165 - They Might Be Giants - John Flansburgh
Today on Obsessed Show I\u2019m honored to be chatting with John Flansburgh, \xbd of the dynamic duo that is They Might Be Giants. As you can only imagine my response when I received the email\u2026 \u201cHey, this is John F. from TMBG, and we\u2019d like to share our Book with you in hopes that we can figure out a chat on your podcast.\u201d Well spoiler alert, I was pretty excited to make that happen. Of course I said yes! Like I, many of you may know them from songs such as Istanbul (Not Constantinople), I Palindrome I, Particle Man, Birdhouse in your Soul, or even the theme song to Malcolm in the Middle\u2026 but today we\u2019re talking to John about their latest project. Their new book & album, which is fittingly entitled, \u201cBOOK,\u201d is a collaboration between the band, past Obsessed Show guest and Designer Paul Sahre, and photographer Brian Karlsson. I was lucky enough to get a preview copy a few days ago, and as I understand, this is only one of two copies of this gorgeous book that exists\u2026 so far! I\u2019m excited to learn more about John, the book, and They Might be Giants. So without further ado, here\u2019s my conversation with John Flansburgh.
