In this very special episode, we chat with Rhett Miller (solo artist, frontman of Texas band the Old 97's) about the band's new album "Twelfth," which came out today (Friday, Aug. 21)! We discuss the "juicy" linguistics of that title and the significance of putting Dallas Cowboys legend Roger Staubach on the album cover. We talk about songwriting, and the new "Belmont Hotel" song in particular, as well as how he's been dealing with lockdown and livestream culture.
