Are you involved with this podcast?

Did he say it in a Boston accent?

I saw this the other day and mostly came away impressed with the originality and unpredictability of the story. Karla Sofia Gascon's lead performance was great. I've also seen Anora, Blitz, Conclave and The Piano Lesson this week. Anora was truly great-- unpredictable, hilarious and poignant. Conclave was also very good.

Yikes. Kind of puts me in mind of the "I'll Fight" guy who's always at Largo but much, much worse. Thanks for recapping and, in the process, making sure that I do not feel any regret for not making the trip up north for these shows.

Nice! Love me some 'chunk. I wore a Superchunk T-shirt to a Billy Ocean show the other night. (Now there's a sentence that has likely never been written before!) I guess I should have posted Saturday: Billy Ocean (Who sounds incredible at age 74.)

Lynne? Ament? Healey? DJ Jazzy? (I almost said "Beck?" but then remembered he died last year.)

Wait until you see the gold watch that Jeff will personally deliver to you on the 25-year anniversary of your first Wilco show.

I agree with this. He is genuinely funny and very self-aware.

After not listening to this for a few months, I've listened about five times over the past week and the album has held up well against my original very positive feelings about it. I still think "Sunlight Ends" is one of the five best songs they've ever done, and "A Bowl and a Pudding" is also way up there. And "Meant to Be" has taken on a special resonance for me since the album first came out.

Am I supposed to grade it on a curve? I think it's a mess.

This is so much better than the one they chose. I guess I'm in the minority here, but I think the one they chose is hideous. And it's going to look even more chaotic on the CD.

I don't see November 29 on that page. I see "later in 2024, exact date TBD" and a vague reference to items shipping "circa late November."

I just can't believe it never "dawned on me" that "She's a Jar" is about pickles. I've always understood it to mean "She's Slightly Open"...

When/where did they announce November 29 for the EP?
