Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

076 | Tour update: Flight chaos before Foo fun in Fargo!

076 | Tour update: Flight chaos before Foo fun in Fargo!
Q: What were the highlights of the Fargo show?
Lee notes that Window was played, a song from the new album, and an acoustic segment featuring Wheels and Marigold; overall, the energy and camaraderie of the crowd and friends made the show memorable, despite a largely cookie-cutter setlist.
068 | Director Mark Pellington on how grief inspired Foo Fighters’ ‘Best of You’ video
Q: What happened when you first got the gig and heard the track for Best of You?
The director explains that once he heard the track, he felt a strong pull toward a non-linear, image-driven approach that could convey intense emotion; he submitted a treatment built around inner feelings and grief, which Dave Grohl trusted even though the exact visuals were not fully defined at first.
052 | Jessy Greene returns to discuss new album 'The Future Holds To Love' featuring Rami Jaffee
Q: Who else played on the album and how did the collaboration with The Fund Music come about?
They mention Mario Colley on drums and Arthur Pala on bass, with Rami handling some bass parts; a remix team called The Fund Music with Shelby Archer contributed a significant rework that became the final version of the seventh track.
052 | Jessy Greene returns to discuss new album 'The Future Holds To Love' featuring Rami Jaffee
Q: What was your typical session like when you two get together to improvise and create?
They start with keywords and keyboards, improvise freely, then select and refine meaningful eight-bar sections, layering violin, vocals, and later adding Rami's sounds and effects to build the tracks.
