Amber Bain (The Japanese House) stops by the studio to chat tour life, friendship, and of course, rave culture.

Rave Culture with Amber Bain (The Japanese House)

Having been described by the press as “occasionally hard-to-follow,” “as chaotic as they are iconic,” and “going through it,” the band MUNA started this podcast with the hope of providing not only more income, but also rare insight into the behavior of queers outside of the month of June.
Join the band and their special guests as they gab about our personal lives, music, what they like to eat, the TV they watch, intergenerational trauma, and of course their search for answers in the case of a missing girl. Tune in for new episodes every Wednesday.

This week, the band is joined by singer, musician, pioneer of the feminist punk riot grrrl movement, punk zine writer, and most recently memoir author Kathleen Hanna! Together, the group confide their tricks to get through the early days of touring, the differences between coming up as a band between the 90s and now, and the thrill of a beautiful miniature display.

Kathleen's book, Rebel Girl: My Life as a Feminist Punk, is out now! Buy it here.

Divine Synchronicity

This week, the band continues their exciting conversation with acclaimed activist and astrologer Chani Nicholas! In this special part two, Chani not only breaks down Josette, Katie, and Naomi's birth charts (both individually and collectively as a band), but also blows everyone's minds with the nuance and accuracy she brings to the proverbial table. Spoiler alert: MUNA was written in the stars a long, long, long time ago.
