“Because it’s, you know, the details that make the difference. It doesn’t really matter whether it’s the best food he’s ever had. But I did it. So it’s the best he’s had.”

Noisey’s Back & Forth #1: Annie Clark (St. Vincent) & Merrill Garbus (tUnE-yArDs)
First order of business in admiring Noisey’s first episode of Artist on Artist talk: Look at those amazing sunglasses. As if it wasn’t enough to have two of indie-rock’s most captivating stars wax poetic over Igor Chavinsky, nastiness in pop songwriting, and the aggravating attention to gender in music press, we get two incredible displays of fashion on top of it all. Clark and Garbus display some incredible chemistry here—Clark especially radiates flavor and charm—and the cross-interview makes for compelling television. Congratulations to Noisey for crafting such a successful debut of a program, and here’s to hoping they’ll never be responsible for something as awkward as the cross-interview between Slash and “Cone” from Sum 41 in Myspace’s Artist On Artist (link).

Fresh Air’s recent interview with Girls writer/creator/director/executive producer/star Lena Dunham in which she articulates a very thoughtful response to the criticism the show has received and also talks about awkward sex, her creative process, and tattoos.

The whole Mother’s Day show on Up with Chris Hayes was really great but this was an especially poignant way to end the program. History is the best.

Blocked: Judge Reins in Indefinite Detention
“To have the judge find that state of affairs unconstitutional was a profound relief, [author and activist Naomi] Wolf said in an interview. ‘To hear those words — it’s so true, it’s so obvious — it puts in glaring relief the hideousness, the unconstitutionality, the darkness of this legislative effort and others like it,’ Wolf said. ‘She is so completely, obviously right. It’s nothing short of treason to have put forward legislation like this, let alone to have had most of the people who represent us and our president sign off on this clearly, obviously criminally unconstitutional — unconstitutional is inadequate. It’s anti-constitutional. It’s dictatorial.’”
Finally finally FINALLY! Something good happened in the realm of civil liberties today!

A really great interview with former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich. Here’s part two.
“If people who are concerned about the increasing concentration of wealth and power in this country are not mobilized, are not visible, then nothing progressive is going to happen.”

This is utterly terrifying (and super unconstitutional). Here are links to the rest of the broadcast which I strongly suggest watching:
