E308 Riley Breckenridge of Thrice on Sharing What You Love, Avoiding Spotify, and Opting Out of Unhealthy Fandom

This week, we're scratching The Itch to explore some new horizons! We're joined Riley Breckenridge of Thrice, who just released their excellent 12th studio album Horizons/West. It's almost unheard of for a band to be this consistently good this far into their career, but Riley and his bandmates made it happen with a little patience and a penchant for... being a bit boring? Join us for an explanation of that, plus some talk about the awesomeness of Radiohead, the awfulness of the Los Angeles Angels, a grindcore band formed on a whim, and a bold prediction about St. Louis sports! Enjoy. And after the episode, check out Riley's blog for his top albums of 2025, and his clothing company for some sweet gear that most definitely should not be an issue for Major League Baseball.
