Ravinia - 2024 season preview (Episode 959)

I last interviewed Devon Kay at Riot Fest 2021. Since then, Devon Kay & the Solutions have put out lots of music and done lots of things. This catch-up was long overdue.

Unlike our Riot Fest chat, we’re joined this time by four of the Solutions. Remarkably, they all fit in the backseat of my Mazda (perhaps not comfortably, but they fit).

While it’s true that Devon Kay & the Solutions is a great band, Devon is also a fantastically entertaining interviewee. Who needs filters when we’re all going to die some day, anyway?

Sincere Engineer at Taste of Randolph (Episode 969)

Before Local H headlined the second night of Q101’s PIQNIQ at Taste of Randolph, Scott Lucas returned to Car Con Carne for a quick catch-up.

Scott gives an update on the reissue of “Whatever Happened to P.J. Soles,” chats about the Lifers podcast and the Lifers movie (branding!), and discusses the strategy behind making a Local H setlist.

And after the show last night, I’m pretty sure that opening songs don’t get much better than “Everyone Alive” (EVERYONE! EVERYONE!).
