1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask you a question. I know the answer already. 2 00:00:01,639 --> 00:00:07,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask it anyway. If here's my husband, Oh hello, Okay, 3 00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:13,360 Speaker 1: hey Alex, I'm interviewing Kesha right now. Okay, I don't 4 00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:16,920 Speaker 1: know how you put on your sunglasses when my husband 5 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 1: it was just a phone call. Thank god, you're listening 6 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,239 Speaker 1: thinking out loud. This is the very first one, by 7 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:25,279 Speaker 1: the way, but I already know what the interview with 8 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:27,880 Speaker 1: Kesha is all about. You're gonna love this. When we 9 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,840 Speaker 1: recorded this interview with Kesha, we did it right after 10 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 1: our morning show on the radio where we had her 11 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,200 Speaker 1: as a guest. And of course, as I've been doing 12 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 1: interviews on the radio for thirty years, you know, I 13 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 1: know there's a timing aspect there that has to be 14 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 1: in out done, play the song, play commercials, goodbye, and 15 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:48,159 Speaker 1: we also have other people in the room that want 16 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:50,600 Speaker 1: to ask questions as well, and it does very well. 17 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,639 Speaker 1: It's been very, very very successful. But with this podcast, 18 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 1: it was explaining to me, Elvis, now you can take 19 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 1: your time. Now you can actually go down roads that 20 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: you didn't have a chance to go down on the 21 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: regular show. And this is where I've finally learned that 22 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: is so true my moments with keshah Yo. Kesha and 23 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: I actually connected several interviews ago on the show, and 24 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: I got to know her mom as well. And I 25 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: love the side of Kesha, which is, in my opinion, 26 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 1: all of Kesha. It's her only side uniqueness. She is 27 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: such a unique individual. She's not afraid to tell you 28 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 1: what's in her heart and on her mind, even though 29 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,399 Speaker 1: it may freak you the hell out. She loves the 30 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 1: fact that there's an interplanetary connection going on with us 31 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,319 Speaker 1: and other beings from out there in the universe. She 32 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 1: also loves talking about the weird things that she gets 33 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 1: into in the course of a normal Kesha day. You'll 34 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 1: hear that here where she gets to play with the 35 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 1: skull of a mass murderer. I think we'll see it together. 36 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: It's been a few weeks since we've recorded, and I'm 37 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: going to listen to it with you. Kesha A great 38 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 1: way to start thinking out loud as my podcast series. 39 00:01:54,840 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: Here we go, listen to this.

So I'm here to talk about 72 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:23,799 Speaker 3: it because I haven't really talked about it while I've 73 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,079 Speaker 3: been incubating this album. I've been pretty insular. 74 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: Well, who are you to say that you have a 75 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 1: weird life? I mean, it's your life. What's so weird 76 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:33,359 Speaker 1: about it to you? 77 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure it's kind of weird. Like, for example, 78 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 3: I yesterday was at the Philosophical Research Society and you 79 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 3: walk into this library that looks like Hogwarts, and all 80 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 3: these beautiful books are behind glass, and there's a section 81 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 3: for taro, there's a section for past lives, there's a 82 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 3: section for comparative religions. 83 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 2: You go and you can. 84 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 3: Read all this ancient text about anything esoteric. Philosophical Research 85 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 3: Library is that. So then I meet the guy who 86 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 3: kind of runs the place, and he was like, oh, 87 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 3: I have this closet upstairs that there might be the 88 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 3: head of a German murderer. 89 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 1: And I was like, hold on, wait, ahead of a 90 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: German murderer, yes, okay. 91 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 3: Like non specific, no one knows who he is or 92 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 3: how they got the head, like it's all big question marks. 