On the final Host and Guest of 2023, Rick is joined by writer and musician Jake Slichter to talk about the new Semisonic album, what it was like touring for the first time in 20+ years, Jake's book "So You Wanna Be a Rock & Roll Star" and for a quick trip down memory lane to revisit how Jake & Rick first met in 2001.

Semisonic's new album Little Bit of Sun is available now for purchase on vinyl, cd and digitally. It can also be streamed on your favorite service.
