Summary

Episode 278 - Citizen frontman Mat Kerekes joins the show! Fresh in his new place in Virginia, while working on commissioning some art pieces, we have one of my favorite conversations on the podcast to date. We discuss: Citizen's perceived "coolness" and mystique, recording their new album by themselves without longtime producer Will Yip, Mat's on stage attire choices and his managers opinion of it, the best 3 workout exercises, and how Covid may have actually been a really good thing for Citizen.
