Most episodes of this show are with someone that has had a long and storied career. I mean, that's kind of the premise of the show. However, the opportunity to bring Rhian Teasdale of the great Wet Leg, the best thing to come out of the Isle of Wight since The Who's best live album, onto the podcast was too good to pass up. We talked about deciding to pivot from your academic studies to studying rock n roll. We talked about becoming a headlining act on the strength of a single, absolutely killer song. We talked about becoming the next big thing in the middle of a pandemic. And, most importantly, we talked about the difference between American and British names for a frozen, whipped dairy treat. 

Life moves quickly for a young rock n roll band. Since we recorded this interview, not only has the band released their second single, "Wet Dream," which I can assure you has more blush-worthy lyrics than "Chaise Longue," but might even be more danceable. And you should get your dancing shoes ready because Wet Leg is coming to the US for THREE SHOWS!!
