Brian Weitz is here to discuss the solo debut by Geologist, Can I Get a Pack of Camel Lights?, his previous academic and vocational pursuits in environmental and ocean policy on Capitol Hill, how his interest in playing the hurdy gurdy led him to Ben Grossman, Guelph, Ontario, and my inbox a few years ago, why a Keiji Haino show at the New York City club Tonic made a huge impression on him as a university student, his friendship with the late David Berman and smoking the last cigarette David gave him after he died, his interest in drone, noise, and artists on the SST record label, how much he has always loved Pavement, a tangent about the life-saving film Spies Like Us, future plans for Animal Collective and himself, and much more.

Jason P. Woodbury returns to discuss the new, self-titled album by Jason P. Woodbury & The Night Bird Singing Quartet, why he shifted from releasing records as JPW to his current band name and who’s part of the NBSQ, working to overcome self-consciousness about making music under his own name as an active music journalist, his fascination with birdsongs and rogue roosters, using your imagination on long drives as a kid, a deep interest in extraterrestrial life and spiritual searching, comic books and escapism, writing new songs, the status of his currently paused podcast Transmissions, other future plans, and much more.
