#hello hell

Part 2 of our scintillating discussion with Joshua Fried! In this episode we talk about all of the songs on 1993's Hello the Band EP, a CD of totally great songs that Fried created with John Flansburgh for the Hello CD of the Month Club! We talk about the subliminal secret of Sodium Mask, who brought the funk on Since You Joined The Corporation, the wisdom of Tom Vu for Town To Town, the wonderfully convoluted and elaborate history behind Lullaby to Nightmares, and the pounding drums of Hello Hello! Fried also tells us about his live Venue Songs performance with They Might Be Giants! Then we go into the creation and inner workings of Fried's current project, Radio Wonderland! GOODNESS GRACIOUS!
