During my recent conversation with Niko Stratis about her new book, The Dad Rock That Made Me a Woman, she described her affection for Jason Lytle’s band Grandaddy, and I mentioned I’d interviewed Jason before. Well, this got me looking for that talk and here it is! This phoner between Jason and I took place on Tuesday December 4, 2012 at 11 AM ET and was focused on his solo album Dept. of Disappearance, and we covered other things too, including whether or not Grandaddy might ever make music or play shows again. As it happens, Grandaddy will be on tour soon!To hear this entire conversation, subscribe to Kreative Kontrol on Patreon at the $6 tier or higher (a reminder that an annual subscription includes a discount compared to a monthly one).Related episodes/links:Ep. #974: Niko StratisEp. #924: Lance Bangs and Bob Nastanovich on ‘Pavements’Ep. #803: The Replacements’ ‘Tim: Let it Bleed Edition’ with Bob Mehr, Jason Jones & Ed StasiumEp. #717: No AgeEp. #704: Sam Prekop and John McEntireEp. #694: David CrossSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/kreative-kontrol.

Nikki Glaser (2016) - Teaser
Comedian Nikki Glaser and I spoke on the phone at 3:30 PM ET on Wednesday, July 6, 2016, not long before she was set to appear at the Just for Laughs Festival in Montreal. At the time, the prospects of Donald Trump becoming president of the United States of America seemed slim, but we discussed that, the political climate and how it influenced her incisive TV show Not Safe with Nikki Glaser, why comedians are often called upon to discuss socio-political issues, some people’s bizarre worldviews, and other things too.
