Oh, I'm going to go and What's up everyone? Welcome back to another episode of Lead Singer Syndrome. I know the world is very crazy right now and I hope you're

staying home, staying away from other people, doing all the things that we're supposed to do

wherever you live.

Man, it's wild.

Last week, we had a very intense episode.

I spoke to Olga of the Svetlana's. She's currently on lockdown in Italy. I'm sure you've heard over there is, well, they got it the worst of just about anywhere.

Maybe outside New York City now, that's something else.

But anyway, this week, maybe we're just gonna forget about it for a minute.

Maybe we need a little bit of an escape.

Maybe it's time to remember like a month ago when I talked to Bert McCracken of the U's,

today's guest,

when this wasn't in the forefront of every single decision

and every single conversation and every single newscast

and everything you listen to and watch.

So for once, maybe we will just put this thing aside for like an hour,

and we'll hear a conversation with one of the best

front man in the scene

a hell of a nice guy a guy has always been a sweetheart to me and a guy who's been man requested so heavily on

this program for years I think like three years ago or something we were supposed to do one of these and it never

happened but I'm really stoked that Bert took the time on a show day back I should

give you some context I think it was late February, maybe

February 21st. We recorded this one so just about a month ago and it's crazy
