro music was the song Saved By Myself by AyK's band Forsorcerers.
