On this episode of the Spout Podcast, Tamara Dhia sits down with alt-pop artist Role Model (aka Tucker Pillsbury) for a refreshingly honest and hilarious conversation. Fresh off his headlining tour—and still riding high from his breakout hit “Sally (When the Wine Runs Out)”—Role Model opens up about everything from bringing his mom on stage to his viral TikTok moment with Renee Rapp (aka “Mommy”).

He shares the accidental magic behind his biggest song, the truth about internet rumors (yes, there’s a fake Role Model out there), and why the name “Sally” just sang better—even if she’s fictional. The two also dig into his acting debut alongside Natalie Portman and Mark Ruffalo, how he DMs with Ed Sheeran (email-only, naturally), and what it’s like being invited to an exclusive “lesbian party.”

You’ll laugh, you’ll swoon, and you might even rethink your stage name.

What do you get when you mix $100 bills, cheap champagne, and a cheer stunt or two? A Jessie Murph tour, baby. She's back on Spout and bigger than ever — literally and metaphorically. Jessie spills about her accidental banger “Blue Strips,” getting rowdy on stage (please stop stealing her acrylics), and what to expect from her upcoming album that somehow fuses Elvis, trap, and gas station Gatorade. Oh, and Wilbur the Pig? Still thriving.

Then we catch up with Sombr, who’s quietly taking over the globe. From Prague to Fallon, this live-lounge crooner proves that soulful songwriting and shoeys can coexist. He talks BBC Radio nerves, Aussie tour dreams, and why your eyes will always snitch on your soul.

Tune in for music, chaos, and two artists proving that the best art often starts as a freestyle… or a feeling you can’t shake.

Beauty School Dropout Kneeled It (™)

From crashing at friends’ houses to crashing the charts—Beauty School Dropout didn’t just make an album, they made a statement. In this episode, the genre-blurring rock trio joins host Nick Major to talk about their upcoming full-length Where Did All the Butterflies Go?, how producer Neil Avron turned their demos into dopamine, and why recording the "old school" way actually made them better musicians (and borderline crybabies).

They spill on the real meaning behind their band name (spoiler: one of them actually is a beauty school dropout), how they went from opening for Royal & the Serpent to catching the ears of Pete Wentz and Mark Hoppus, and the secret category all their songs fall into: Sexy, Driving, or Heavy. (Yes, you can be all three.)

Come for the music talk, stay for the dad trauma, RV tour hacks, and the story of how one dinner conversation and a hair compliment changed their careers. It’s the coming-of-age rock story you didn’t know you needed.

Alex Warren’s viral hit “Ordinary” may have topped charts around the world, but his story is anything but. In this episode, host Tamara Dhia catches up with Alex on his Cheaper Than Therapy tour to talk about the whirlwind journey from homelessness to headliner — and the real-life love story that inspired his breakout single.

Alex opens up about working with artists like Joe Jonas and Jelly Roll, getting life advice from Ed Sheeran, and being introduced to Lana Del Rey in the most surreal way imaginable. He also reflects on his early days founding the Hype House, his friendship with Addison Rae, and why artists like him, Benson Boone, and others are redefining what it means to “break” in today’s music industry.

From pop-up shows during vocal rest to a dream collaboration with Billie Eilish (that he swears will never happen), this is a candid look at the highs, lows, and humanity behind one of social media’s biggest crossover stars.
