Name the most successful Seattle acts of the 1990's and there's one name that you may initially forget to include--but right up there among the Nirvanas and the Soundgardens sits a quirky power-pop trio whose 1995 debut took over MTV and the pop-rock landscape. As they gear up for a new high-quality re-release of that iconic debut album, Presidents of the United States of America's Chris Ballew and Dave Dederer join us to recollect playing Mount Rushmore, pranking Beck, and possibly inspiring Chris Pratt's Johnny Karate. --- Join us on PATREON for early access, extended interviews, weekly reaction mini-sodes, full bonus shows, and more ways to be part of the show! patreon.com/greatsongpod Visit greatsongpodcast.com for archives, merch, and more!
