The Austin Chronicle is an independent, locally owned and operated alternative newsweekly that reflects the heart and soul of Austin, Texas.
Richard Whittaker and Amanda Palmer really hit it off. In part one, they discuss (at first, non-verbally) sucking dick, William Shatner, ukuleles, Morrissey, and Oasis on the radio. And they cuddle.
Here, they discuss fashion, wearing out clothes, multi-genrelism, band survival, Chrondoms, and how 2006 was pre-YouTube and pre-The Tweet.
Does anyone else think it is so cute that Amanda’s parents gave her the middle name “Fucking?”
