We chat about taking big swings, TJ saw Top Gun: Maverick, getting high in parking structures, The Elden Ring is the Infinite Jest of gaming, the Ps5 is tough to find, TJ booked Spoon to play 15 years ago, Rick Rubin’s polar bear, if Matador is making them do Tik Toks, old music is getting more streams than new, Spoon has no syncs that they regret, how to stay awake while driving from Austin to LA in one straight shot, people who think they’re reinventing music, Howard Stern’s favorite Prince record is the Batman soundtrack, we confront them about canceling on us twice, and we charge up their Sweetgreen cashew.
