Close to reaching the 30 year mark since Dave A was let go from PJ.
Also, 26 of these 30 years have been all Matt Cameron.

I'm in genuine awe about how some people just refuse to let go (talking about some fans and DA).

Sure is nice watching him devour this smorgasbord of a breakfast he’s eating the whole time.

I’ve watched about half of it and he’s already to the point of trying to figure out what he’s going to do since he just got fired. So at least half of it is about his time in Pearl Jam.

I can't believe this place sometimes. There have been 10 musicians in PJ over the years. Here we have 1 of them discussing what most of us think of as a wonderful time and there's apathy.

I've probably spent more time reading and voting in this MM alone than it takes to watch this interview and to what end?

Would love to hear the Vitalogy that he heard initially. Probably better than what we got.

It was a really nice chilled and vulnerable chat. He spoke really well of his days with PJ and also addressed his naivety regarding the business.

I could watch an hour long interview with every member, past member, crew member or producer/engineer. Those stories and angles are fascinating to me.

The only part where I feel he wasn’t fair was when talking about handling fame and he didn’t build walls while others did seemed rather short sighted (even unkind to what Ed was going through).

I think the interviewer had some great opportunities for follow ups (tell us more about that Vitalogy, what was your relationship with each member, etc), but he didn't follow through on it.

I’ve only just started on that podcast. I’ll get around to those mentioned for sure.

That's it.

I can't understand why people hate on Dave.

I wonder if there were any tunes on it that didn’t make the release. We know Hard To Imagine was done/worked on during the sessions. Was that on there? Anything else?
