Summary

Wow wow wow. This week, the band delights in having the best heart-to-heart convo with poet, essayist, and cultural critic Hanif Abdurraqib (They Can't Kill Us Until They Kill Us, Go Ahead In The Rain: Notes to A Tribe Called Quest, Object of Sound). Together, they commiserate over the struggle of convincing everyone that you really are a silly little goose, the practice of making playlists, and seeking reasons that life is good (and so fun). Also discussed is the nuanced relationship between grief and love, lyrical analysis, beauty standards in the patriarchy, and growing up in a Midwestern punk scene. A one-of-one convo with a one-of-one person. Okay, that's enough exposition. Press play!
