Randy and Aaron discuss last week's interview with Martin Atkins.

Everybody But Me Wang Chunged That Night Chapters: 62 KURU 63 TWO QUICK THINGS Aaron dishes about getting kicked out of the band he thought was going to make him a rock star. Altogether now: “It was the 90s.” Afraid of being an “unreliable narrator” - Aaron asks Katie not to let him off the hook. As the stories get closer to modern day, it’s getting less cute to hear about Adam and his bad choices. As Katie says, “If you’re looking for someone to dress you down, I think you should pull our other siblings in here.” Aaron talks about the metaphor that saves his relationship. Some other notable quotes: “Sometimes the best thing to do is to do nothing” “The man who edits controls the knowledge” Correction: It’s the PRESIDENTS of the United States of America. But you knew that. **Update! We chose not to air another episode. This is going to be a pretty short season! These stories can sometimes cut a little close to the bone, and we felt like what would have been episode 5 might be pushing too far into other peoples’ lives. It was a good one but we decided to err on the side of privacy. Email us a lajollababylon@gmail.com if you want to know more (we’ll tell you everything privately).

Thalia Zedek is a guitarist and singer based in Boston. Throughout the 1980’s and 90’s, she has joined and or been a founding member of several influential rock  bands including Live Skull, UZI, and Come. She continues to record and tour with her solo project Thalia Zedek Band and E.  Recently her mid 80’s band Via, a short-lived project with members of Nuclear Theater, Six Finger Satellite, UZI and Cell, have released their long lost self-titled EP, available now via Dromedary Records.  Thalia and Joe discuss the origin of Via, why the project didn’t continue beyond two shows and one recording session, and Thalia paints us a picture of a hustling mid 80’s NY punk scene.  Thalia shares share’s her experience growing up in a DC music scene and how Patti Smith and other woman forward DIY bands inspired her to play music. We get a peek into the one and only Via recording session, hear a few tunes from the new release and Thalia tells the story of how she wound up singing for Live Skull.

Randy and Aaron discuss last week's interview with Ted Hearne. https://dholder.bandcamp.com/

Alex Tōth is a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist based in Bedford-Stuyvesant, NYC. His newest album, And The Voice Said (out February 27th via Northern Spy/Egg Hunt Records) is a co-production with long-time friend Caroline Rose and features a duet with Kimbra.  Alex tells us about his rowdy teen years led to a teen jazz program and why the trumpet gave him an identity amongst the Jersey hardcore scene.  He explains the voice(s) that inspired the record title, how Caroline Rose helped him grow as a vocalist and the two discuss the role of negativity in Alex’s songwriting.   Alex tells us how video for Not Broken was shot on a busy Coney Island boardwalk, why it’s so moving for him and how he wrangled live animal cameos.
