Dirt from the Road Podcast - Juliana Hatfield

Another podcast interview! From the Dirt from the Road description::

Juliana Hatfield (ex-The Lemonheads) and Brett Newski discuss splendid isolation, reincarnation, why death won't be bad at all, and being an introvert in an extroverted world.

I’m curious as to how this podcast came about given that Brett admits to only having a limited familiarity with Juliana’s career. Thankfully though it’s a good chat because he doesn’t blag it and the only hint of interviewer’s cursory Wikipedia research that shows this up is the “ex- The Lemonheads” bit in the description.

It’s available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Overcast, and elsewhere.

Separately, the written word survives the podcast era with Juliana interviewed by Tatum Jenkins for WERS:

(WERS): WE HAVE A BIG EMPHASIS ON COMMUNITY AND STAYING LOCAL HERE AT WERS. DO YOU FEEL THAT BOSTON HAS HAD ANY SORT OF IMPACT ON YOUR ART AND HOW YOU DRAW INSPIRATION FROM YOUR ENVIRONMENT?

JH: Well, I really like the changing of the seasons. I find it invigorates me, the cold and autumn, and the seasons can really influence my writing. I mean, I wrote a whole song about the heat wave a couple years ago, but it was all about suffering through one of our horrible, humid heat waves. Also, I like that artists in Boston are all about the work and not about networking. It’s not about desperately striving for fame. Everyone is low key and they just want to put their heads down and do the work. It’s not about hype, and I really like that.
