‘Too Much Effing Perspective’ podcast asks guests to recount their ‘Spinal Tap’ moments


Listen Later

The iconic 1980s mockumentary “This Is Spinal Tap” follows a fictional British band as their first North American tour slowly – and hilariously – falls apart. The movie serves as inspiration for the “Too Much Effing Perspective” podcast, hosted by Portlander Alex Hofmann and LA-based Allen Keller. Hofmann and Keller kick off conversations by asking guests about their “Spinal Tap” moments — situations where everything that could go wrong, did. The podcast has featured several Northwest artists since it launched in 2021, including Sleater-Kinney, the Dandy Warhols and Nancy Wilson from Heart.

Hofmann and show producer Gretchen Kilby join us in the studio to talk about the best stories guests have shared, as well as their own “Spinal Tap” moments.
