New Jack White album, new Third Men Podcast. The boys are back to listen through the incredible NO NAME LP that Jack White dropped in July of 2024, and give live commentary on each electrifying track. From the wicked solos, chunky riffs and exceptional songwriting, NO NAME is a superb and unexpected entry into the Jack White solo cannon and we could not be happier! Whether you’re listening during the morning (at midnight) or bombing out in a missionary, we want to hear YOUR favorite cuts – and hope you enjoy this off-the-cuff reaction to NO NAME!

Surprise! The Third Men Podcast is back from the mind shaft, connected by brotherly love (ew) and ready with an all-new episode that will take you for a stroll down memory lane. Specifically, whatever memory lane Ezmerelda is on. This is an installment of the show that we’re calling BOARDING HOUSE REVISITED, wherein your humble co-hosts will take a look back at Jack White’s divisive, genre-bending, and quintessentially WEIRD third solo album Boarding House Reach. In 2018, we here at the Third Men Podcast were so excited to have a new record from Jack White, that in retrospect our reactions to that record were perhaps somewhat colored by the environment around us. Well, we’re here to give this whacky record a fresh listen, featuring live commentary for your ears only …and with a surprising amount of clarity given the time that has passed since its release. So join us, won’t you? We’re happy to be back — even if we are, indeed, totally absurd.

What are YOUR favorite Dead Weather tracks? This is the question at the heart of the second installment of our ongoing TOP SPECIAL series – wherein we award our top three tracks from a set of albums with medals of varying (christian?) names. Today we welcome back returning guest Luke Sinclare to select choice cuts from each album by The Dead Weather, Jack White’s goth-powered supergroup featuring Alison Mosshart, Jack Lawrence, Dean Fertita and the most important part of the band: the bass. 2009’s Horehound, 2010’s Sea of Cowards, and 2015’s Dodge & Burn have unique flavors all, and we’ve chosen our season 7 finale episode to sample this range of tunes and uncover our personal favorites in the process. Thanks to everyone out there for joining us this season on the show, and thanks to Luke for helping us finish out the run with one of the most lively conversations we’ve had on the Third Men Podcast to date!

You’ve heard his name amongst the earliest die hard White Stripes fans…you’ve seen him mentioned in Mojo Magazine, Rolling Stone and even the White Stripes & Third Man Records official social channels. He’s Frank Anselmo, and this week he’s joining us on the Third Men podcast to talk Jack White Collections…and he’s got one of the finest in the world! Going all the way back to the White Stripes initial rise to fame in the US, Frank was there to witness it all as a die hard fan with enough close encounters to fill a Steven Spielberg movie. From gifting Jack White an authentic 1964 Airline Res-O-Glas (in iconic RED of course) to being on-set during the Hardest Button to Button video shoot, Frank has been on-hand for some incredible moments in Third Man history. This week we talk to Frank about his journey, and about the JackWhiteCollections.com – his labor of love website that showcases the incredible complete collections of Third Man memorabilia that will leave you breathless. So thanks Frank for joining us on the show, and for keeping James company at this year’s Jack White concert in NYC!