93 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 3: But as soon as they said there might be a head, around. 94 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 3: I was like, okay, I'm not leave ahead, you know 95 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 3: exactly exactly. So I was like, yo, I'm not leaving 96 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 3: until we find this head. So we go upstairs. I 97 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 3: have a video of it, and there's a bookcase that 98 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 3: like is a secret doorway to this closet and he 99 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 3: opens it up and I think it's going to be 100 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 3: like Narnia, and it's a bunch of printer paper and 101 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 3: he's like, yeah, the head might be in one of 102 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 3: these boxes. I was like, okay, well we're gonna we're 103 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,479 Speaker 3: gonna rummage through your boxes, homie. So we couldn't find 104 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 3: the head there, so we traveled to the other side 105 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 3: of the library and we finally find this head under 106 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 3: a desk in a cardboard box full of like trash. 107 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,239 Speaker 3: There's just a bunch of trash on top of a head. 108 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,599 Speaker 3: So we did in fact find the head. So we 109 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 3: whips out the head and I just start giggling maniacally because, 110 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 3: for whatever reason, a dead head is like my favorite 111 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 3: thing apparently, So. 112 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: This is why you feel you're different than the other kids, Yes, 113 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: because this excites you finding a head in a closet, 114 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: but a German murderer's head. So that what if it 115 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: was like a grandmother's head. It was a skull. 116 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 2: By the way, it was a skull. It was a skull, 117 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 2: not a head with hair. Well, to be clear, there's. 118 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: A clear line between skull and head. I guess I 119 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: do know, But so I see your point. Not everyone 120 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: in this world would love to go through a bookcase 121 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: hidden door into a room full of boxes and dig 122 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 1: through them until they found a skull of a German murderer. 123 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 2: So why not? Why wouldn't they would? I feel like 124 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 2: you would. 125 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,559 Speaker 1: So someone's listening to this podcast now going they're about 126 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: to reach to turn it off. They're like, ah, wait, 127 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: hold on, let's hear this head story. 128 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,280 Speaker 3: Well, we found it. I held it. I gave him 129 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 3: a little kiss. I think he's good. He didn't have 130 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 3: bad vibes. And that was like an average Friday. 131 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: Who did he murder? 132 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,159 Speaker 2: I mean, how do we know what he d knows? 133 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 3: Which is like probably problematic. But so when I was 134 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 3: filming the show, so I started with a podcast and 135 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 3: then it turned kind of it morphed into a television 136 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 3: show that's on Discovery Plus called Conjuring Kasha, and I 137 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,160 Speaker 3: would just shoot the shit with people that I found 138 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 3: interesting and had any sort of paranormal experience or opinions. 139 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 3: So that turned into me traveling around the country and 140 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 3: looking for spirits, looking for ghosts. I went to a 141 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:03,279 Speaker 3: secret society be where they also had skeletons in the walls. 142 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 3: They would bury the skeletons in the walls of the Oddfellows. 143 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 3: I was the first woman allowed to film inside of 144 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 3: an Oddfellow's center. 145 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 2: And then I just. 146 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 3: Did like ghost experiments the whole time, and I was 147 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 3: I found like three different skeletons and you and they 148 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 3: bought them from a catalog. So they had this catalog 149 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 3: that's like, what kind of skeleton do you want? 150 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: There's a thing that's a thing? 151 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 2: Yeah? 152 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: Can I Amazon right now?

