We welcomed St. Louis native and insanely talented Lizzie Weber into the studio, and for a brief, shining moment, things felt like a real, professional music interview… and then we immediately derailed it with debates about Radiohead fans and whether anyone should ever call an album “the most important record of your lifetime” without being legally required to explain themselves.

Lizzie’s new album Wraiths in the Wake is a deeply personal and atmospheric project centered around the idea of “wraiths”—ghosts, spirits, and the emotional baggage that follows you through life. It’s thoughtful, cinematic, and layered… which is exactly why we tried our best not to ruin the conversation. (Keyword: tried.)

She talks about working with major collaborators, navigating the music industry as an independent artist, and why pressing vinyl in today’s world feels like trying to barter with ancient currency during a nickel shortage. We also get into her musical journey—from dropping out of college and chasing acting in LA, to finding her voice and building her sound from the ground up.

Then things take a turn—because of course they do—when Lizzie shares her “musical awakening” moment seeing Radiohead live. This leads to one of the most aggressively unnecessary debates in recent memory, where Riz explains his complicated relationship with Radiohead… specifically their fans. It’s the kind of argument that only happens on a funny podcast like this, where passion meets confusion and nobody actually wins.

We also go around the room sharing the last concerts that truly “locked us in,” from Nine Inch Nails precision to Tool (yes, again) to Brett Michaels somehow causing a spiritual experience with a harmonica. It’s chaotic, it’s honest, and it’s exactly what you’d expect from a funny podcast that occasionally stumbles into meaningful conversations between jokes.

If you’re into music, creative journeys, or just listening to a group of adults spiral into debates about bands they both love and resent—this episode of our funny podcast has you covered.
