Summary

Paul F. Tompkins welcomes New York to Spontaneanation, recorded in front of a LIVE audience at The Bell House in Brooklyn! This week, Pauls special guest is singer-songwriter Rhett Miller of the Old 97s! They chat about how the movie 'The Sandlot' affected Rhett's life, unexpected reactions to Taylor Swift songs, and Rhett's young son taking a stand against the music industry. Paul is then joined by Chelsea Clarke, Shannon O'Neill, and Gary Richardson, to improvise a story set Backstage At A Rock Club. And as always, Eban (only the best) Schletter scores it all on piano!
