The Record Player
Shuffling music has its rewards, but there's still nothing like listening to a good old-fashioned album, start to finish — and that's what The Record Player is all about. With every episode, we'll dig into the music of and story behind a single LP, with co-hosts Jeff Giles and Matt Wardlaw ("1991: The Year AOR Ate Itself") and special guests acting as your guides.

Episode 24
The incredible Rax King is our guest to discuss Sleater-Kinney's 1997 album Dig Me Out. But we're also talking about the other Rax King, a restaurant called Rax, the band Creed and the Lazarus of Christian rock.
Rax has a great new book called Tacky: Love Letters to the Worst Culture We Have to Offer. It's awesome, but don't take our flimsy word for it, just read the damn thing. While you're reading, listen to her Low Culture Boil podcast, featuring "Rax Facts" and everything you need to know about Twinkies.
She's got a Patreon that deserves your attention. Hell, we've got a Patreon. Join both, feel better.
