Trump Lies in Joint Address & Rep. Al Gr...

About this episode

Michael Kosta explains why Trump’s joint session speech felt like a theatrical production with appearances by co-star Elon Musk, over-the-top trolling, and blatant lies as the Democrats helplessly wielded their props.

Critically acclaimed musicians, Julien Baker & TORRES, sit down with Michael Kosta to discuss their forthcoming album, “Send A Prayer My Way.” They talk about banding together during lockdown to create a country album, navigating a spiritual relationship with the divine, and writing a song about the unconditional love of a dog.
