The one and only David Byrne came to talk with us after wrapping the world tour for his new album Who Is The Sky? He's been making work that's like nothing else for 50 years — Talking Heads, solo records, film, theater, and dance. And his new book is called Sleeping Beauties, about great ideas the world forgot and then rediscovered. Kate and Mark talk with David about food, what it was like eating on tour across 150 shows, the South Indian coconut fish curry he got good at during the pandemic, and lots more.
Some things that were mentioned on today's episode:
