Hi, I'm Evan from Silver Spring, Maryland.

I'm Nicole from Toronto.

I'm Jake from Chattanooga.

Both I with Jessie Thorn is produced independently and supported by listeners like you and me.

You should support the show like I did.

It's easy.

Just so that maximum fun.org flash donate.

I'm Susan Arlene and for Jessie Thorn this week, my guest is Jack Black.

Would you say that your first love is music rather than acting?

Or is it just a the whole thing combined?

Well, when I think back to the beginning, there was always a little bit of both.

I like to sing along with the different albums in the living room and stare in the mirror.

I had this thing I like to do where I would put on this.

I can't find it either.

I've been trying to find this Dr. Sioux's album of songs inspired by Dr. Sioux, I guess.

And there were lots of harmonies and different instruments.

And I would sing the song in the mirror while it was playing on the record player.

And imagine that I was doing all of the instruments by myself.

That there was, you know, like a trumpet coming out of my nostril.

The singing vocal out of my mouth and out of my ears would come, you know,

the drums and the different things.

And that there would be an audience watching me just in awe.