Kesha. When did all this begin 161 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 1: in your life? Your fascination with things I don't want 162 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: to use the word macab because that's so limiting. But 163 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: all things different than what the other kids would to 164 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 1: talk about it forever your mom. 165 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 3: My mom was is convinced she's truly serious that she 166 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 3: is an alien, which I wouldn't be surprised she was. 167 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 3: And I just grew up and we would write songs 168 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 3: and listen to like ram Das or we would It 169 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 3: was always spiritual seeking. Like she took astrology in college. 170 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 3: So it's just kind of in my blood to be 171 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 3: obsessed with this stuff. I'm also triple Pisces, which I 172 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 3: don't know. If you're into astrology, I don't like, what's 173 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 3: your sign. 174 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: I'm a Leo, but I don't know if I'm a 175 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: triple Leo or if I've ever if uranus is rising 176 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 1: or whatever rising. I don't. I don't understand it, but 177 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 1: I appreciate learning about it. Yeah, and so I don't know. 178 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 1: If I had my chart here, I could show it 179 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 1: to and you could say, oh, you would walk out 180 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 1: the door, or. 181 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 2: You'd be like, oh, no, no, go you no. 182 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 3: It's really interesting because your main sign is not all 183 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 3: that governs who you are. You have multiple houses and 184 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 3: risings and your sun, your moon, all these different things, so. 185 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 1: I understand that part. 186 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I just find that really interesting. 187 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 3: I'm trying to like have someone go through it with 188 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 3: me and show me how to really read a chart 189 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,839 Speaker 3: because it's pretty confusing when you look at it. And 190 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 3: I just signed up for a tarot card class. 191 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: I'm want to get to that in a moment. Yeah, 192 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: can you order some tarot cards on Amazon? I have 193 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: some at home. 194 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 3: I had some in my purse, but I didn't bring 195 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 3: the right purse. But yeah, I just have always been 196 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 3: like that. And then that's perhaps why my schooling experience 197 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 3: was hell, because I also loved making my own like 198 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:56,559 Speaker 3: velvet bell bottoms, and apparently that wasn't cool then, and 199 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 3: so I had like a pretty weird childhood experien answer. 200 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 3: I didn't really feel like I could connect to that 201 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 3: many people because they wanted to play with the dolls. 202 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 1: Were you lonely as a kid because of this, Yeah, 203 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: a little bit. 204 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 3: That's why I turned the songwriting right because I would 205 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 3: have and I've always been a highly sensitive person, which 206 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 3: is a thing a lot of people out there that 207 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 3: would label themselves as like, oh, I'm just like quote 208 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 3: unquote crazy. Really, you just might be really highly sensitive, 209 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 3: really intuitive. So I started writing songs because I felt 210 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 3: like I couldn't connect to a ton of people. And 211 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 3: then I moved to LA and found a couple other 212 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 3: weirdos and my bandman lived to strange people and we 213 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 3: have our little tribe. 214 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 1: So you're proud of me. 215 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 3: Strange, I mean, I don't know how else to be. 216 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 1: Well, no, I mean you shouldn't. You shouldn't have been 217 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 1: thinking about what you are whatever. You don't put yourself 218 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,439 Speaker 1: in any box. You are just who you are. So 219 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: this resonates with me a lot. And you look at me. 220 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: I'm a fifty eight year old gay guy on the 221 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: radio with nothing in common with you, you would think, 222 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 1: But the things you're saying about you and your childhood 223 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 1: remind me of me and my childhood. 224 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,359 Speaker 2: And what was your like schooling experience? 225 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 1: Well, you know, I was the outcast and I didn't 226 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 1: have a lot of friends. And you know, mom and 227 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: dad they both worked. I would be at home by 228 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: myself every day and just watch TV and pretend to 229 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 1: be on the radio, and you know, and I would 230 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: sit in my little closet with my equipment and I 231 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 1: would have a radio show. 232 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 2: And that is so sweet. 233 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 1: It is, But then I started thinking, how sad was I? 234 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I wasn't playing sports, couldn't. I wasn't out there, 235 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 1: you know, being a butcher burly guy, because well I 236 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 1: wanted to have sex with them, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, 237 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 1: I mean it was different than everyone, But I think 238 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: it's the people who are Anyone who's listening to this 239 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 1: right now is going, holy shit, that's me. 240 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 2: I'm really people. 241 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 3: Everyone is weird, Like I think, I told you this earlier, 242 00:11:58,640 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 3: but I have a new theory. 243 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 2: This is my own. 244 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 3: This is the Kesha theory of relativity. We're all just babies. Okay, 245 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 3: that's as far as I've gotten. 246 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 2: But we're all just giant babies. 247 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 3: So the formative years of like going to school and stuff, 248 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,719 Speaker 3: it impacts the rest of your life, right because all 249 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 3: we are is a collection of our experiences plus our spirit. 250 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 3: If you believe in. 251 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: That, I do me doo. 252 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:31,959 Speaker 2: What was I talking about? 253 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 1: We're just giant babies. 254 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,440 Speaker 3: So I think that feeling like an outcast, which I 255 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:42,080 Speaker 3: completely relate to, it made my drive so much more 256 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 3: intense because I felt like I had something to prove 257 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,559 Speaker 3: to all the people that made fun of me and 258 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 3: to myself too that I was you know, I'm not 259 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 3: just special and strange for no good reason.

