Zev joins the pod from Toronto. He plays bass in Glutenhead, who just released a self-titled EP on July 3! He teaches me about short-scale basses and flat-wound strings––I've been playing guitar for 22 years and had zero knowledge prior to this conversation! We cover a lot of ground in this episode including stories about meeting a few of the guys and getting to play "fuck, marry, kill" with Stu when Zev was a music journalist.

Marissa joins the podcast from Portland, OR. She's a longtime fan of psych rock, but relatively new to King Gizzard fandom. We discuss the significance of band merch and other factors that make KGATLW so compelling for their fans to invest in. We also talk about our own transcendent travel experiences and the importance of being free and finding ourselves. Lastly, for anyone who likes Stonefield: Marissa recommends that you check out a local Portland psych band, Blackwater Holylight.

Nick joins the pod from Kansas City, where he's quarantining with his folks. We talk mushroom trips and our favorite King Gizzard albums to pair with them, as well as our current favorite albums to listen to regardless of conscious state.

Ben from Boston is my guest this episode! This was recorded the day after Joe Rogan's Spotify deal was announced, so we discuss what that could mean for the future of online streaming. Ben tells a pretty amazing story about seeing King Gizzard at Desert Daze, which led to a fun and long tangent on psychedelics. (We resume talking Gizz at 41:30.)

Jarod and Matt join the pod from Maryland for one of the wildest and most interesting journeys you'll have the pleasure of hearing listening to this podcast.

Cory has been a fan of KGATLW for almost a third of his life. He joins the pod from south Texas and tells a story about the time he got to see King Gizzard in an extremely intimate venue in Austin.

It's the pod's first three-way! Josh and Paul join me from Illinois to talk about how music brought them together as friends. Ticketmaster can eat shit. We also talk about movie theaters, Chunky Shrapnel, and the music industry.
