Join me for my conversation with Laurie Kaye. She takes me through her life, career, interviews with Mick Jagger, David Bowie, George Harrison and Paul McCartney, cultiminating with her interview with John Lennon and Yoko Ono at the Dakota in NYC on the day of John Lennon's death. Great conversation on a deep and sad topic.

Join me as I chat with award winning filmmaker, Don Hardy. We talk about his new music doc, "Linda Perry - Let it Die Here." It's a fantastic and courageous documentary. We discuss legacy in a disposable culture, living in the moment, taking chances and work results vs self worth. It's a great episode. Hope you dig it as much as I did.

Up and coming band alert!

Check out my conversation with Alex Fuller from the rock band, Pullstring. We chat about their formation, influences and their brand new record, "Out with the Old." Oh yeah, lots of the Replacements talk in this one. Check out their band. They are fairly new and they rock like you remember rock to be.

Join me as I chat with Steve Bowman (Counting Crows / Third Eye Blind / the Bittersweets / Luce). We talk about opening for Bob Dylan the Rolling Stones, playing on David Letterman and SNL, working with animals, teaching and more. Nice guy. Tune in!

Join me as I chat with Jim Brunzell (Director of the Sound Unseen Film Festival). Movie Maker calls Sound Unseen  "One of the 25 Coolest Film Festivals in the World." The festival is a unique, cutting edge "films on music" festival that started in Minneapolis 25 years ago. We discuss his upbringing, upcoming festival guests, John Doe, Linda Perry and more and I also learn that his dad was a WWF/WWE Wrestling star. Great talk!

Join me for the 4 year anniversary episode as I talk with Lisa Umbarger (the Toadies). We talk about her time in the Toadies, touring in places like North Dakota, her parents hanging out with Marilyn Manson and Trent Reznor, the ghost of tour buses past, podcasting and the reasons why the Toadies made the kids sad...

Join me as I talk to record producer/engineer, Steve Fisk. As a musician, he has been in bands such as the instrumental alternative/indie rock band Pell Mell and the electronic band Pigeonhed. He has long been associated with the Pacific Northwest music scenes recording such artists as Nirvana, Soundgarden, Screaming Trees, Unwound, Ben Gibbard, the Wedding Present, Beat Happening and much more! Fun talk.

Matt Keating is a fantastic songwriter from New York City. We talk about his solo career, Steve Earle, living near the World Trade Center, opening for the Cranberries and ummmm…DAVID BOWIE! You can catch him on Thursday at the Driftwood in MPLS with his band “The Bastards of Fine Arts”. Great guy and fun conversation.

Blake Smith returns to the show and brings along his co-conspirator, Rick Ness. Join us as we talk about coffins, weird shows, unimpressed bartenders, Minneapolis, Oasis and the great yacht rock fall out. 

Fig Dish will reunite for two sold out shows next week in Chicago. They are also putting out their previously unreleased third record, "Feels Like the First Two Times."

Always a pleasure to dish with the dish.
