138. Prince Daddy & The Hyena: Kory Talks Hotwire Trip Switch, Sabrina Carpenter, and Selling Out | Emo Kids Anonymous

from Emo Kids Anonymous Podcast · host Hosted By Amanda Valdivieso & Robb Laffoon

Welcome to EKA 138! Today we are joined by Kory Gregory of Prince Daddy & The Hyena for a wide ranging chit chat about their new album Hotwire Trip Switch and more. P Daddy has been one of the more requested bands in show history so it was a pleasure to have Kory join us. We discuss the differences between this record and Cosmic Thrill Seekers or I Thought You Didn't Like Leaving, the intentionality in the song writing, and if this is their best album yet (hint: yes). Kory talks about having to play the social media and press game and how it has changed over the last 10 years and whether or not he enjoys it. Also, Weezer comes up because of course they do. You won't believe Kory's Weezer hot takes! So brave, yet so true. This new record has been described by some (us) as "Fountains of Wayne on Amphetamines", while Kory says it is their attempt at a pop record. As of right now, Hotwire Trip Switch is our AOTY so it was a true pleasure getting to discuss it in detail. Look for P Daddy in your town this spring, as their tour starts in May!-------------------With multiple new episodes every week, Emo Kids Anonymous is your home for all things emo and everything else.