And that's one of my 263 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 3: favorite things about making music is my shows, because I 264 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 3: just always wanted to have a safe place to go 265 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 3: be weird. 266 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 1: Well that's what this album is sort of about. 267 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, totally. 268 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: This album is that you definitely turned a corner with 269 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 1: this album. This one is much more personal. You're saying, yeah, 270 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: you gave birth to this whole new side of you 271 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: because there are other people out there that you're convinced 272 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: can relate with it because they are the same way. 273 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 3: I mean, in a way, I hope a lot of 274 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 3: people don't relate to the sadder songs because I want 275 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 3: people to be happy. But I have a feeling that 276 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 3: most humans go through the kaleidoscope of human emotion, Like 277 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 3: I cannot be the only one that feels insecure sometimes 278 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,319 Speaker 3: it cannot be the one that feels full of rage. 279 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 3: I cannot be the only one that feels kind of 280 00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 3: at the end of their rope sometimes, especially just the 281 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 3: consumption of media boggles my brain. It feels really overwhelming sometimes, 282 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 3: and I know we all consume a lot of media, 283 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 3: so sometimes it makes me feel like my brain's going 284 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 3: to explode. And I'm writing and singing about that. 285 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 1: I find that very relatable to almost everyone who's listening 286 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 1: to this, most likely, I absolutely My question is this, 287 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 1: even if you didn't have the influence of your mother 288 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: and her philosophy in life, don't you think this would 289 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: have been the path you would have found anyway? But 290 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 1: if you had a mom who was an accountant and 291 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 1: a dad who was a car dealer. Is this goes 292 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 1: back to what is inside of you? Something's already baked 293 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 1: into you when you're born. 294 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, yeah, I think that there is a soul. 295 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 3: But I also think being surrounded by someone who is 296 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 3: a songwriter so I could observe the craft, So that 297 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 3: was always like, that's like how I grew up. I 298 00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 3: would go with my mom, she'd play shows and just 299 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 3: put me in the guitar case as a baby. So 300 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 3: I think how you're raised you view as normal until 301 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 3: you go out into the world and realize maybe some 302 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 3: of the things are not normal. 303 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 2: Like I thought it was normal. This is pretty embarrassing. 304 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 3: I thought it was normal to bathe your body. 305 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 2: In bleach occasionally, okay. 306 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 3: Until I got my first boyfriend and he was like, 307 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 3: the fuck are you doing? And I was like, it's 308 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 3: my normal weekly bleach bath and he was like, what 309 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 3: the fuck are you doing? So I didn't realize it 310 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 3: was strange until someone told me it was strange. 311 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: What made you think it was normal? By the way, 312 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 1: for the record, I'm not saying get abormal. Your mother 313 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 1: said you need to bathe in bleach at least once 314 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 1: a week. 315 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 3: Well, if you go run through the fields of Tennessee, 316 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 3: there's a lot of poison Ivyes, so this is according 317 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 3: to my mother, not a doctor. Not a doctor, not advice. Okay, 318 00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 3: But then she'd be like, oh, if you think you 319 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 3: ran through the poison'd you just like bleach your body? 320 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 1: So you just did it weekly? 321 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 3: Well I was a kid, I was like, well, my 322 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 3: mom knows what she's talking about. Turns out not so sure. 323 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 3: Parents all like no, everything they're talking about, which is 324 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 3: an interesting thing you learn when you grow up. 325 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 2: Is it your parents are just people? 326 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: Which goes back to what you said earlier. We're all 327 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 1: a bunch of babies. 328 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 2: We're all a bunch of babies. 329 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 1: The reason why that resonates with me as well is 330 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 1: when my father was ninety two years old and he 331 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 1: was about to leave us in this in this form, 332 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 1: he looked at me and said, here's what I want 333 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: to tell you, and I said, what's that? Dad? He said, 334 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 1: you never grow up? He said, you look at me 335 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: as your father. You used to think I had all 336 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: the answers. You used to think that I was there 337 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 1: to protect you because I could protect you against anything. 338 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: I couldn't. I never could. He said. You will learn 339 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 1: is to the day you leave this planet, this body 340 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 1: does anyway.

