    No other host can get deep and nerdy with musical guests. I know nothing about making music, so these conversations really demystify why I like music.

    Tiny Music makes so much more sense now. My absolute favorite album but now I know where so may of those chords and progressions came from. Awesome

    I graduated high school in 96. I was a fringe kid. STP was def not a grunge band but i loved them. This is a top ten desert island song for me
