Episode 870: Fruit Bats

Today we're joined by Eric Johnson, lead singer of folk-rock band Fruit Bats. We talk about their new album, The Pet Parade, which releases today, as well as why their music seems to be connecting now more than ever and even ways to be creative even when you're not feeling all that creative. Plus, Derek Minor is back—and he has a new grill (you won't believe the reaction he got). Plus, RELEVANT News covers the Dr. Seuss cancellation; we have RELEVANT Recommends, which highlights one of our favorite authors; and of course, "What's Jesse Thinking?" which is all about octopuses.&nbsp;</p>--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. <a href="https://anchor.fm/app">https://anchor.fm/app</a>Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/relevant-podcast/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/relevant-podcast/support</a> <p>Become a member at <a target="_blank" rel="payment" href="https://plus.acast.com/s/relevantpodcast">https://plus.acast.com/s/relevantpodcast</a>.</p> <br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