Talk talk to 515 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: me about traveling for you. Why everyone should have a passport? 516 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 3: I think that it just opens up your perception. It 517 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 3: opens up the perspective of different culture, different people, different languages, 518 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 3: and I feel like a more whole person. When I 519 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 3: see how everything else works, like it inspires the music, 520 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 3: it inspires the visual, It inspires me to want to 521 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 3: learn other languages, and inspires me to want to connect 522 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 3: with other people. 523 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:42,640 Speaker 2: And I don't know, it. 524 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 3: Just makes me feel really grateful when I travel. So 525 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:50,160 Speaker 3: I've been trying to travel as much as my schedule allows. 526 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 3: But like with this end goal of like when I'm 527 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 3: old and gray and all things are sagging to my 528 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,760 Speaker 3: knees and no one wants me to romp around on 529 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 3: stage in a unitard any longer. I kind of am 530 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 3: trying to figure out how on earth does a woman 531 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 3: get paid to travel around and just get massages? 532 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 1: What's that think? The only one asking that question right now? 533 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 2: I don't know, but I'm putting it out into the world. 534 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,480 Speaker 3: So if anybody out there can think of a way 535 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 3: where I just get smushed at, like every I'm on 536 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 3: in the world, right, sign me the fuck up. 537 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,880 Speaker 1: I'm with you, Take me with you.

I'm like, I didn't really 571 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 3: promote the album at all. 572 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:07,360 Speaker 1: Oh there's an album out. 573 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,120 Speaker 3: I am putting out an album May I'll do all 574 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 3: the hard work. My album is called gag Order. It's 575 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 3: out May nineteenth. I worked with the incredible Rick Rubin, 576 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 3: and it is unlike anything I've ever done, and it's 577 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 3: unlike anything I've ever heard. 578 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 1: On a scale of one to ten, ten being the most. 579 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 1: How much did you have to put this album out? Oh? 580 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:37,359 Speaker 3: Beyond Yeah, Like my my brain would have exploded. Like 581 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 3: I'm not even kidding. All this stuff had to come out. 582 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 3: I think that's how making artworks. It's not necessarily a choice. 583 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 3: I think you're channeling some sort of source energy that's 584 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 3: encouraging you to spill your guts all over a page. 585 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 3: And the intention behind it all is obviously to help 586 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 3: connect people, because I think that's why we as a 587 00:28:56,920 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 3: society are so addicted to our phone and social media, 588 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 3: because it connects us. So I really just hope my 589 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 3: music can connect people emotionally so they know they're not 590 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 3: alone in their emotions. If you want to celebrate with me, 591 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 3: check out Animal. If you want to like get moody 592 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 3: and dark, existential and scream, check out gag Order. 593 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 1: There you have it, gag Order. And I know one 594 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 1: thing about this album is it has nothing in common 595 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 1: with your next album. No, because your universe is spinning 596 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 1: really fast.
