Glamorous Trash: A Celebrity Memoir Podcast Neko Case’s Memoir The Harder I Fight, The More I Love You (with Jana Schmieding)
Chelsea and actor/writer Jana Schmieding ("Rutherford Falls") dive into Neko Case’s brand-new memoir, "The Harder I Fight, The More I Love You." From Case’s neglectful and rugged upbringing in the Pacific Northwest to her rise in the indie rock scene, they unpack her poetic writing, years of relentless touring, and the resilience that fueled her art. Plus, the comedian whose work helped shape Neko’s path, an unexpected Stevie Nicks tangent, and why spite might just be the ultimate creative fuel.
