Hello!

I produce a weekly music podcast called All Time Top Ten. Each week myself and guest pick a topic and discuss and play our top ten favorite songs based on that topic. This week our subject is They Might Be Giants. My guests and I break down the band's career and play their best songs. Take a listen!

Here's the link:

The Weekly Feed's Kyle Meredith sits down with TMBG to talk about Nanobots, their album 16. The album finds the two Johns going for some darker lyrical content and allowing themselves a Peter Pan / Oedipus concept (that's not really true). We discuss both, their cliched rock star life, those learning songs they're so famous for, and the idea of hidden politics within their music.

Hello friends!

I'm interviewing John Flansburgh tomorrow and it's gonna be 20 minutes so I want to go in with as many questions as possible. 

Do you have any questions not about the new album (I've got those covered) that you would want to ask him?
