Ed and Jeff on Bill Simmons Thursday

[WtOB?]

and here's the quarter "incident":

[Habitman]

pretty sure they're talking about this one:

Oh OK...thanks

[Habitman]

LOL @ Ed calling out Neil Young for backing out of the HOF induction ceremony (Says he got nervous over the venue size). I remember it was initially reported as Neil getting sick.

[WtOB?]

there must have been more going on with neil. it was around the same time he cancelled his australian tour and then shortly after got divorced.

[WtOB?]

maybe he was too busy spraying on his new ladies?

[Juvenal]

maybe he was too busy spraying on his new ladies?

Mr Learner please stop.

Can’t wait to listen and it was actually a snap to grab the podcast on my iPhone

[evenslow]

so of course my dumbass couldn't help but start listening to this at midnight last night. got over an hour in before i finally decided to go to sleep. finished this morning and it gets better as it goes along and everyone loosens up. the stories in the last 15 minutes are probably the best.

it's just nice to be able to hear ed especially in this context. reminds you that we just never get anything long form out of him. even in PJ20. really nice little section about him and kurt that i hadn't heard before.

so 2 hours and they could have gone 3 more easily. 30 years is a long time.

p.s. mudhoney must have nude photos of these guys or something.

[Strat]

yea this is great.

Love hearing Jeff talk about how he just bailed during the 93-96 period. he would retreat back to montana and not really talk to the guys as his way of dealing with it. Wonder how much that impacted the entire story of him not being called for No Code at the beginning

[Strat]

"but i take credit, full responsibility, for my uh...that whole time and how i dealt with it"
This is the most honest theyve been about their history.

[Monkey_Driven]

I was only able to listen to about an hour of it, but I liked Ed's advice to his younger self. "Don't be so upset if you see your face or lyrics on the side of a bus".

[Strat]

"yesterday!i was listening to our rehearsal tapes"


Question: When do you think the band was at their peak power and sounded the absolute best?" (not verbatim)

[Strat]

"We're a scrappy band. We dont know all the notes, we dont know all the chords, but we do get our focus together and our intentions are pure"

[Buby]

Where the hell can I download this thing?
I don't use sirius or spotify.
