Undressing Underground/Platonic Polyamory

We recorded this a month ago but then I had to go to a bunch of midwestern noise shows and meet Jennifer in New Mexico to go to the Lightning Field. But now I'm back and this is edited and... it's online as soon as I hit the purple or mauve button on the right side of my screen.

Today we talked to Jennifer's friend from her days at Uproxx, Christian . He's mostly out of the game, favoring work with a local animal shelter over buying in-air wifi to urgently file a story for $30, but he's been left with a number of exhausting and hilarious stories about half-assed press tours, stealing food, editing local news, getting big timed by Jake Busey, and a story about a curmudgeonly Neil Young we're saving for next week.

We also ramble on as usual, this time about horror movie hosts, streaming services, and weirdo hipster eugenicists.

You can read some of Christian's old writing at Uproxx on their website, or you can check out his main post-pandemic passion, Star Wars miniatures, on his instagram.

Also, as usual, the intro and outro music is still provided by Tripp Nasty.
