Welcome to the Rolling Stone interview podcast. I'm Geoffi Haza, senior music editor at Rolling Stone.

Recently, I sat down to talk with Joe Button, the host and creator of the Joe Button podcast.

We talked about his show's very successful 2025, him going independent, and what he learned from his time in the music industry.

You can watch the full conversation on Rolling Stone's YouTube channel and on Spotify video or listen wherever you get your podcast.

Please enjoy.
